Calyx Interiors Bamboo Roman Shade, 20-Inch Width by 74-Inch Height, Mandalay

My wonderful fiancé had to do a little finagling to get an exact fit, but other than that absolutely no complaints. The bamboo isn't too thin or cheap looking. Also, the cord, plastic bits, and metal bits are of great quality!!! I didn't recieve any sort of discount for my review. I'm just a happy customer, and remembering how much I relied on reviews to make my decision. If your looking for an affordable window treatment with great quality this product is what you're looking for!!!

I have some old ones of these. They have held up very well. One design I ordered in the past I really like. Another design I ordered in the past looks good but sheds bad so I am replacing them. I couldn't find old design that I really liked anymore but I bought these which are similar. Measurements are close to description. One blind that I ordered the slats were not all level. I could adjust to make them close to level but once I opened then closed again, the slats were out of wack again. Got it replaced. All blinds now are good horizontally and verticly. I like that the handle knobs are wood. They also included an extra narrow strip. I used them to cover exposed brackets. I just super glued them on. So much better than standard plastic blinds.

I am very picky about what I buy for my home. I always go for the natural material/fiber over a synthetic one when I can afford to, and after seeing the popularity of these types of shades on the rise again, I decided to give them a go. For my window I bought the 30"x54" shades in 'Dali Tuscan', and the width was a perfect fit, although the shades are longer than what I would actually need for my window. They easily look like they cost twice what I paid ($29), which is great considering my alternatives were curtains (would have cost me at least $80 for a rod and panel) or fabric roman shades (over $100 for the ones I liked) or plastic/metal blinds (didn't truly consider these as they are ugly).Overall I'm very pleased with these shades, although I would only use for an inside mount as the outside mount option involves gluing/affixing little panels to cover the hardware and I don't think the end result would be very polished or durable. I also laughed and threw away the cord holder, which was a cheap, unattractive metal piece that I would never put on my wall.

Works great by filtering the sunlight. Does not block it but filters as you can see by my pictures . Offers great privacy also. Ordered 5 and the color consistency is the same. Extremely easy to install and great quality. I am 100% happy with my purchase.

These blinds were the only bamboo ones that came in a large enough variety of sizes to accommodate my varying windows. Due to being out of stock when I placed my order, they came in piecemeal, and I waited until this weekend to put them up.The color is nice, and I had little trouble putting them up. When they say a blind is 31" wide, it's actually about 3/8" narrower. This makes it easier to install inside a window frame, but if you are installing it outside the frame, you want to 'round up' your measurements, or maybe tack on an extra inch to be sure the window is covered. The first 3 blinds had good quality screws, but the last 2 had apparently come from a different supplier and I had to supply my own after stripping half of them. Be careful when you uncoil the blind pulls; I made a rats nest out of 2 before I figured out how they were wound.These blinds are not opaque. You can see through them, although the interior of your house will be obscured and only outlines are visible unless someone sticks their nose against your windows. I am considering adding a privacy liner because I used them on the living room picture window facing the street.My main worry now is that the cat will decide I just gave her nice new scratching posts!

Great price, but they are hard to pull up evenly. However, they are attractive once up and filter light without blocking it totally.

Happy with these with one major caveat, they are near useless for privacy, so I'm glad I have curtains. At night, lights on, blinds down, it is far too easy to see into my room from the street below. And the visible detail through the closed blinds is astounding. If you put these on your kids windows expecting them to at least pretend to have modesty, don't, you won't be happy (I'm thinking about my own kids, daughter specifically who destroyed EVERY mini blind I ever installed). If keeping the peeping Tom's out of any window, especially for your kids, use opaque sticky-back window plastic. That way, no matter if the blinds/curtains/etc. are closed or not, no one is looking at your kids (or you).

Great blondes and great price
