PVC Window Venetian Blinds Strong Trimmable Easy Fit Child Safe Home Office - White 165cm x 150cm Drop

The instructions aren't fantastic as not in any particular order or well written.Everything is made of plastic and you will need to use all the metal brackets when hanging the blinds because over a span the top sags substantially.I found it helped to remove slats from the bottom that were gathering because the blind is designed for very tall windows. This made it look better and reduced the weight being supported.There are instructions for removing slats but it's pretty easy once you understand how the blind is constructed. At the bottom of the blind, where there is a plastic weight, the underside of that has plastic caps covering holes containing the cord. Loosen the cord and cut away the excess until you get to the slats you want to keep. Then slide out all the slats you want to discard before securing the cords and replacing the plastic caps.It took a long time to fit this because I had to cut down everything. The top and bottom of the blind, the slats had to be cut evenly on both sides and then there were a lot of holes to measure for and drill. I had to cut the length of the cord, which meant creating a new knot.It comes with two bits of plastic, which fit into the weight bottom from the sides. I wanted the blinds to not touch the window ledge so found myself grinding away the base of those plastic fittings so I could mount them flush to the wall. There was a bit of a gap between the mounts and blind weight so I carefully moved the plastic covers on the side until the weight was secure in the mounts.It looks as though these mounts are designed so a blind could be fitted to a sloping ceiling but it makes it look much tidier when fitted normally, it just means I'm not going to be raising the blind daily (which is fine for me).The last thing I found was getting the blind weight level across the span was difficult because this blind uses three pull cords, controlling the left, middle and right drops. I fixed this permanently by getting the perfect tension on each and then tying them all up in a single knot. I then removed the plastic pulls and pushed all three cords through one (I managed this with patience and a wooden kebab skewer). Then I tied a new knot for the one remaining plastic pull to sit on and removed the other made originally. It looks much tidier.Now it has been tweaked, it is fine and looks good. Even though it's not made of strong materials, it will last. The one positive about using plastic is that everything is easier to cut down, I used a Dremel rotary tool.

Great Blind, looks really good. Very easy to fit, just screw in the ceiling or wall clips, cut it to size and click it in place. It would be easy to unclip and take down if needed. I doubt you could find such a good quality blind this size for this price. My order was through the Blindsoutlet and they went the extra mile to ensure I was happy with every aspect of my order.

Okay I should know better by now, you get what you pay for. I bought a blind off of Amazon earlier in the year which was fab and was easy to fit, works well and looks good to. Needing a second one I tried to buy the same but either amazon or the seller invoked a £50 delivery charge! After much searching I opted for this blind in a 120 width.Took a while to fit trying to follow some indistinct instructions, but finally got it up. and yes I must say it looked good. However on the fourth test pull the plastic (yes plastic!) top bar snapped right where the pull mechanism is located (which just so happens to be the weakest point in the whole thing) and now the whole lot is in the bin. £21.99 in the trash....waste of time and effort.As I've said you get what you pay for....dont pay for this!

I've literally JUST put it up! My laptop was on the bed and I'm that impressed I logged on to review. My window was 100cm width. I bought 105cm and trimmed off 2.5cm each side using a hacksaw. Easiest thing I've done and you literally could never tell! If you're trimming the top, I'd recommend trimming the top bar by 1 or 2 mm (not CM!) for it to fit smoothly into the bracket. Saying that I didn't see any brackets in the packaging as I ordered this to replaced an old blind I bought years ago. So easy to install and looks very impressive! Works very smoothly! I'm impressed! Now to clear up this mess I've made....

The installation brackets are not designed well. The 195 cm long blind has a lil bit of weight and when you pull on the string to raise the blind the whole thing comes out of the brackets and falls off.. We have reinstalled it and try to straighten and reinforce the brackets that the blind slides into, but to no cusess.. as it was only functional in down position we have replaced it with another roll down blind. It doesn't look as nice but it least now we have a blind that does the job.. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT , until the installation components are improved. If that would be fixed I would buy again as the other parts works and looked great.

Wanted a blind that was made to measure. Quite an easy process, you order above the size you want and e-mail your required size within 24 hours.The blind came and was cut to fit very well and is a nice colour grey. The only thing is with these made to measure blinds is you get a rough edge on the slats rather than the rounded finish but once up it is not noticeable.What was noticeable was the sticker on the bottom which looked ugly once the blind was pulled and took an age to pick off in little pieces and then lots of elbow grease and nail polish remover to get off.A shame that the made to measure blind isn't available in white, had to go elsewhere for those.On the whole very happy.

I bought this blind to replace curtains, on the whole it is OK, remember it is 'just a cheap blind' - It does the things it is supposed to to - let light in and keep it out. go up and go down. However this one has the small annoyance that the turning post to adjust the slats pointing up or down stops working. the problem is the metal winder in the mechanism at the top comes out, and you have to remove the blind to put it back in. after several times of this happening I am thinking of resorting to superglue to hold it in place. My only other observation is it can be quite flimsy though I guess the shorter ones less so, but as I said it is a cheap blind and you do get what you pay for, however I would buy another one.

My faughter is very happy, thank you
