These are definitely an upgrade from my paper blinds. They look nice and way better than vinyl mini-blinds. I think these are a great budget option. Total learning curve to install them. The first set took me about an hour (finally realized that I was mounting with the lines on the back instead of the front - which is clearly stated in the instructions, but I was reading too fast and I was sure it was the other way around). The fourth set was done from start to finish is less than 10 minutes (and my level of expertise is just slightly higher than a beginner).

The website listing lacks a better description of each color available for this product. I finally got some clarification in the Q&A section. Evening Mist is a light-blocking color in contrast to the Morning colors which are light-filtering.
