Blocks lightAngelaI’ve had some frustrating IKEA moments over the years, but I hated every second of hanging this blind. (I recently hung two curtain tracks on another window and it was straightforward and I LOVE the end result.) The first roller blind I purchased - yes I had to get two - I trimmed it to the width of the window as in the instructions, then realized I should have cut even more off. This was extremely difficult to interpret from the diagrams, and if I continued to cut I would exceed the maximum allowed. I had to go back and purchase the next size down. Getting the plastic end out of the roll to cut it is a nightmare. The fabric is so flimsy that my blind got crumpled while gently draped over the side of my table while I was cutting it. Be prepared for the pull bar to knick the bottom edge of the fabric as you carefully try to slide it in, and for the plastic pull to nearly slice through as you try to slide it on. I needed something to block the sun in that room, and it does that.2
Great blinds for our RVDeniseWe bought these to upgrade the blinds in our RV. They fit very well and certainly are a great improvement on the old venetian blinds5
Super easy install. TracyExactly what I needed and easy to install5
These are great!JessI totally renovated my RV and these work perfectly in my windows!! I love the ease of putting them up and how they roll up so nicely on their own. They block out all the light and actually look nice 😊 5
Affordable total blackout blinds plus the ease of being automatic!BethI previously had the roller blinds from ikea that weren’t automatic. These are the perfect colour match (beige) for my room as well as being automatic! All you have to do is pull them down a bit and they roll themselves up!!
Very easy to install using the template!5

Fonsterblad Roller BlindJaneI bought this roller blind to replace my previous Ikea roller blind that stopped rolling up properly after several years of use. After trimming it down and installing it I had some difficulty getting it to retract. The instructions are less than clear (diagram only) so I went on YouTube and found a 15 minute long video by Bhuvana Adi. I fast forwarded to the end and she had a great tip about how to set it so that it always retracts to a certain length (not winding up out of control). I was able to do this and I wish I had known this with the previous roller blind, it likely would have worked better for longer. This feature is not clear (it's illustrated in the diagram but without words it's hard to figure out what they are getting at.)4
Blackout shadeSharleneGood quality. Not too difficult when having to cut. Unless using very good scissors, suggest exacto knife and straight edge to cut. Installed a curtain valence over it.5
Roller BlindsMariaI'm very happy with my purchase at Ikea. My blinds look amazing and compliment the look of the rooms, especially because they block the sun 100% as I wanted.

Quick install PiyushI had researched the product online before going to the store. However, an IKEA employee helped me select the right size which was very useful. The installation took less than 10 mins with the help of another person to hold at the other end; mine was 60 inches wide. The spring mechanism works perfectly and it looks very nice.5
Helpful for reducing heat, hopefully saving AC moneyStephanieSo it has a smell that definitely needed time to dissipate when it gets warm. I am also trying to limit how much I open/close is as I am unsure how long it will last. Regardless keeps my room dark and cool!4
Great productDonnaThis blind is not only easy to install, it darkens the room nicely. It’s easy to pull down and goes up smoothly on its own automatically when you pull once. 5
Great blinds! KarenVery happy with our purchase. Perfect blackout blinds and a great price - easy to install and perfect fit! 5
Not goodDesireeThe measurments are very important and this blind is not the size it says there, also the edges curve making the light come in so they do not block the light entirely which ruins the purpose of it. I will be returning them, very dissapointing.2
Love it, but not good for ceiling mountAlisonThe blind overall is very nice and I would have given it 5 stars except for the right bracket. It does not "click" like it is supposed to. Probably not a big deal if you are wall mounting it but from the ceiling when you pull the blind down the whole blind comes out of the bracket as there is nothing holding it in. I made it work with duct tape which was fine as you don't see it behind a valence. I would have returned it but I live 1.5 hours away from the store. The right bracket is poorly designed so it lost 2 stars.3
Poor qualityJoeThese blinds are junk. Two of the three purchased failed to stay on the wall because of cheaply made wall brackets. I returned these for a refund. I would recommend these to anyone.1
