Customer Reviews for Home Decorators Collection Chestnut Cordless Premium Faux Wood blinds with 2.5 in. Slats - 30 in. W x 72 in. L (Actual Size 29.5 in. W x 72 in. L)

These are nice blinds; however, the instructions need to explicitly say that the end caps on the main housing are NOT optional - without the caps, the blinds may fall. They supply rigidity to the channel and make it connect correctly with the hanger. In the picture, note that I was installing two of these end-to-end on a double window, so I figured I'd omit the caps. After I snapped it in and tugged on the blinds, it fell. After some investigation I discovered that without the end caps the pressure fingers (red arrow) will position above the blinds instead of behind the blinds, and will not press the blinds into the catch hook. After installing the end cap, it spread the channel so that it fit correctly.

Love these beautiful faux wood blinds. Was not that easy to install but once up, they look gorgeous. Also love the upgraded valence. Would definitely purchase again. Perfect for investment properties.

I love it easy set up brings a uniqueness to the room and the ladies like the look lol

need 4 valence holder

Easy to install and looks great

The old end mount brackets were sturdier and were convenient if the drywall was not level. The new top mount brackets are weaker, and can open a gap in the drywall.The old style allowed for fastening to the header or the wall and could be adjusted easily.

Easily assembled, they were up quickly. The 2.5 " slats let in a lot of light and when closed with the slats facing down and in, blocks out light perfectly. No issues with light coming through the bottom. Definitely high quality vinyl + light blocking.

Poor quality. After just a couple of months the wand no longer works as the cord in the mechanism twists itself until it breaks (on all three blinds). And the plastic chips easily. I keep having to buy new ones so that they match. It’s a waste of money.

Good thing: Easy to install- drill holes, put screws, hang blinds. BAD THINGSS: 1) Does not close completely even in the CLOSED position. 2) I brought 2 of the blinds to in-store for cutting. The end result is ugly. The cutting edges are like chippings.

I thought the installation was pretty easy once I got the hang of it. Hung 3 of these in my living room and plan to purchase more for other areas of the house. Did not give full stars as I have no idea how they will last in the long run.

I purchased two sets and both sagged from the sun within a few hours of installing them. If you need blinds that will be in direct sunlight, DO NOT buy these.

Just finished installing six blinds. Easy and looks great. I love the lift mechanism and the tilting is tight. The rating for the room darkening is in the middle between dark and light. I’m guessing it is because the bottom portion of the blinds do not fully close like the top when tilted upward. The top railing cover is formal but looks good. It would be nice to have a modern look option. My windows are 34” and the side rails will need to be cut to fit since I did an inside mount. I love that the slats are 2.5 inches, so there are fewer to look through and clean. Overall, I will be purchasing more for the rest of the house!

Blinds wares within 2 days of installing them

I definitely recommend these.

Absolutely wonderful we love them!

I bought 2 of these. These blinds diffently not room darkening. These let more light in than the ones I have in the living area from HD. And they cut one two short and uneven. Would not recommend for room darkening.

I purchased 2 of these blinds on 10-25-21. 3 day's later they are already warped and they don't close completely! Definitely not worth the $151 I paid for the 2.

These are the cheapest blinds. They will warp in the sun within a month.

We have been pleased with these blinds. I think they are a good value for the money. We have 2 x 6 walls and had the drywall finished to the window on all sides. Installed blinds myself insetting them in the window well. Looks nice and clean. We opted for no other window treatments. Didnt give them a 5 because I dont know yet how they will hold up.

Very easy to install. Very well pleased with the blinds.

Happy with purchase

We love how these Faux Wooden Blinds gave our bedroom a new look and feel.

Great cordless blinds!

had to change the blinds in bedroom after adding small air conditioner. easiest blinds I have ever installed. I will order again.

I spent more than $600 for this blinds. However, after a few weeks of sun, they bent insanely. Cordless feature stopped working and I have no idea why. DO NOT buy these blinds....

Pretty nice once they are up but the bottom left is hard to keep even with the bottom right because there is no cord Otherwise looks pretty

It’s beautiful, great price, easy to install. Doesn’t go all the way down to the bottom of a 48” tall window.

They work great and we’re easy to put up!! Love them!!

I installed 14 of these at a lake property. When I returned a week later 6 had melted. The room I installed in does have really old windows and tends to get hot. Of course HD took back no questions asked but still a pain. I had installed previously in areas with better windows with no issues. So if you have better windows with higher UV filtering you would probably be fine. They are really nice looking. The stringless shade action is really smooth and price lower than you would pay for similar blinds.

Looks awesome
