    My Roman Shades
    Delvia W.

    I redid my dining room and wanted to move from vertical blinds to roman shades. I searched online and several places came up. I usually get about three estimates when looking for services. The Shade store was one. Once I decided what I wanted I sent a request for swatches. The swatches came quick! A few days later Zach checked in on me to see if I needed any help; once communicated that I did, he had Amie contact me via email. From start to finish Amie provided A1 service. Her turnaround time with emails were quick and she provided me with everything I requested. Once I made a preliminary decision on type of shades I wanted, Amie setup the appointment for my measurements. The guy who came out to do the measurements wore his mask and when I requested he put on new shoe covers he obliged. He was pleasant and efficient. He sent Amie my decisions and she contacted me with her suggestions on what she felt would be the best choice so I could enjoy my shades. She then placed my order after review and final updates. She also scheduled my install that day. Day of the install was 24th August and it went smooth! My time was between 8 and 11am. The installer arrived on time with all tools, mask, gloves and fresh new shoe covers!! Woo hoo! The Shade Store stays ready! Once the installer was done he cleaned up his mess and bagged all trash! He even had a handheld vac! Impressive! Amie followed up the next day via email to see how my install went and if I was happy. My response was yes! Overall my experience was great! The next room is my kitchen and I will be contacting Amie.

    Absolutely delighted with my experience with The Shade Store. From the design consultation with Randy, to the customized and personalized at-home service for measurement and install by Adam and Phil, they truly brought our vision to life.

    Roman shade

    Randy the salesperson is very helpful and wonderful to work with to fit my budget. I can't say enough of her and won't hesitate to recommend her and the store. Paul the installer arrived within the scope of appointment. He is polite, efficient and professional.

    Poor quality demonstrated by the gap between the shades.

    Blinds To Go

    (24 reviews)

    After 3 years of not having "real" window treatments (used blankets, cardboard, etc to block the…read moresun), and being unhappy with the prices/service/selection at several other local and on-line blind stores, we decided to see what our local Blinds-To-Go offered. (summary and rating break-down, below) I wasn't really expecting to find anything there, but we were immediately greeted by the friendly BTG staff, and I began to feel hopeful. We were quickly introduced to Brittany Hall and she asked us questions about our needs and what style we were looking for. I felt very comfortable talking with her and I could tell that she was really listening to the details, without judgement. That might sound funny, but we've been to other stores where the salesperson offers something we specified that we did NOT want, or worse yet, tries to 'negate' our reasoning for certain preferences, with almost a condescending tone. That was not at all the case with Brittany. She patiently listened to my list of "requirements", asked a few questions for clarity, waited while we worked out an answer, and then she took out a book and pointed to two swatches, which were EXACTLY what we had pictured! She even read the fabric content to us, because we were very particular about the materials. After we chose the shade for the living room, we gave her a few details about the dining room; she stepped away for a moment and then returned with a swatch that again, was PERFECT! After years of searching and numerous in-store encounters that left us weary and discouraged, Brittany was able to help us pick out just the right thing in practically no time at all! How'd she do that?? Once we placed the order and paid the deposit, there were a few days of phone calls, measurements, and follow-up questions. Brittany was patient, knowledgeable, and socially appropriate along every step of the way; (socially appropriate: gave us space to verbally work things out between the two of us, while being immediately available for more info, or politely interjecting with helpful information). So, "what about the blinds?", you say... They were ready, as promised, 2 days after ordering. Thomas Dent helped us with pickup and he, too, was VERY patient and helpful as we checked everything out to make sure the order was correct. We got them home and the first one took about an hour to install (start-to-finish). We are perfectionists and it had to be exactly right. The second window took about 20 minutes, as we had the 'experience' of doing the first one, and could check the first one for certain 'clearances', etc, to get it perfect, as well. The store service: 5/5 (awesome job, Brittany and Thomas!!) The materials: 4/5 (quality fabrics, meets our requirements; brackets disappear, but could be a little easier to work with; stainless chain is nice, but would have liked more color options for the chain; install instructions were mostly helpful) The color: 4/5 (good selection; our roller shades ended up being slightly lighter in color than the sample swatches, but negligibly so) The manufacturing: 3.5/5 (the "chain-link" on each chain was in the wrong place and it took a while to figure out how to fix the first one - tip: removal not necessary, see below; and, due to the way the bottom weight bar on one shade was installed in the factory, there are slight 'waves' that can be seen more with certain uplighting, but most people may not notice it. The other one is perfect.) Suggestions to BTG: - offer a display in the store that allows customers to view the sample swatches under different lights. Our choice looked pale grey in the store, but is dark grey-brown-purple at home. Fortunately, we had paint swatches from our house, so we used that to compare. Without it, well, I shudder to think... - give Brittany a raise - seriously, she's fantastic! TIPS to BUYERS: - Bring a paint swatch from home (we just painted a little 2" square of drywall with our colors & put it in a sandwich bag - you can keep it for other decorating decisions, too!) - Think about how you will use the window treatment day, afternoon, night, alone, with company, how the sun moves, room lighting, etc. - ask for Brittany Hall when you go to BTG in Deptford (she's like our Roller Shade Angel!) - Steel Sidewinder: remove the factory-installed plastic stopper discs, and if the chain-link is in the wrong spot, have two people hold the shade ends (or lay on a clean, flat surface) and keep pulling the chain-link until it is in a non-obstructive spot (the shade will probably flip around itself a few times). Then, install and roll the shade to the top and bottom of where you want it to stop and reinsert the plastic stopper discs on the chain (all unclear in their directions). We put two at each "stop spot", one's a back-up in case the other one breaks. SUMMARY: We're finally happy with our window coverings and, thanks to Brittany and BTG, it was actually a pleasant experience! We think the shades look great!!

