I ordered blinds and was given a date of delivery. They said they would contact me if anything changed. Instead, for a month and a half I had to keep contacting them, only to be told each time the blinds would ship the next week. They never did ship after waiting all that time that I could have had them delivered by another more reputable company.
I had emailed with a customer service Rep who was amazing and very attentive. I told him the measurements of my windows (big tall windows) because I was worried I wouldn't be able to reach them and he said there isn't a pole that's made by the brand of blinds I bought but that he could add one to my order manually. We ordered and paid more for top down bottom up cordless. Fast forward. Blinds were installed (crappy install directions) and the pole I got doesn't even work with the clips They supplied me with. Meaning, the big windows are a complete pain in the $#*! and I'll never be able to use the top down bottom up cordless option on any of my blinds. I've called and left messages and no one has called me back. I've emailed early on and the last lady I talked to said for me to send her a pic of my pole and the clips they supplied me with and that she would come up with a solution. NOTHING I've emailed her back like she wanted me to a couple times and NOTHING. The online chat is even full and now they don't email WTF! They say you have a 30 day satisfaction window and I feel like they are dragging their feet. I will not let this go. I'm to the point where I want a full refund. Very disappointed after my mother in-law had a great experience (precovid) with this company

Please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com - I'll be on the lookout for your email and I'm happy to do all I can to help! -- Robin U, Blinds.com Social Care Team
I ordered my blinds May 4th, 2020. I go and look to see if I have any e-mails from them... yes just one stating that my blinds are being made... it's June 22 and I yet to receive my blinds. Took my money yet can't get ahold of anyone to why my blinds aren't here. I'm going to Home Depot next time least I know what I'm getting there.
Hi Melody, I'm so sorry it's taking longer than expected to arrive and its been difficult to get an update! I'm happy to look into this for you! Please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com and I'll do all I can to turn this experience around for you! -- Robin U, Blinds.com Social Care Team
I got a confirmation that my blinds were being made may 9. It's now june 17. Worst part is, they wont take emails, and they dont call back when you hold your place in line on the call. Just called, said they were closed. About 2 hours early, and 4 hours after they "held" my place in line. They had no problem taking my money, but cut labor for covid, destroying any hope for customer service and made the delivery times ridiculous. The only reason I gave them 2 stars, is because the last order went fine. I ordered 3 blinds. 3, and nothing fancy with them.
Hi Jarod, I'm sorry it's so difficult to get a hold of our team. I'm happy to help and please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com with your order information. I'll do all I can to turn this around for you! -- Robin U., Blinds.com Social Care Team
He worst company to buy from
We ordered blindes in April and still waiting for them. Its mid June now. At that time they promised to ship them in mid May.
Customer service is honestly the worst I have ever experienced, whenever we called - if - we get a hold if them and they say completely different dates and by now its obvious its just BS they make up. 10 times we got 10 different dates, and product never makes it here.
Hi Sara, I'm so sorry the dates have extended and it's taking longer than expected to arrive! We responded to your previous reviews and look forward to getting this resolved for you! -- Blinds.com Social Care Team
We are needing someone to contact us. We ordered blinds from you, waited 3 weeks and they were the wrong size. You sent out a replacement. 4 week to deliver. They are the wrong size. We cannot get anyone one the phone. Tried live chat. We paid $2300 for 4 blinds. Are you not a legitimate company?
Hi Jaclyn, I'm so sorry you've had a frustrating experience! We responded to your previous messages on Facebook and please let us know if you have any questions! We're here to help! -- Blinds.com Social Care Team
Buyer Beware-I need to cut down the size of the blind (from 34" to 30"). They will not cut it (will void the warranty). They will not provide the manufacturer or another party to cut it. My option was to buy a new one at my own expense or throw it out (too expensive to throw out a custom solar shade) no refund. You have 30 days. Exact measurement is with their consultant. Good luck finding someone who measures for them in your area (there wasn't anyone in my location). Nevermind the website indicates that the SUREFIT Measurement Guarantee is separate from their Satisfaction Guarantee, but they treat it the same. I am very angry and will NEVER BUY FROM BLINDS.COM AGAIN!
Hi Susan, I'm so sorry the size isn't correct for your space and I apologize about the confusion! I just responded to your previous reviews and want to make sure you saw it! We have a 30-day Satisfaction Guarantee for issues with quality, color, or style (more on this guarantee, here: https://www.blinds.com/satisfaction-guarantee) and a 30-day SureFit Guarantee (https://www.blinds.com/surefit). If there are any measuring issues, we'll cover the costs of a replacement order for up to 4 blinds or shades if the issue is reported to us within 30 days of delivery with our SureFit Guarantee. The only thing you'd be responsible for is if there was an increase in price (if a larger cut is needed) and you don't need to send the shades back to us. Unfortunately the factory is unable to cut down the shades after the fact and this isn't a service they will provide to us - I'm so sorry! I'd love to look into this further and help as much as I can. Please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com and I'll look into all options for you! -- Robin U., Blinds.com Social Care Team
Ordered my blinds almost a month now and already passed my delivery schedule date and my blinds still haven't send out yet!
Not very happy!
Hi Trong, I'm so sorry it's taking longer than expected to arrive! I'd love to look into this further - please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com and I'll work to provide you with the correct expectation and most up to date status. I'm so sorry I can't make out all the digits to locate your order from the photo alone. Please let me know if you have any questions - I'm here to help! -- Robin U., Blinds.com Social Care Team
Web site is great. Order is easy with no nonsense links. Clear instructions. The packing of these 5 foot blinds was fantastic! Arrived safe and sound and right on the date issued after order.
