Better than expected. I installed this myself (I'm 5'3" 118lbs) so anyone can do this. Super simple instructions. I decided to mount mine on the inside pointing outwards vs. on the inside pointing downwards and should have done the inside pointing downwards because it sticks out (see last photo). However, its not that bad, I can live with it but thought I'd point that out so that you wont make my mistake. Figure out the best way to mount your blinds before you install it. Size shown in pics is 48x48. the material is sturdy and very expensive looking, it can be wiped easily with a damp cloth to clean. It lets in just enough light during the day but will keep my neighbors from seeing into my kitchen. At nights, you can still see through from the outside when you have lights on inside but its blurry/shadows. Hope the photos help!
