I have emailed twice about trying to return/exchange blinds and have not received any reply. Very frustrating.

Love my new wood Blinds!
June 22, 2016

Initially I ordered several samples of the faux wood blinds. The samples came quickly and I was able to choose just the right style. The measuring instructions online where great and easy to follow.
I ended up ordering several different sizes, and my order was delivered quickly and packaged very well.
The blinds were installed quite easily and fit perfectly. I couldn't be more pleased with Blindster!

A little disappointed
June 21, 2016

I'm a little disappointed in my blinds. The cellular fabric is very nice. The handles are a VERY poor design though and don't really work. I'm also disappointed in the internal mechanism. They are hard to pull down and louder than other shades I've seen. My mom commented on the noise they make. Between the poor handle design and being hard to pull down it's frustrating. I've thought about videoing them being pulled down and sending it to the company.

I'm sorry you are having a problem. I will call you right away to get this resolved. The shades should move easily and almost without noise.

Great!
June 22, 2016

The blinds came late but they gave us some money back to compensate for the late arrival. They were easy to put up and they look clean and simple, which is what I love. Makes the rooms look bigger.

Great company.
July 22, 2016

I already have ordered two perfect fitting blinds from Blindster a few weeks ago. This was my second order, this time for an outside mount, which I was a little unsure of my measurements. I contacted customer service and Kelleyrepkied promptly to my question and got my order straightened out. I thought I was dealing with a big online retailer, but really it felt like dealing with a small business that still cares about customer service. If it weren't for Kelley, my order would've been wrong. Very impressed in the level of service.

Perfect Again!
June 21, 2016

Very Satisfied. I had purchased one blind (2' faux wood) for our upstairs bedroom about a year ago as a test run to see how Blindster.com worked. That experience was great. So, when it came time to remodel and purchase the remaining blinds, I knew exactly where to turn: Blindster.com. I could not be more pleased. We have some tricky windows in our house, but with Blindster.com's simple measuring directions all the blinds worked perfectly. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for window coverings. Oh, and the shipping was very fast with no broken pieces. Thanks Blindster.com.

Called Customer Service, She was very friendly, actually felt like I was talking to someone I already knew!
Got the samples, picked the one we wanted, called back and ordered, everything went great. Happy with the quality. Our shades are 42 inched wide and we ordered the cordless, not sure I'd do that again. Somewhat difficult when raising them to keep them level.
I would order from Blindster.com again.

Disastrous experience
June 20, 2016

Credit card charged two weeks before I received blind. Blind arrived incomplete, missing tilt wand. I was told it would take ten more days before my part would arrive. This is just unbelievably poor (bad) customer service. I probably won't order again and will tell others to use the competitor as well. No excuse for this lapse in service. The market place has the power to deal with this situation effectively.

Double honey cellular
June 19, 2016

I installed 40 blinds in my home from blindster. Every blind ordered was exactly cut to my specifications as ordered on the website. The double honey does an excellent job of keeping out the heat during the summer and really keeps my house warm in the winter. A great company and great product.
