These solar shades work well at reducing afternoon sun, for a fair price. The color turned out to be more yellow, less brown, than we had expected. In the past, we have taken advantage of BC's offer to send color samples before ordering. We were in a hurry this time. Next time, I will definitely order color samples first!

One minor comment about the installation instructions: they seem to apply to two different types of bracket, only one of which is actually in a given package. I don't understand why the sheet of instructions isn't specific to the one model that is actually shipped. The instructions were fine, but I thought it would not have been too difficult to make them even more clear. For instance, I installed two shades side-by-side. With clearer instructions, or with a practice run first, I could have made them perfectly even when fully unrolled. I can easily go back now and tweak them, but so far I haven't bothered.

We are super happy with our Pearl Ebony 1% sunscreen shades. My husband and I measured per online instructions from Blind Chalet website, my husband installed them solo. They fit perfectly and love the reverse roll verses the standard roll. They keep our sunroom cool & glare free. It took about a week to receive the blinds just as they it stated. Wish I did this sooner, now enjoying our summers in the sunroom.

I measured and ordered 3 sun screen shades. Installation was easy. The shades all fit and functioned as described. This is my second experience with blinds chalet. I would recommend them and I would use them again.

We love our new sun screen shades. They were easy to install, look great and block that morning sun that was killing us but still allows us to see our beautiful lake view. BUT, they are difficult to roll up. They’ll go up partially then we have to physically push them up.

These look absolutely stunning in my small sunroom. The taupe color is perfect. I plan to buy more for my all-season room.
