Review on Achim Darkening Temporary Pleated Shades Home Decor by Sally Bienz

Revainrating 3 out of 5

worth trying - blinds and shades

got 3 (for $27) as i have a bay window deal. I'm not sure if I like her or not. I had a hard time cutting off the excess (with a sharp utility knife) and then making sure the blind was centered before gluing it on. I then had to use nails to reinforce the stuck area. I varnished the wooden window frames so I could use them. They block more light than my vertical blinds due to the streetlights that the windows face. Well, in hindsight I probably should have gotten 2 roman blinds for the smaller windows where the street light is in. I didn't use the third one as I have furniture in front of the middle window and can't raise/lower it. For what I paid I wasn't upset but will continue to look for something else for my narrow windows. Also, I prefer the ability to open the blinds rather than a solid vinyl sheet.

Pros
  • delivery was very quick
Cons
  • no instructions
