Instant Feedback
I'm extremely disappointed in my dealings with Select Blinds. Pushed out my delivery numerous TIMES!
I've ordered several times from select blinds. The first time was for vertical blinds a long time ago. These were great quality but the head rail finally failed so it was time for a replacement. Prior to replacing the blinds I inquired several times about the quality of the head rail on each level of blinds that were offered. Very little, if any of the people I talked with knew anything about this subject and how the head rail types or quality varied across the different lines offered. One person offered me the old saying "you get what you pay for". So when I ordered my replacement vertical blinds I went to the designer line hoping for top quality as it was much more expensive than the other lines offered. To my disappointment the head rail in these blinds was kind of cheap, all rope driven and as result, not very smooth in operation The blind vanes were nice, much better than the material inserts I had before. So I raised my rating a level based on this.
Another issue that was difficult to work with was the packaging of the rope and chain. The rope was OK and I could finally straighten it out. However the chain was impossible to get into working alignment. It was like a very difficult Chinese puzzle to untangle. Unfortunately I had to finally cut the chain to get it straight so it would function properly Another unsatisfactory issue was the provided wall mount swivels that the chain and rope were suppose to work with. I had to cut them off as they were not even close to work the way I thought they should. FOR THE PRICE OF THESE UPPER LEVEL BLINDS, I WAS DISAPPOINTED.

We purchased 45 inch solar shades. I spoke to the gentleman three times to make sure that I measuring them correctly. He gave me specific directions as to how to measure our windows. I followed them exactly like he said. I never told him that these would be in set in a window. But I think he assumed that. For that reason we have gaps on either side of our windows, every single one. It looks terrible! And they will not stand by their product. I was told that I was supposed to read the information on the website at the bottom of the traditional solar shade page. I was never even on that page in their website. I will never purchase product from them again because the people that assist you in the ordering process don't know what they're talking about.

Worst company I have Ever had the displeasure of dealing with! The remote blinds do not work, the wire gets tangled and stuck in the motor! The company will not honor their warranty- they will not issue a refund- they will not even offer to fix them - horrible! Stay far away from this company!

A little confusing. Ordering was not an easy task. Customer service was fine when I got ahold of someone. I'm ok. I would order from you again.

Ordered blinds, they were the wrong size, they refused to replace them despite their FIT guarantee. Also their official return policy was "donate them to the Salvation Army for the tax credit." That was the official response from customer service! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY.

Had trouble checking out. Had to check out as a guest, but ended up entering the same information numerous times. Probably my error but frustrating nonetheless. I did get a prompt response from Select Blinds regarding my issue, so for that reason give them 5*

Their products are junk. Horribly made and cheap. They are not able to manufacture a large roller shade without a horizontal seam across the middle of it, which looks silly. It was comical how bad this shade was. The fabric is low quality. They had a great product in the past, but something has changed. I would highly recommend buying somewhere else.
Hello Jason,
We apologize that your Roller Shades did not arrive as you expected due to the large seam you see. On our site it states Shades over 73" wide and over 60" in height will have a horizontal seam. The seam is placed as high as possible on the shade, so in most cases, it remains hidden.

I ordered 4 motorized blinds for my yacht. Within 6 months one of the motors stopped working. This company says the warranty is good for 3 years. Don't believe them. They won't stand behind their product. I filed a claim and was denied. They said I needed to send a video of the reason it won't work.
ITS NOT WORKING! Stay away from this company. To many others out there that stand by what they sell.
Hello Dan,

I ordered 8 shades from they totaling over $2K. One shade was missing the end cap, not allowing me to install it. I've requested the part 4 times and I'm still waiting for it. The first time it supposedly lost in the mail, second time nothing ever provided, third time they sent the wrong part, and I'm still waiting after my fourth request, it was approved but nothing has been shipped yet. It's been almost 2 months from the time of my initial order. I won't be ordering anything else from them.
Hello Clifton,
We are very sorry to hear about the issues with your Solar Shades not coming with the missing end cap you assumed you would get and the poor customer service you received. I looked at your profile, and saw the end cap has been processed. My job is to make sure our customers are given 5-star service and that any mistakes made on our end are made right for you. I have gone ahead and refunded you $159.00

Late delivery by FexEx. Promised on Friday. Received on Sunday. Someone is paying for shipments that didn't arrive on time. I can understand one day, not two.
We ordered all our blinds from Select Blinds for our entire home in one transaction after ordering samples. We laid our woodwork piece atop their samples and it looked like "Moon glow" was a perfect match…. Until they're up on your windows and it becomes apparent that the sample color containing only 5 pleats didn't show what happens on a full sized window upon raising the shades… suddenly a garish cartoon-like yellow is striped across your windows! It completely clashed with everything. Of course there's no returns after they looked into my complaint. I furnished them pictures of our woodwork with their tiny sample, which looked fine and a picture of the shades up with the cartoon yellow. They offered a slight discount which was basically what we paid in the first place.
Another thing I dislike is how you can only raise and lower their blind by pressing and holding the button in the exact middle of the bottom rail. Others blinds I've owned allow you to grab anywhere on the bottom rail and move up or down, this is a huge inconvenience for our large picture window behind our couch. And it makes a large popping noise upon pressing.
Never again will I order from Select Blinds.
Hello Sharon,

