❓ FAQs

Are these shades completely private at night?

They offer privacy but not blackout. For complete darkness, we recommend our motorized blackout roller shades.

Can I control multiple shades with one remote?

Yes. You can sync multiple shades to a single remote for seamless operation.

Are motorized roller shades safe for kids & pets?

Absolutely! The motorized lift eliminates all cords, making them fully compliant with federal child safety regulations.

What powers the motor?

These shades use a rechargeable battery-operated motor. A USB charging cable is included.
Motorized light filtering roller shades are the perfect choice for any room in your home. They're functional and stylish, with a retro feel that's fresh and modern.

Made in the U.S., our roller shades are 100% polyester with 1 pass acrylic thermal flock foam, so they let you control light while still giving you some privacy.

They come standard with a color matched continuous cord loop, but if you want to go cordless, we offer an optional remote control system & a variety of transitional patterns and colors that will work in any room of your home.

We use a fabric across two layers to create a close/open effect, allowing you to control privacy and light. This helps keep heat out without blocking out all the light!

“First shade was 4 inches short (my fault).”

EASY TO USE

First shade was 4 inches short (my fault). I had to re-order but only had to pay for the shipping of my new shade. My replacement was just perfect. Color was exactly like the fabric sample I was sent prior to my purchase. The remote was easy to use.

“I mis-measured on my first order.”

MODEL HOUSE

I mis-measured on my first order. I had to get the shade re-made, but it was covered with their warranty. I only had to pay for the shipping of the wrong shade and my new one. Great customer service. The shipping was a bit steep, but that’s what shipping cost. Make sure you double-check your measurements. I love my motorized shades. I now have my entire house stocked with these. Love them! Great look!

Blinds were well worth the money. At first I thought they were a bit pricey, but once I received them, I could tell I got a great deal! These are very well made and super easy to install. I have gotten so many compliments already. (I have them in my office). I am buying more for my home.

STAND ALONE

My contractor said that it was very easy to install my zebra shades. He actually purchased more shades for his new home. I typically like the look of shades with curtain, but not with these shades. I love how the shades stand alone.

SHOCKED- LOVE

We recently purchased two motorized sheer shades and are pleased with our decision to purchase them. Customer Service was very professional and friendly. We installed the shades ourselves and it was not difficult at all. Not only were the shades easy to install, but also it did not take a long time. I am still a bit shocked.

EXCELLENT

I suggest you order the free sample fabrics. You will get a better idea of the material and the colors. I love my zebra shades. This is my firs time owning motorized blinds. I will never purchase regular shades again. This company had very nice customer service(a rare find).

“My first shipment arrived damaged (not the company’s fault).”

GRATEFUL

My first shipment arrived damaged (not the company’s fault). FedEx recommended I contact the company I ordered with and I did just that. Affordable Blinds was quick to replace my shades. I am very grateful for the speediness. These motorized shades really delivered what they promised. I love this option.
