Redi Shade No Tools Easy Lift Trim-at-Home Cordless Pleated Light Filtering Fabric Shade White, 36" W x 64" L, (Fits windows 19"- 36")

Got these to use as a temporary solution, years later have them in most of my rooms still. Have some complaints but overall the price and ease of them makes up for any of my complaints. The cons: - adhesive isn’t great. In some of my windows it’s never been a problem, but places like the bathroom, it has. Not hard to take a couple nails to secure it if you don’t mind putting holes. Fixes the problem though and they feel much sturdier. - I have had the string snap once, but considering how many of these I have, one breaking isn’t too bad. - Sometimes it can be finicky to get the blinds straight, but with some adjusting it can be fixed. Pros - easy to cut to size - easy to install, takes about 5 min or less. - privacy but still let’s light through.

We moved into a new house about 3 months ago. I had about a dozen windows to cover and I didn't want to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on blinds. After looking around and reading the reviews, I decided to give these a try. If you're at all capable of doing simple home handyman type work, installing these should be fairly easy. Measure twice, cut once. Your best bet is to use something with a sharp SERRATED edge to trim these. Then just peel and stick. I'm pretty confident that these would stick just fine to our brand new painted sheet rock with the included adhesive tape but I didn't want to take any chances so I used some 3M type double sided adhesive tape for extra insurance. In retrospect, this probably wasn't necessary but I wanted to be sure they stayed up. They work perfectly. They provide privacy. They filter (but don't block) sunlight, and they actually look really good. Particularly since they all look uniform on the exterior of the house, even as we've started adding curtains in some of the rooms. They are very easy to lift and lower and they stay in place. Time will tell as far as longevity and durability but so far so good. I will say that they probably won't last too long if you have rambunctious cats or curtain climbing rug rats. But for the rest of us, these are an excellent choice for blinds on a budget. Two thumbs up. 👍🏻👍🏻

These cordless pleated shades gave the room a cleaner look and helped soften the sunlight without making the space too dark. Installation was easier than expected, and the cordless design looks much neater. Giving 4 stars because they can feel a little delicate when adjusting them, but overall they look nice and work well.

UPDATE 1/21/2024 I had originally wrote this review in February or maybe March of 2023 shortly after I purchased these and started having issues. I just decided to update it because several more have failed along the way in a pretty short span of time with broken cords and adhesive problems and we have just lived with it. In fact, all of them have some kind of issue now that makes me wish I had never purchased them. However, when I went to the order to update the review, it looks like I may have never originally hit the submit button, so if not - here it is now. Oh, and my son, who originally turned me onto these and said they were great, and who didn't have any of the problems that I was seeing, has since experienced all of his breaking one way or another and was forced to move on as well. March 2023 ? I bought 7 of these starting back in 12/2022 and again about the beginning of February 2023. I have 5 of the 48" and 3 of the 30". About the only positive things about them is that they are pretty easy to install and the pleated design looks great. In theory, they should be a decent product at price point for someone who doesn't want to spend a ton of money on a higher quality shade and understands that these won't last anywhere near as long as those nicer ones. With that said... First off, the packaging is not sufficient, as the longer ones usually get bent or crushed in shipping - leaving a noticeable dent or broken plastic on the lower bar - sometimes in several places. Yes, Amazon will, and has replaced those, but time and effort is lost - especially if you don't notice damage until unpacking and possible already cutting. The product itself: I have had multiple issues with all of them, although the shorter ones are a little less problematic overall because they are slightly sturdier by nature of being shorter. However, they all suffer from several common issues. Like others have commented, the adhesive seems hit or miss for how well it secures the shade to the top of window frame. I had one falling down from the top every single day (after it was up for about 3 days). I would put it back up and press the adhesive lined pleat back in place, only to have it be back on the bottom of window in the morning. It is also horrible how the bottom pleat of shade is attached to the bottom bar, as just simply pulling them down a few times has lifted the adhesive attach points from where and how it is attached to that bar. It is the same on all of the shades - even the shorter ones. Just look at the video and photos and you can see how cheaply and poorly designed these are. And, contrary to some reviewers saying that the shades operate effortlessly mine do not. All of them have significant drag/friction in the mechanism as you pull down, and it really stresses the cords and the adhesive - as well as the cheap flimsy plastic the lower bar is made of. Other issues: As others have mentioned, the shades will not open or close to level (at least the longer ones do that for me). One side is always lower - sometimes significantly than the other in both up and down positions. Yes, I can frustratingly play with it for a while and get it about right, but it is not easy and I am very mechanically inclined. Honestly I shouldn't have to fight with these at all just to use them as designed. The instructions say that this problem is caused when the cord tension becomes unbalanced, and how to fix, but I can say that the fix does not work for this inherent issue. This is less of a problem on the shorter ones. The longer shades WILL NOT retract smoothly and evenly. They start to in the beginning, but about two thirds of the way up or so, they no longer have tension and bunch up. You have to struggle with multiple attempts to get them all the way up and they usually will not be straight when finished. Another example of a fault in the design of the mechanism. Lastly, the one in the photo that shows the shade that kept falling to the bottom because of poor adhesion (my surface was prepped clean and not the problem) just tonight permanently failed when the left side cord just broke while it was being pulled down. These shades are operated carefully, so this should not have happened a month and a half from installation, but seeing there is so much tension and resistance when you pull them down, I am not surprised. Again - look a the video and you can see the tension. Not one of mine operate smoothly and easily, and I can assure anyone that they are indeed installed properly. Well, that about wraps up this review. I cannot believe that many of these reviews are authentic, as they give such glowing accounts of how great this product is. That fact is that they are cheaply made, have a bad extension and retraction mechanism design, and just all around do not live up to the hype. I understand they are an approximate $30-$50 product and not the same caliber of product as something that cost 2-4 times their cost, but these should be much better than they are. For all these reasons I cannot recommend them at all. Sorry Redi Shade - you need to rethink/redesign this product and do better. Your customers should not be experiencing these common faults without you doing something to correct. I believe you have been in business for a good while, so no excuse to have this crappy of a product - or perhaps this level of quality control problem seeing that there are a good number of people who don't seem to have any issues.

