SmartWings Motorized Light Filtering Shades, Work with Matter Thread Apple Homekit, Alexa SmartThings Google, Cordless Window Shades with Remote Control, Rechargeable, Custom Size, Fabric Sample

Wow. What an excellent product! I am a former user of IKEA shades and thank God they are in my past. What a confusing hot mess that was. These blinds are so incredibly customizable and were sized perfectly. They even close to the precise spot of my window frame. Extremely easy to install and to operate with many great options. They look fantastic and I am so thrilled. I am ordering right now for my other windows and patio door. Delivery was extremely fast. I wish I could even give more stars.

The media could not be loaded. I purchased one to test out and I was so impressed that I ordered 4 more. We purchased this with the zigbee z-wave motor so we could link it to our Alexa and It works perfectly! Installing these shades took literally 4 mins for each window and connecting them was very easy. This company is also very easy to work with, they are very accommodating. They have a ton of colors to chose from as well as light filtering material so I recommend purchasing the sample swatch.

The media could not be loaded. I had these shades on my wish list for a long time and finally bought them 3 months ago. Honestly, I wish I had ordered them sooner!I bought these for my bedroom. I'm the type of person who can't properly wake up and get out of bed without natural light, yet I live in a condo community and need privacy at night. With the Alexa integration, I have these set to close at sunset and open in the morning when my alarm goes off. It has made getting up in the morning SO much easier and happier for me.Installation was easy -- I made my boyfriend do it, but he's not that handy and it only took maybe an hour to remove the old blinds and install two of the new shades. The custom fit is perfect. I would consider myself moderately tech-forward and found set up via the Alexa app to be of easy to average difficulty. Setup of the included remote control was also seamless.Control with the voice assistant works great, even though Alexa says it's "malfunctioning," as you can see in the video. For some reason that happens every time I ask Alexa to control them, not sure what that's about. They have worked perfectly with no hiccups since the day they were installed.The 70% light filtration is perfect for me. If they are closed during daylight hours you can still see the inside the room, but they provide great privacy. They block direct lights from the outside at night (e.g. streetlights, my neighbors' porch lights) but do have an unobtrusive glow to them.All-in-all, one of my favorite smart home purchases! Highly recommend.

The media could not be loaded. My new house has several large sliding glass doors lacking privacy all of those ‘custom shades’ companies are crazy expensive. I decided to bypass the unnecessary markup and research shades myself. It was risky to purchase something of this cost sight unseen (the doors are all 95” wide which is too large for any ‘off the shelf’ option), and I’m so glad I did! The shades are beautiful and high quality. I’m a solo woman and had only my drill and got them installed in about 20 minutes or less. Their customer service is excellent and very responsive too- shoutout to Cherry!! I was looking for white shades that felt modern and not super “linen-y” that provided privacy but that were not full blackout opacity. The closest option was something like ‘safari ivory’ which sounded more yellow/cream colored. After emailing customer service they responded within hours and confirmed exactly what I needed (this one is the ivory). This shade shown also has the valance cover and the Alexa-compatible motor. The remote is sleek and easy to use as well. During programming it went a bit haywire for a bit but I was also messing with it a lot; after a ten minute break leaving it alone it returned back to working perfectly and has since.The instructions are also very clear and helpful, too. It has deemed a bit trickier pairing them to my Alexa, but I think my model of echo show not being compatible is to blame, so I’m going to add the zigbee hub to the new order to keep it easy (didn’t realize that was needed for Alexa even if you have lots of echos etc— so double check that you have the exact correct echo hub model or make sure to add on the zigbee hub in the order).Since it was a ~$500 purchase due to the size (still much better than the $2500 quoted locally for the exact same product!) I ordered only one to test out first. These were so lovely I ordered the second set immediately that same day and put it on rush shipping (Cherry— is there any way we can ship the new one even faster? I can’t wait to have them both up!).If you’re shopping around all of the amazon brands and/or local options— order these! You’ll be so happy you did.

The media could not be loaded. Initially, it was difficult for me to drill the holes needed to install the brackets. However, I managed to do it. I used titanium drill bits because I had to drill into metal. I used an outside mount. The hardest part of this entire installation is drilling those 4 holes to get those 2 brackets. The rest is simple. I even got the hub to work with my Google Home and have a solar panel powering the motor!

Bought these for my bedroom and have been really pleasantly surprised with the quality. The ordering process was pretty seamless, they reached out once to confirm my customization options and then kept in touch when the blinds were shipped. I got mine in roughly a week which is impressive considering they are custom sized and with a few custom options. Homekit setup was a breeze and the charging cord that they include is realllly long, long enough to charge the blinds without having to take them down if you've got an outlet on the same wall. Will probably buy more for the rest of my house, just great quality at a reasonable price compared to other automatic window treatments. MAKE SURE YOU ORDER THE CORRECT SAMPLE PACK - i first accidentally ordered the "zebra" fabric sample pack, which was stupid on my part and a waste of $6.