Losses to scam are products of mistakes and we all make mistakes. The important step is what we do afterwards, the decisions we make after will either move us forward or hold us back. I lost $75,000 after investing in a fake investment company. Thanks to Moneyrecovery001 At solution4u Dot com for helping me recover my money back. Little did I even know that it's possible to recover lost coin.
They sent me an email that specifically said: (but then later would NOT honor what they told me in email)
"And just for sampling our products, you can take advantage of our current sales promotion -- whenever you're ready to order! There's no rush. If today's offer isn't available when you're ready to purchase your new window coverings, simply reach out to our Customer Loyalty Team and they'll be happy to apply it to your order at checkout".
Hello Liz,
We are sorry about any confusion you experienced with getting samples and placing your order. On our website, it states, "You can still get today's sales deal if you want to order samples first. In fact, we strongly recommend that you order free samples prior to placing an order. We don't want you to feel rushed into purchasing something just to get that day's promotion, so we will honor our best offer (including major holiday sales) for an additional 30 days. When you’re ready to order, simply build a shopping cart and contact our helpful customer service team to apply the promotion".

I ordered wood blinds and expected to have them in about a week. A month later, I still didn't have them. I called customer service and was assured that they'd be shipping in a few days. I NEVER received a notification but upon checking my order status, they were backorder for a month! I decided to wait, since I wasn't in a hurry.
Another month went by and still NOTHING! Select Blinds had not notified me that they were on backorder indefinitely!
I finally canceled the order. I called customer service BEFORE placing an order for a different blind and was told that the materials were in stock. 2 weeks later, they STILL ARE NOT IN PRODUCTION! Meanwhile, I was supposed to have them tomorrow! This company is a joke! They obviously do NOT have the inventory to fulfill their orders and don't even care to update Ethridge site to reflect this, before waste their time placing an order. I will NEVER order from this company again!

Due to website glitch my order arrived incorrect, i call the customer service they do not take returns because the order was placed online, the best they would do is charge me another $400 for the correct blinds, and will not take other ones back for a refund which is unacceptable, so would cost me $1200 for 4 blinds.
Hello Fernando,
We are very sorry for the experience you have had thus far with us. Our goal is to create a positive shopping experience and provide that 5-star service you deserve. What I would like to do is to have you please email me at brian.royston@selectblinds.com, so we can discuss the issues experienced, and see how we can make this right for you. I look forward to hearing from you.
I have purchased many blinds from Select Blinds and to be fair, the blinds have been great however, the controller they advertise was NOT what I got. I ordered the NEO controller but what I received was one that I can buy at Walmart.com for $39.00. I talked to customer service several times and while they will refund my money, they are making me pay for return shipping. It's not the money I'm concerned with but rather the fact they won't admit fault in false advertising and sending an inferior product to the one they are advertising. Bad business and bad customer service.
Update…. I was finally contacted through this review by the company and through several messages and explanations, they refunded most of my money and changed their website to reflect the controller they are now selling. I guess reviews do work! I ended up retuning their controller and bought another off Amazon that works much better.
Hello Robert,

The price is over double the last time I purchased the same blinds.
I gave a review of 1 star because the price of my blinds went from $30 each to $75. I kind of freaked out.
The reality is, not having to go to multple stores shopping when time is tight and being able to order the blinds at like 3am when I have some time is very helpful. The fact that they make it easy for someone like me, who can't measure anything accurately, to actually get the blinds I want and have them fit and make me look like I know what I am doing is such a fantastic relief. I am confident I will always use Selectblinds and recommend them to anyone that asks. A little stress relief in a busy life is huge! Thank you for what you do for us SelectBlinds!
The price is over double the last time I purchased the same blinds. I freaked out and gave a bad review.
The reality is SelectBlinds is super easy for idiots like me. I love this site because I can order what I need and get what I want without having to spend hours shopping various stores. I had to order my blinds at like 3am because of lack of time. SelectBlinds helps me relieve some of the stress in my life by making sure I get it done right the first time. That is so HUGE! I'm sorry if some people think they had to wait too long to get their order. If they would try ordering just about anything right know they will find they have to wait. I ordered windows and had to wait 6 months! Get over it. Place your order and forget about it. Your order will just show up and if you did your part right you will get what you wanted. As far as pricing goes, my windows were like 10 times what I thought they would be. I need to get over that too!
Great blinds so far. Summer heat will tell if they warp.
Onlky gave 4 stars because I was called and told blinds were backordered. I said cancel order.
They said. Well I cant guarantee they will be canceled. 2 days later they arrived.
All good though, I needed them. But dont sell blinds if you dont have blinds ready to be made.
