Ugh.  After trying out several in 2019, I ended up buying about 15 of these shades and using them in the bedrooms in our house.  They were nice looking and worked well for about 15 months and now the plastic spring holders are starting to shatter. In a month's time, I have had three brake and I fear the rest will soon start failing.  The unfortunate part is once one of these holders shatter, all of the strings get tangled and the shade is now useless.  As you can guess, I am beyond the one year warranty.

To make matters even worse, they are out of stock on the size.  Now, I either need to have mismatched shades or buy all new ones for various rooms.  I am so disappointed.

I am reaching out to the manufacturer and will report back if something good happens.  I would stay far away from these until then.
