Cordless Roman Window Shade, Belgian Flax, 27"W x 64"H

I really love these shades. They install in about 3 minutes. Which was great because I bought 18 of them. My 1920 house I bought needed shades right after I moved in. These are well made, look much more expensive than they are and I get many compliments on them. They fold up nicely when you open them and the material looks like a good quality linen. Delivery was very fast considering that I was ordering so many and the color matched on all of them. That was another thing that I had been worried about. They're easy to dust and after a few months they're holding up and looking brand new. I bought the taupe and it's a cool beige that blends with everything.

I am obsessed with these Roman shades! I originally bought one for my little kitchen window, immediately came back and bought two more for my master bedroom. Will be buying more for my other bedrooms. Installation was sort of a pain the @$$ but so worth it! The material is beautiful, they came wrinkle free and ready to hang. High end look without the high end price tag! I do have blackout curtains in my bedroom as well for extra privacy and room darkening. Highly recommend.

I put this shade in my baby’s nursery because I wanted something light filtering behind the blackout curtains. The color is beautiful and pulls slightly pink in the evenings but I don’t mind it. It’s not completely level when pulled all the way down and I can definitely notice it, but I wasn’t too worried since I’ll probably have to replace it at some point when my kiddo yanks a little too hard. It was easy to put up, and fits the window nicely. I like that the fabric is lightweight and lets in the right amount of light without being too bright.

Install was pretty easy and they look as pictured. These are my first cordless and they work as advertised

I ordered 2 of these shades and 1 came in wrong, they reordered and had it next day. The 1 star is not about that, but these are the ugliest shades I’ve seen. Looks nothing like the picture looked like a good value, but was not even worth what I paid. Looks very cheap. Look at the picture of what I got vs the picture they are selling.

I'm quite happy with this window shade (36" Belgian Flax, Light Filtering). I did an Outside Mount, so I got a shade that is just a little wider than the inside edge of my window frame, and that worked well. (The metal headrail at the top sticks out about 1.75" when installed, and the fabric hangs down from the front of that, but the white-fabric backing hangs down flush to the window frame, so it gives you privacy at the edges.) The shade is sort of wrinkled, but I'm hoping it will smooth out, as I just installed it. If it doesn't smooth out on its own, I might try to iron it on low heat. I did have a little trouble when trying to fasten the metal brackets to the top of my window frame, because I wasn't sure what size drill bit to use to drill the holes for the screws, and the first size I tried drilled a hole that was a little too small, and then the screw got stuck when I tried to screw it in, though with some effort I managed to get it out again. I wish the instructions told you what size drill bit to use. I tried again with a 1/8" drill bit and that worked OK. I also had a little trouble understanding how to snap the headrail into the metal brackets once they were fastened to the top of the window frame. One other reviewer wrote, "The only thing I had trouble with was attaching them to the brackets. The written instructions and picture weren’t super clear to me but I found a different version on the company website and figured it out." I agree with this comment. If you go to the Chicology website, go to the Help menu, and then click on "Measurement & Installation." On the next page, scroll down to "How to Install" > "Shades" > "Roman Shades," and then click on the PDF instruction sheet. This is clearer than the instruction sheet that came inside the box. (Picture A3 on that PDF shows how to snap the headrail into the brackets for an Outside Mount.) Another installation tip, though, is on the written sheet that came in the box, but is not on the PDF sheet on the website -- and that is the recommendation to position the brackets approximately 2 inches from the ends of the headrail. About the little plastic handle you grab to pull the shade down: When the shade is all the way or mostly pulled down, you can see that little plastic tab at the bottom. But if you push the shade up, at a certain point the part with the plastic tab will disappear behind the front fold, so you have to reach behind that front fold to grab the tab. I hope this shows in my attached photos. (The color of my shade looks pretty different in my photos; that's because of differing amounts of light when I took the photos.) ———- Additional note after having the shades up for about five months: I just LOVE this shade! My old shade had a rope I had to use to raise or lower it, and so I had to unwind the rope from its little bracket on the side of the window every time I wanted to move the shade up or down, and then rewind it again. Now with this new shade I just have to grab the little plastic tab at the bottom of the shade and push up or pull down, and it’s so easy and quick! Also, my photos showed that my shade was pretty wrinkly when I first got it. (I think that might be because mine was not in its original packaging, so wasn’t neatly folded up the way it was supposed to have been.) In any case, I never did try to iron it, but over time the wrinkles just sort of went almost completely away and now the shade doesn’t look all wrinkly any more.

Make such a huge difference, easy to install and the price point is hard to beat

Had this blind for 2 1/2 years now. Mine covers a large window, over 70in wide. I like that it lets light in but gives privacy. The chain pull runs smoothly. The one issue I have is that the edges of the blind are not hemmed or even glued to prevent them from fraying. My blind fits inside the window frame and so whenever the chain is pulled it rubs the edge of the blind, which has become rather frayed. Nice blinds otherwise, but in the long run this is a big issue.

I was very pleased with the look and quality of the blinds.I needed three.However I wanted 31 width as per the description, and received 34 with. After speaking with customer service, they were going to send me 3 more to replace my order and once again, 34 width.Sadly I just returned everything without reordering. The description on the box and contents both times were the wrong width.

I want to return it, it come in wrong color

A bit finicky to get it to fit the brackets - but well worth it. Quality is lovely. We mounted it to be a shade on a French door. It looks great.

Custom blind and perfect fit for a fraction of retail

Excellent quality. The color is perfect and fits window great. Such a nice touch to my decor.
