I was looking for bamboo shades and came across these. I really like them, they look great and function smoothly. I plan on getting more. My only complain is that they are sheer and if you are outside, you can pretty much see right through them. I still really like them though, luckily we live in a quiet neighborhood. 

Pros: looks great, easy to pull up or down
Cons: sheer, can see through them from outside.
