I previously purchased a set of similar blinds from a different merchant. The look is similar but the great thing about these is that they are cordless which is important to me because it presents a sleek look. These were als a better price point which is always a plus! The only down side was the instillation, I felt that the install was not as easy and did I not feel that the bracket was as secure. Nonethless, I would still recommend these blinds!  I receive compliments about them often.
