Purchased a brand new home and needed window treatments. I hired the a well-known local company to do many of my rooms but we could not decide what to put in my daughter's bedroom. Instead of the $1,000 price tag from the local company, we chose to go with these. It cost about 1/3 of the price and the quality is excellent! Installation was easy and overall the product looks high end and they do block the light as expected. Having the option to choose a specific size was a welcome change from most companies. Although I would have preferred an all white option, to match my woodwork, I went with the ivory and chose to use the white side facing inward. This way only the rails are cream and the rest is white and it looks fine. You have the option to purchase ivory or linen. I highly recommend these shades! Wish I had trusted the product sooner and saved myself thousands of dollars. Thanks Jossandmain!
