Economy Room Darkening Roller Shade

All shades come with a continuous loop clutch - allowing you to easily stop the shade in any position. These high-quality vinyl roll-up shades are available in a variety of colors to coordinate with your room with a white backing.On inside mount roller shades the fabric will be 7/8" to 1" narrower than the roller measurement. This allows space for the shade to operate properly and is true on all brands of roller shades. You may compensate for this by adding to your width measurement and opting for an outside mount. On all inside mounted roller shades you will have a 7/16" to 1/2" light gap on each side of the shade unless there is a window frame, trim, or drapery covering this space.Color shown in picture is White RE1050.Hem Style is 4.

"After purchasing cheap roll up shades at a home improvement store, they fell apart or were pulled down by my young children with in a year. I came across these roll up shades and found that they were thicker in material and easier to pull down and up.
We have been delighted with the quality and the room darkening quailty of these shades. Install was easy. We were good to go in 20 minutes after taking them out of the box.
I would highly recommend them, especially for a kids room where durability is needed."

"My husband works shift work hours and our mini blinds were not blocking out enough light. We made this purchase to install under the valance and pull down in front of the blinds. It works Great!"

"I have only wonderful things to say about the service and product I received from Blinds.com. Everything was delivered exactly as promised. I was impressed from the moment I began to open the package-these people know how to pack an item so that it won't be damaged in transit!!! I recommend Blinds.com to everyone I know who is in the market for window coverings."

"These vinyl shades are good quality and produce good light blocking effects. I have had blinds on my west facing windows for several years and they still look and work great. I recently purchased another for a south facing bedroom. My only advice is to read the ordering directions carefully to ensure your coverage is adequate, measurements are exact (!) and you will not be disappointed. I added an extra couple of inches on the length and width for outside mounts and am very happy with the coverage."

"We were really pleased with the blinds, the ordering process was really easy; this was the first site I found that could make blinds as large as the window I needed to cover and the price was great. Its hard to find window covering for an extra large window. The blinds arrived in a short time...they look really nice too. If I didn't already have my other windows done, I probably would have done all my windows in these blinds. You can install and leave them for a clean/contemporary look or dress them up with/or a cornice board and panels. Plus there was so many options to choose from....not the typical shades you remember as a kid...they are really nice...strongly recommend if you want to dress your windows for less."

"Be sure to measure the inside dimension of each seperate (and use the naming function too!) window at the top. Most home windows with identically appearing windows may actually vary +/- 1/4" over a dozen windows - dont just measure one and order 12 of the same size!
Measure and name each blind (Bobs Bedroom Rt side = BBRS, Bobs Bedroom Lf side = BBRLS, Bobs Bedroom front = BBFR, etc.
I'm glad I did because all 8 of my blinds fit to where I measured them to, perfectly!"

"I liked this web page as they had sooo much useful info. Like a lot of rollers shades have a cardboard rod inside!! I just needed this old type shade and it is just like the old ones. ( It does however lack the pull string attached to the bottom of the shade...no big deal though.)"

"Had to get new shades for my bedrooms because we got new windows and they were thicker than the old windows - could not put mini blinds back up inside window casing. This website very user friendly with the videos on measuring and installing especially since I had to go from inside to outside mount window treatments. These shades serve their purpose, really does darken the room. Only complaint, they were not the EXACT measurement I gave them but they still worked so I didn't throw a fit - I actually measured with plenty of room on either side of the window so it worked out fine. I might be nervous about submitting the measurement for an inside mount based on this experience."

"I had heard a lot about this company but when I received my shades was quite discouraged about the quality as the rod was severely bent. I found this out after going through the work of putting it up in the room. I don't think this was a shipping problem but a poor selection of wood or dowel from the company. Not sure if I would purchase any other products from them in the future."

"We needed a blind to block out the sun from the 8'x6' slider window. Because of size of the slider, the blind is two vinyl fabrics stitched together. It is not the best look, and reeks of vinyl for a few days, but it gets the job done wonderfully. At that price, we can't ask for much else."

"I was so happy to find blinds that were odd shaped. Not even the Sears catalogue had them. We needed 29"x72"....very odd!
I googled blinds.com and found them! We love them...quite easy to install too!
The only thing that bothered me was that after installing them, the centre pull-down flap was not lying flat.....it's going down though.
Not a problem."
