I ordered their Cordless Blackout Top Down Bottom Up Single Cellular Shades and upon receipt I was shocked how cheap they looked! To be honest they resembled the plastic used on the side of a window a/c unit! I called them to voice my displeasure and they assured me with their satisfaction guarantee we would come up with a solution. They sent me out some samples of their premium materials and after receipt of the samples I decided to take a chance and place another order. I was told by another representative named Jose that he would issue me a refund and we would start the order process all over again and he would do so affording me the same discounted price I originally paid. Then he proceeds to tell me my refund would be less a five dollar handling fee! Shocked by the pettiness I informed him that my intentions were to order blinds for my whole home and that if Blindster wanted my business they would need to waive that $5! Would you believe he refused and claimed his supervisor would not waive it either citing "policy"! So off I went to their competition and dropped $1700 on custom blinds! So they lost $1700 in business for an Abe Lincoln! They asked me to donate the blinds they sent to a charity so off they went to my local Goodwill. Don't waste your time with these jokers it's not worth clogging your arteries.

Avoid Deluxe Light Filtering Double Cellular Shades with Top Down -- We purchased 5 of these Deluxe Blinds and THREE of the Top Down mechanisms failed and became stuck - even with careful use or even very limited use. Blindster sent replacements the first time - but when one of the replacements failed, Blindster took over 2 months to decide to require us to ship back the faulty blind for repair - after first insisting that we installed it on a sliding glass door. More pictures later - no replacement. How are we to send back a 60" faulty blind that failed with limited and careful use. AVOID THESE Deluxe Light Filtering Double Cellular Shades. And don't expect BLINDSTER to honor their word.

The product was very nice and they were very helpful, giving us a wide variety. Price was 60% less than the company we contacted before. Product was beautiful. I would recommend them highly.
Description of Work: We gave them an order for Venetian wood blinds. In the first shipment, there were five blinds. One of them had slight damage to the header. Instead of replacing the damaged part, they replaced the whole blind. The headers were mismatched so we called them and they immediately sent out the correct pieces.

I will never use the product; so, it was a complete wast of money
Description of Work: Samples did not match what they sent me. Stitching was marginal

Response from Blindster LLC
We're sorry that you were unhappy with your purchase. I see in the notes on your order that you accidentally ordered the wrong color (color different than the sample you received). We offered the option to return the order for a full refund or to donate the shades to charity and we would remake the 10 shades in a different color for $15 per shade, a $238 discount. You declined both so we processed a 20% courtesy refund of $86.48 to your credit card on 1/5/16. Customer satisfaction is very important to us and we apologize we could not achieve your satisfaction.

Description of Work: Made pull up fabric shades for kitchen window for home in Vegas. You measure yourself with help via phone or website. You actually can have remade one time if you make a mistake. All turned out beautiful, I actually ordered dual pull-ups. They can come down from top or bottom. Not sure of date we received, but best guess sbout a year What did the provider do? Examples Dos and Don'ts

They were fantastic. They couldn't have been better. I called because there was a problem with a shade, they sent me an all new shade and didn't even have me return the other. They couldn't be nicer, they are just really great.
Description of Work: I got blinds from them. They were beautifully packed when I received them.
