Installation was easy and I love that they are cordless. BUT they are cheap and not in a good way! Within a few days my toddler grabbed one of the slats and broke it. He didn't bend it...he broke it in half. The material they are made from is very brittle. Thankfully it was at the bottom where the excess length is so it's not noticeable but I'm not holding out hope that these will last more than a few seasons.
