Cape Cod Roman Shade in Maple

The blinds are really nice. The wood has a rich brown color and is of good quality. The product is however missing installation instructions and also hardware to get it up.The packet had none in it. I will have to go hunting for some now.

I'm having heck of a time with this installation, the cord didn't come pre attached, and there were no instruction included. WTF?

This shade looks beautiful on my front door. Love the color too and I love that it provides a great amount of privacy, I was afraid it wouldn't. It is a little noisy when you pull it up but it's not something I can't live with.

It darkened the room nicely which is the reason i purchased this product. It's a little bit heavy to pull up and down and am a little worried that the string will break before the blinds wear out.

Mine does however have a cosmetic defect. There's about a 5" long section where a loop of thread that is supposed to be wrapped around the individual strips of bamboo is instead just sticking out by itself. There is no way to rethread it as the thread is continuous from top to bottom. Not sure it's worth exchanging for another even though Amazon is very good about that. I can probably either just cut it off or, with matching color thread, sew it so it hugs the shade and blends in instead of sticking out. I'll give it a few days before I decide.

Other than the sewing defect it looks good and rolls up easily. It will not block sunlight as well as blinds due to tiny gaps between the hundreds of individual bamboo strips. The hanging design makes it easy to install and adjust side-to-side and up-down in case you were a little off installing the brackets.

Might want to be careful with young kids around. The side edges have a somewhat rough finish and I picked up a small splinter just getting it out of the box, so small sensitive hands that like to touch and pull on everything in sight might have a problem with it if it is within their reach, and of course you will want to keep the pull cords out of their reach as well, as with all blinds and curtain cords.
