Response from American Buyers Custom Window Coverings
Hi [Removed Member Name], The $320.00 you paid for the blackout no cord lifting system shades from Hunter Douglas is a great value. Not only do they have a lifetime warranty, but, I am sure your daughter's bedroom is very dark for her to sleep in. You will also pay lower energy bills because of the insulation properties of the shades. Unfortunately, you were interested in the much higher priced Roman shades with top down bottom up no cord lifting systems that are pricey. If there are any problems with the shades you purchased we will take care of it at no cost to you.

Description of Work: Bought the $199 deal for $500 worth of credit. Company shared messages and we picked a date and a time for services May 11th at 9:00am. I took off work to meet Jeff and he never showed up. No email or message on the board. I waited an extra day thinking there may have been a mix-up still no communication. I don't do business like this.

Description of Work: Jeff was very professional and helpful in picking the kind of blind that would best work for our window. He installed the blinds in less than an hour. We are very happy with the purchase and would use Jeff again if we need additional blinds

Description of Work: I purchased a $199 deal for $500 of Hunter Douglas custom shades, blinds, shutters in 2013. They did come out to the house once to take a look at what I wanted. The technician was friendly and nice to work with. He was supposed to get back to me with a quote. I thought the original quote was a little high and they were supposed to get back to me with a new quote but they never did. They thought there may be a different approach for what I was wanting that would bring the cost down. They were very responsive initially. I tried calling them several times for the new quote but never heard back from the company.

Thank you for your review. Having the options of what features you want in your blinds reflects the price you will pay. Hunter Douglas lifetime warranty gives you a quality product forever, and, when you are ready to sell your home, the Hunter Douglas brand will help you get the price you want to sell your house for. Looking forward to working with you in the future. Thanks again, Jeff

Description of Work: The service provider was right on time and had numerous samples. The quality is no doubt there. I was thrown for a loop with the price. I could have selected the cheaper product; however when I saw the Angie's list coupon of $200.00 for approximately $500.00 worth of blinds, I figured the price would be less than $1000.00 for 4 windows. Alas, we paid $1700.00. I think I could do better at Lowe's.

Response from American Buyers Custom Window Coverings
Thank you for your review. I enjoyed working with you. The Hunter Douglas custom shades were made in Cumberland, MD, with lifetime warranty and if there is a problem with the shade we will fix it or replace it at NO CHARGE. Lowes has a 2 year warranty and make s their shades in Mexico. Hunter Douglas pulled out of Lowes years ago because their salepeople did not know anything about Hunters products and options. When you are ready to sell your home, listing Hunter Douglas shades as an attribute of your home will raise the value of your home and the price you get. Thanks again , Jeff

Description of Work: Measured and installed Hunter Douglas plantation shutters. They did a good job. We did have an issue with the first set of shutters made. The size was wrong so they took back and reordered. Did have to wait a while for the reschedule but I didn't have a deadline that I needed it installedoes by. So I ordered in August and they were installed in October.