Value and price is exceptional!
I got great service, products just as ordered, no damage and friendly follow up. One blind package was missing valence clips and after a short tel call I received the missing parts in a few days. Will order from these folks again when needed.
Do NOT buy any custom draperies from blinds.com unless you are 110% convinced of the fabric and hardware selection. Make sure you get samples of the fabric first but even those are small and deceiving. Custom drapery orders ARE NOT COVERED by the alleged satisfaction guarantee that they espouse on their website everywhere you go. Everywhere you look it says "100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE. NOT 100% SATISFIED? WE'LL WORK WITH YOU TO MAKE IT RIGHT" That is BS and after the fact they will tell you that it does not apply to custom drapery orders. They will gladly sell you another set though if your dumb enough to buy twice. The quality of the drapery itself is subpar even for the price point but the fabric color is not even close to the online pictures and the fit and uniformity is about what you could expect in Tijuana. The pictures and description that they offer of the hardware is terrible. Worse yet, the antique bronze color is a complete joke. The grommets are black but the rod and the rest of the hardware is brass plated and doesn't even come close to matching. Do they care, not at all. I will say that the quality of the hardware was also decent for the price but you won't know what to expect until it arrives and then it is way too late.
If that experience wasn't bad enough, I tried to post this review on their website using the link that they repeatedly sent to solicit my review but they don't have the guts to post it. The response I got was, "your review cannot be published to the website, but. Our staff has read your review and values your contribution even though it did not meet all our website". They have ZERO integrity as a company.
Hi Brad, I'm so sorry you're not completely satisfied with your order. Please note, drapery is not covered under this guarantee and the details are listed on our website, here: https://www.blinds.com/satisfaction-guarantee. I was able to locate an order in our system and see drapes were delivered early last year, February 2019. I was also able to locate the product review from 2019. Our product reviews are moderated by a third party and we're unable to edit, change, or delete them. If the product review contains information outside of the product itself the review may be rejected.

This is a follow up to previous review. Since posting here a few weeks ago, the company has reached out to me and has rectified the situation. My special thank you to Robin who diligently followed up on my past order. She has credited my owed balance for ordered shutters to the original cost as stated on blinds.com website and has looked into the ordering protocol on the website. I have one more window to cover with shutters and will be ordering from this company again. Thank you for looking into this matter.
Hi Thomas, I'm so sorry you've had this experience! We always want to provide you with an easy ordering experience and I can see we let you down. I'd love to look into this further and forward your feedback and experience to our management team to review. Please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com and I'll look into this! -- Robin U., Blinds.com Social Care Team
Terrible experience with Blinds.com customer service. I was told when we paid for blinds installation that the blinds could be delivered to the installer's address which was a potential good back up for us. We decided to use the address of the home we are closing escrow on instead. Well, due to current lock down in place in California due to Coronavirus our closing date has now been delayed for at least 2 weeks. I called blinds.com to ask them to change the shipping address of our blinds delivery to the installer's address and I was told no that that was not allowed, even though I was told it was allowed when initially ordered the blinds. I then asked if blinds.com could delay delivery of the blinds until we actually moved into our new home and I was told no, once the blinds were made they would be shipped our immediately and there was no way to put our blinds delivery on hold, we had to accept delivery. Really! So now I am being forced to accept delivery to an address I do not actually live at yet, due to no fault of my own, and blinds.com does not care and will not work with me. I am already stressed out with moving and now blinds.com is adding even more stress to my move.
I truly regret ordering my blinds from blinds.com. Please be aware that blinds.com will NOT allow you to make changes to your delivery address and will force you to accept delivery even if you do not have the ability to do so.
Shameful business not willing to assist a customer. You have been warned and should think twice about ordering from blinds.com especially if you are unable to take delivery immediately.
Hi Joseph, I'm so sorry this is happening. Unfortunately, due to current events, our installation team members in California is not able to receive packages or resume normal business at the moment. Our factory located in California is also currently unavailable and this will delay the time your order is shipped. We just received this update yesterday about the factory and we're receiving new updates daily. We may be able to reach out to the shipper (most likely will be FedEx or UPS) to ask for a vacation hold as well. This will extend the time you are expected to receive the blinds. Please send me a message at SocialCare@blinds.com and I can look into this further for you. We're happy to do all we can to help during this time! -- Robin U., Blinds.com Social Care Team
Bought some blinds for my back door but sadly they dont roll up efficiently, always goes to one side and now the borders are broken. I wanted to return them but a couple of agents including *******@blinds.com are not answering emails anymore.
Hi Franco, I'm so sorry you had this experience! I'm not sure if you've received our previous replies to your other reviews but I'm glad to see a full refund has already been processed! Please feel free to reach out to us at SocialCare@blinds.com if you have any questions! We're happy to help! -- Blinds.com Social Care Team
The blinds are well made, and fit correctly. The color enhances our kitchen, brightening the room when closed, and ease y to open and close.
My blinds didn't fit the space and because of blinds.com guarantee they ordered me a new one.
Great service through the ordering process received samples quickly blind got perfectly
Answer: They are legit only their service is very poor and be cautious about their satisfaction warranty as it is not what it appears. You will be strung along on all custom orders.
Answer: No, I cannot. 2 months to wait for shipping. Nope, nope, nope!
Answer: I had same question with customer service, they said the labels are created when they go on production lines and can only tracked once they enter USA and was able to track as they said. I also ordered few economy blinds which are made in China for those blinds I was able to track all the way from China from the time they despatched. I reckon FEDEX has some technical limitations in turkey.
