Highest Rated Honeycomb Cellular Shades
What Our Highest Rated Cellular Shades Have in Common
The products in our top-rated list change as new reviews come in, but the reasons customers love them stay the same:
- Darkness where it matters: Blackout cellular shades consistently earn top marks in bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms. Blackout fabric blocks about 99% of light, and side light blockers help reduce the glow around the edges.
- Extra insulation: Double cell shades trap air in two layers of cells, so customers notice rooms that stay more comfortable in summer heat and winter cold.
- Privacy without losing daylight: Top-down/bottom-up shades lower from the top to let light in while the bottom stays covered, a favorite for street-facing windows.
- Two shades in one: Day/night shades pair light filtering and blackout fabrics on one headrail, so you can switch from soft daytime light to a dark room at night.
- Clean, safe operation: Cordless lifts are the most popular choice among reviewers, giving windows a tidy look with no dangling cords, a big plus in homes with kids and pets.
- A custom fit: Shades made to your exact measurements sit neatly in the window with minimal light gaps, one of the most common things customers mention in their reviews.
Best Cellular Shades for Your Needs
- Best for bedrooms: blackout cellular shades, ideally in a double cell for the most darkness and insulation.
- Best for energy savings: double cell shades, which add a second layer of insulating air pockets.
- Best for privacy with daylight: top-down/bottom-up shades.
- Best for day and night: day/night cellular shades.
- Best for homes with kids and pets: cordless shades.
- Best for hard-to-reach windows: motorized shades you can raise and lower with a remote or app.
- Best for edge-to-edge darkness: blackout shades with side tracks.

How We Determine Our Highest Rated Cellular Shades
Our highest rated honeycomb cellular shades are based on ratings and reviews submitted by Blinds Chalet customers. Customers can rate their purchase on quality, ease of installation and appearance, providing useful feedback from people who have firsthand experience with the product.
Customer ratings are a helpful starting point when comparing cellular shades, but the highest rated shade may not be the best choice for every window. After reviewing ratings, consider the features you need, such as light filtering or blackout fabric, single or double cell construction, cordless operation, top-down/bottom-up or motorization.
What Do Customers Rate?
Quality
Quality ratings reflect the customer's experience with the materials, construction and operation of their cellular shades. These ratings can provide additional insight when comparing products with different fabrics, cell constructions, lift systems and features.
Ease of Installation
Customers can rate their experience installing their cellular shades. Installation can vary depending on the window, mounting location, shade size and options selected, so individual experiences may differ. Before ordering, review our how to measuring guide for blinds and shades to help make sure your shades are ordered to fit your windows correctly.
Appearance
Appearance ratings reflect how customers feel about the look of their new cellular shades, including the fabric, color, cell size and overall appearance of the finished window treatment in their home.
How to Compare Customer Ratings
When comparing highly rated cellular shades, consider both the average rating and the number of customer reviews. A newer shade may have a 5-star rating based on only a few reviews, while another product may have a slightly lower rating based on feedback from many more customers. Looking at both can provide a more complete picture of customer experience.
Ratings should also be considered alongside the product features that matter for your windows. For example, two cellular shades may have similar customer ratings but use different cell constructions or offer different light-control options. If you are deciding between the two primary honeycomb constructions, our guide to single vs double honeycomb shades explains the differences in more detail.
Highest Rated vs. Top-Selling Cellular Shades
Highest rated and top selling don't necessarily mean the same thing. Our highest rated cellular shades are based on customer ratings and reviews, while our top-selling cellular shades reflect the products customers purchase most often. A newer shade can receive excellent ratings without having the sales history of a long-time customer favorite.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cellular Shade Ratings
How are the highest rated cellular shades determined?
Our highest rated cellular shades are based on ratings and reviews submitted by Blinds Chalet customers who have purchased our products. These ratings provide feedback from customers with firsthand experience using the shades in their homes.
What do customers rate when reviewing cellular shades?
Customers can rate their cellular shades based on quality, ease of installation and appearance. These individual rating areas provide useful information about several important parts of the customer's experience with the product.
Should I choose cellular shades based only on customer ratings?
No. Ratings are useful for comparing customer experiences, but you should also consider the features your windows require. Light control, cell construction, cell size, mounting requirements, lift system, available colors and optional upgrades can all affect which cellular shade is the right choice for your window.
Is a cellular shade with more reviews better than one with a higher rating?
Not necessarily. Average rating and review count provide different information. A cellular shade with many reviews has feedback from a larger group of customers, while a newer product may have a higher average rating based on fewer reviews. Consider both when comparing highly rated shades.
Are the highest rated cellular shades also the top selling?
Not always. Highest rated cellular shades are identified using customer ratings and reviews, while top-selling cellular shades reflect the products customers purchase most often. You can compare popular customer choices on our top selling cellular shades page.
Does single or double cell construction affect customer ratings?
Single and double cell shades have different constructions and benefits, so the right choice depends on the customer's window and priorities. Rather than choosing based on ratings alone, learn more about single vs double honeycomb shades and compare the construction with the ratings for the products you are considering.
