Revainrating 5 out of 5

Blinds look cheap/poor quality. Remote Hub Wi-Fi and app connection is extremely poor

First the blinds. They look quite flimsy and far less attractive than the product image on the Revain website. Guarantee 6 months. Blinds came with no installation instructions. If, like me, the blinds are installed in the window frame, it is very difficult to remove them. There is no place to push the pin at the end of the roll to push it out. You can try brute force or create a tool yourself like I did to remove the blinds. USB charging cables are long, but not long enough to reach the plug and socket on the wall. One of the USB cables (1 of 5) has been damaged and cannot be used. Then a remote wifi hub and app. Connecting the hub to our 2.4/5G network was very difficult. The device cannot connect to 2.4/5G combo WiFi, it needs a dedicated 2.4G network. Who else builds such a device? Very, very old and bad technology, very bad compatibility. After several hours of Wi-Fi setup, I connected the hub. But it turned out to be a waste of time. The app (iOS in our case) is made for an old iOS device. For example, on the newer iPad, the app takes up a small portion of the screen. The app itself does not add any value to the standard remote control we ordered. Mechanically, the Wi-Fi hub looks like a cheap piece of 99-cent plastic, and it's ugly. The speaker's sound quality is annoyingly tinny. I would think twice about ordering these blinds. If you do, don't waste your money buying a WiFi hub.
