Easy to install. Fit was great. Quality was perfect.

Price: Probably about twice what they're actually worth, but with convenience comes higher prices. You can find similar blinds for about $15-$20 in stores, but they were $30 on Amazon.

Packaging: Comes in a simple cardboard box like most blinds. Rod is taped to the inside top of box. Everything individual part is in a plastic bag except for the hardware which comes in it's own small box. They come with 2" sheet metal screws...not wood screws which depending on the application will lead to headaches.

Quality: Very sturdy. Not flimsy like other blinds. Actually white, not that off-white "alabaster" color. Brackets are thick metal ones that are painted white. These blinds should last for a long time & come with a one year warranty.

Install: The instructions aren't stapled & are just unorganized in general. The overall install is fairly simple. Place the brackets where you want, mark the holes with a pencil then use a 3/32 drill bit to make the holes. That process in itself took only a few minutes. The problems came with the screws that were included. As I said they are sheet metal screws & also 2" is overkill (1" to 1-1/4" is more than enough.) Against my instincts I didn't swap them out for actual wood screws. Even with 2.5" length pilot holes drilled, the screws would only go in about halfway before getting stuck & my drill couldn't go any further without stripping them. I opted to finish manually screwing them in with a flat head screwdriver of which it took me about 15-20 minutes...just for ONE bracket.

I ended up just going to grab some 1" #8 wood screws with flat countersunk heads instead of trying to use the 2" #8 pan head sheet metal screws the blinds came with. With the new screws I was able to install the bracket in about 10 SECONDS (5 seconds per screw!) The next problem came with clicking the blinds into the brackets themselves. As I said earlier the brackets are thick & sturdy. This creates a problem where the metal refuses to bend enough to click the blinds in. I had to put a ridiculous amount of force (almost my full body weight) just to bend the brackets enough for the blinds to fit. Taking them out was another test & I ended up have to use a flat head screwdriver, inserting it into the bottom bracket hole to pry the bracket open without breaking the blinds. These blinds are definitely not meant to be messed with...once they are installed just leave them be.

Overall it took about 45 minutes to an hour to get this one blind install because of the screws & super sturdy, thick bracket that refused to yield enough to click the blinds in. The blinds do seem to block the sunlight a little better than my previous blinds, but definitely nowhere near the level of an actual shade. The quality is great, maybe a little too great in some areas. There is an extra piece that allows you to secure the blinds when it's down (for those that live in windy areas) so that the blinds don't bang against the window & make that annoying noise.

So glad we found these they look great. Did have to change out all of the old hardware from the previous blinds 25 years old. Cordless seemed odd at first as I am used to the draw string style but these blinds in the laundry room are down and closed 95% of the time anyway.

Wonderful blinds. Order was processed quickly, packaging was excellent, instructions were clear. We watched the video just to make sure we understood the details. Installation was easy, only took about 15 minutes and they look fantastic on the window. Well worth the money and a big thanks to Lumino and Amazon.

I really like the quality and room-darkening ability of these blinds. They were cut perfectly to fit the inner dimensions of my windows and the valence is sturdy, well-designed and attractive. I found it slightly difficult to engage the mounting clips - it took me several tries to get them to click into place.