Yes!! For the price these are everything! We actually has to stick them to the window due to our other shades but they’ve stuck amazing and look great. Super easy to pull up or down. They are exactly what I want to filter the light in during the day and add an extra layer of privacy at night. Nice white color. Cutting to size wasn’t the easiest but my husband got it done! They do hang a little bit uneven at the bottom but it doesn’t bother me

I have bought three of these - I think they are great for the money. I use them for small bathroom, laundry room and pantry windows in my house; rooms where I might want to just get a new shade periodically. The fabric is a nice weight and color, and looks pretty with the light shining through. They pull up and down easily, but one of them wanted to hang a little lower on one side when it was half up. For the price and convenience of the shade, I overlooked it. I would have given these five stars because they are so easy to cut to fit, to install; also, because they are remarkably sturdy for a stick-up shade and totally affordable. But hat little bit of crooked makes it only earns three stars.

I love these blinds. I have a lot of windows and A LOT of plants, so I love to have all of the blinds up all day, but I'm also on the ground floor of my building and need privacy at night. Raising and lowering 13 corded blinds every day is daunting, plus the cords have to be hung a certain way so my cat doesn't chew through them. These solved that problem right away. Pros: Can be cut to fit your window perfectly. The measuring tape stickers on the top were exact and they fit on the first try. Super low profile at the top. I don't have to put up some ugly plastic thing to cover them. Actually white, not off white. Goes up and down very easily. No cords, obviously. Cons: Ridiculously hard to cut through with a kitchen knife. I could only do one and I'll have to buy something better for the rest. DO NOT take the styrofoam out or the plastic will crack. Adhesive is not great, but that's easy fix. Just get something else. Doesn't want to stay all the way down and tends to pop back up about an inch, but I think this will relax in time. Max customer order! This is really annoying to me. I need 9 blinds in this size and the seller has a max order of 8. I had to get a friend to purchase one for me so I can finish my house.

I absolutely love these easy to install shades! They replaced some very old vertical blinds and the pleated shades give my windows an elegant look, while being very functional. They block the sun, but are thin enough to allow the light to filter through. It's so easy to draw and lift the shades by hand without the use of cords. They are sturdy and easy to install - no tools needed unless you have to cut the shades down. First of all, there are a couple of ways to install the shades. On the first set of three windows, I installed them inside the window frames with the use of the adhesive tape, located at the top, and they were sized perfectly. The other set of two windows were slightly larger, so I had to purchase larger shades that had to be cut down in order to fit inside the frames. It turns out that I didn't cut the first shade quite enough to fit inside the frame and rather than to try to shave a quarter of an inch, I decided to install them over the window frame. For the second window, I installed outside the frame without trimming and it fit perfectly. So, one of the shades shows a slight gap when you look at it from the side, but it still looks good. For uniformity, it's better to trim equal amounts on each end of the shade. There are very thin cords inserted into the pleats and the measurements would definitely be off if the shade is trimmed on one side only. I used a cheap fine tooth saw to trim one end of the shade and the teeth quickly ground down to nothing. I found another old saw for the other end of the shade and both cut pretty well, although it was not super smooth. The caps are removable and snap onto the cut end very easily. Cutting takes a little trial and error; just measure well (there is a little ruler at the top), have a variety of cutting implements and take your time. I've looked at very expensive shades and I think these are very comparable. I love the color too.

Sorry to say these blinds are horrible. I should have returned them earlier. They are always ganging lopsided. Look awful. Now they will not go up at all. So diappointed. I will not be ordering these again. Too late to get a refund

I read all the reviews very thoroughly before ordering this blind and decided to listen to the good reviews and take the bad with a grain of salt and I am very glad I did!! I am so impressed! The hardest part was cutting the blind to the right size and honestly, if I had used a sharper knife it would have been a breeze. Even without the perfect knife was still pretty easy and only took a few minutes to cut it down to the length. The built on measuring tape was very helpful and once the blind was the right length, the actual install took a few seconds. I took the time to clean the top of my windowsill and stuck it on securely and easily. It’s been a couple of weeks now with absolutely no issues. The blind is straight and goes up and down smoothly. Just as important, it looks great! It lets in some light without being either too bright or dark. I will definitely be ordering more!!

I searched and found the most conveniently structured and eye catching pull down blind here on Amazon. It took a matter of minutes to cut to length and install… and it looks great! Highly recommend this design.

Super producto. Funciona perfecto y en menos de 5 minutos tienes una persiana muy bonita. Muy fácil de cortar a la medida con un cuchillo (tal y como muestran en el video). Fácil de colocar, fácil de subir y bajar.

You're better off adding an extra layer of tape or glue to ensure the shade stays up. Works just as described and it's great you can easily cut the sides to fit your window. The shade is nothing more than a thick tissue paper, and the top that you can cut off is made with polystyrene for ease of fit. Feels like something I would buy from a dollar store and for that, I don't agree with the pricepoint as that seems outlandish for the quality of item you receive. I'm happy I got this under warehouse deals for $6, as I cannot imagine spending any more for this. Other than that, it works well as promised and does the job. I just docked a start for the quality and regular price of it.