Michael Halpern came out and measured my windows and said he would get back to me with a quote. A week later, he still did not get back to me with a quote. I had to follow up with the company several times to get a quote. This should've been my first sign. After signing the contract, Michael told me I would receive my shades in 4 to 5 weeks. After nine weeks, the shades were not ready. I had to follow up with the company multiple times to find out when my shades were coming in. They were full of excuses. Finally, they scheduled a day for install after me calling many times. When the shades arrived, four of the seven shades I ordered were measured wrong and could not be hung. I called and they said they would call me later in the day to explain how they would fix the situation. 2 days later I still did not receive a phone call. After I called them and they returned days later to install the shades that were measured wrong, there were still many issues. They did not supply me with the proper amount of remotes. They did not provide a bottom track for one of my shades. There were nails showing on the frames of the shades that were supposed to have caps on them. The day after the shade was installed the chain to open the shade broke. Finally, they came back to fix the chain and it still does not work. They brought a piece of trim that belongs a floor and tried to install that on the bottom of my window. I'm not sure that the owner, Roi Albo, would have that in his house. I asked him to come to my house to look at the windows that and he will not schedule a time. I still do not have the bottom rail to one of my shades. I also still do not have the proper remote. One shade will not open because the chain is faulty. I would not recommend this company to anyone and cannot possibly understand how they can run a business like this. The only positive experience I've had has been with the installers. They are very friendly and nice.

However, the shutters that were delivered and installed contain 3-inch louvers, which materially differ from what I contracted for. At no point was I notified -- verbally or in writing -- of any change to the louver size. I did not approve any modification to the original order, nor did I receive any written amendment, disclosure, or authorization reflecting this change. The merchant is now claiming that their designer informed my husband that the louvers "needed to be" 3 inches. This statement is categorically false. No such conversation occurred, and even if it had, there is no written documentation to support a change to the signed contract. I would never authorize a material alteration to a $6,000 purchase without written confirmation. After this dispute arose, I reviewed publicly available consumer feedback, including Google reviews and AI-generated summaries of customer complaints. These sources reflect that other customers have reported receiving products that did not match their original specifications, including shutter size discrepancies, post-contract changes, and claims of undocumented verbal approvals.
