Richfield Studios 2" Room Darkening Blinds

I purchased from Walmart.com, so was really able to actually see product before I purchased. Beware, these re very thin, although they are 2" blinds. I wasn't aware of that, also are curved. Other than that, if that's what you were looking for they will probably do the job. I'm waiting to see if they start to warp, so far they have been good, don't give off much heat. Easy to install. Here's something might be helpful, I needed about a 3/4 inch shorter. Was able to simply line them up, and use my circular saw and cut them - no issues no binding or anything. As far as room darkening, I think because they are so thin, they don't really give that effect, as far I feel. Anyway, hope this helps prospective buyers. I wish someone would have said they were thin, very thin.

Price caught my eye on these 2" blinds but to my disappointment when we received them they're just 2" miniblinds on steroids. They're thin like a miniblind but I was expecting thicker like a plantation. The price is ok for this product but with a dog at home they won't last long. So...they're going back. Please have better description on items online or pics of all angles of the product.

Mounting hardware is just two metal brackets, which are difficult to remove from blinds where they are stored while shipping. Brackets are difficult to align perfectly to get the blinds set properly...I have 4 of the 6 sets of blinds improperly mounted, but working enough to where I (hope) they won't fall out of the window sill. The blinds "click" into one side, but don't click safely into the other bracket. Looks somewhat crooked, but I got tired of trying to do it over & over, drilling all these holes to re-mount the pathetic brackets. Blinds were "wood pattern" but NOT faux-wood. The thick material used to have the wood appearance is not used; it is simply 2" wide plastic pieces just like the normal generic mini-blinds for sale at the store. Maybe I didn't read the description properly, but I thought I was getting the thick faux-wood blinds. The rod in the blinds is plastic, I'm not sure if that's durable or not- even the cheapest plastic mini blinds at WalMart come with a metal rod for the operating mechanism... The blinds look good really because they are replacing yellowed, dingy and broken blinds. Otherwise I'd be more upset. I am pretty irate for the fact that I could have spent a few extra dollars and bought the actual faux-wood blinds; just thought I was saving some cash buying these. Would not buy from this company again.

I have purchased blinds for over 45 years and everyone I have seen or purchased come 1/2" shorter than the specified size. These are the exact size and I needed the 1/2" for adjustment. The quality is good, but I would have to trim every slat as well as the header.

Very sturdy and great appearance. I was disappointed because three of my windows are unusual sizes and I couldn't get the right size. I took a chance and ordered enough for my house, knowing that three would be too long. My dad is extremely handy. He took the blade off his saw and put it on backwards so it wouldn't splinter the blind. Then used a few c clamps to hold it tight when he cut it on the table mounted circle saw. He was able to trim off 3/4 inch the ends we popped out and put back into the ends of the trimmed one. Custom sizing at a very cheap price, what more can you want?
