I have purchased 3 of these blinds and am very happy with them. They arrived in good condition and were easy to install. The blinds (so far) are standing up to the test of use. I especially like the top down / bottom up feature.

I purchased the honeycomb single cell light filter shades for my office and one of the bedrooms. They provide privacy but still allow in sunlight, which is what we wanted. However, if you prefer your bedroom to be darker during the early morning hours when the sun rises, you should consider blackout shades instead.

I bought the top down/bottom up blinds, which have already given my apartment tons of compliments from neighbors who also want them. Easy to order, easy to install, look great.

I ordered over 7 blinds, all were cut to perfection and arrived on time. I was skeptical at first, but SelectBlinds did a very good job, I would order from them again.

I was replacing name brand expensive honeycomb shades bought from a design store that lasted less than 5 years. On a whim I tried select blinds and am thrilled with the result. The blinds look great, appear be constructed well and were very easy to install. Price was excellent and the products arrived right on time. Will definitely buy from Selectblinds again.

Measuring Instructions For Cellular Shades
Cellular Shades - Outside Mount
All cellular shades except VuThru
Width:
Measure the exact width (left to right) of the wooden or metal window frame or how wide you would like the blind or shade to be.
Make sure to measure wide enough as to cover the entire window and provide maximum light gap coverage. Example: if the window opening is 72", it might be helpful to order 76". This will provide 2" coverage on each side of the window.
There is no rule on the width of blinds other than to make sure that it is wide enough to cover the opening.
Fabric will be made at ordered width and headrail will be made at ordered width plus 1/4".
Write down that size making sure that it is the first number of the measurement.
Height:
Measure the height you would like the blind to be by measuring top to bottom.
We recommend adding about 3 or 4 inches to this number to insure maximum light gap coverage and to cover the window completely.
Please be sure to know that the height measurement will always include the headrail. Example: if the height ordered is 50", this will be the height including the headrail (from the very top of the headrail to the bottom rail).
You will want to mount the headrail above the window frame. Please make a note that some windows have trim that might interfere with mounting so it's important to measure above the trim if this is the case.
*width and length measurements may vary +/- 1/8"
