^^ YMMV, my store cut my previous online orders, no issues.

They have been at 50-60% for awhile. Here is the scoop I got at the store. They are premium blinds and they discontinued carrying that bali today brand. All stores shipped their inventory back. They are NOT able to be cut at the store. The website now says this but it was not clear in the beginning. They have a metal top part and at least in Texas they cannot be cut at the store.

Also, I ordered 3 sets. All 3 came in terrible condition and I returned them at the store based on the top metal part being extremely bent and dented. Just FYI. Good price, but this did not turn out to be a good deal for me.

[galewskj]

Thanks for the information. I'll give them a try, but not hoping for much.

[anythingbut]

Thanks for very useful information. I am glad to hear that we can still return them to HD stores. For that and the price I will like to try my luck. Are Bali today mini, 1" or 2" blinds? Exactly what color is coconut? It may be too early for me this morning but I cannot seem to find any information on their site regarding blind size and color.

Edit** I think I found my answers. Looks like they are 2" faux wood and white color.

[jreule]

Crud! I ordered all I needed at 50% off thinking THAT was a great deal. May look into replacing ALL the blinds in the house for this price!

[purificada]

some good deals within. thanks op reps coming your way.

[racrboy1987]

Be prepared to wait on these blinds. Ive ordered a few sets of them, most recently ordered 2 sets on Sept 1st, and my status still shows "being processed" not "shipped"

pretty frustrating when they say 3 days for processing and 3 days for shipping...

also, hope you dont have to cut these, the stores can't, and when they ruin your set of blinds, you're left with a refund, not a replacement in store. Very frustrating last weekend when I watched them bend my 72x72 inch blinds...

[brownneck]

ordered 10 of them. Let's wait and watch

[promisezz]

I ordered about 3 days ago and they're already shipped!

[DENZEL]

I ordered several of these. I recently got two of the 23" ones. It turns out that one was 22.5" which is what we expected, and the other was 21.5" which is not what what we expected. Fortunately, my DD (who is my resident handyman) was able to make the shorter one work.

[jreule]

I ordered on the 5th and am still waiting for them to move out of the processing state. We were upset with our first order because we ordered 3 blinds. 2 were the same color, and the last was a completely different color, even though they all came in the same box, were marked the same, etc. We are waiting on the 2 new ones to return these ones that do not match. Lets hope the 2 new ones actually make it and they are the same color. We actually got the in design real wood ones . . . but our picture window needed to be ordered from another retailer because the window was too large for the ones on home depot. There was a difference between the faux wood and real wood, but really not much of one.

[darksire]

I just use a bedsheet

[lollerskates]

do you have bars on your windows too XD

[oldbean]

not having a lot of luck with homedepot blinds. Last time I ordered a deal on here this is what i got:

My parents replaced all the blinds in their house with these. They ended up paying about $400 for over $1,000 worth of blinds, and it could have been even more since they have some custom windows. My husband is going to cut them down himself - he has the right tools, it will just require some elbow grease, but the savings is worth it (and it's a big favor to my parents after all the times they have helped us out).

I agree with the wait - they took a week to ship and another week to arrive. Out of 14 boxes of blinds, only one metal head was damaged (though the outer box they were shipped in was totally shot to hell), and it will be covered by the valance and does not affect the slats turning or moving up and down.

she wondered how the shorter one worked?

[chunli]

she wondered how the shorter one worked?
probably not as satisfying as the longer one

[BigDreamer]

I need some new blinds

[izsony]

holy cow!!!!!!!!!!!
i actually paid the actually price for it couple months ago, I spent $500 for 6 blinds. :lmao:

[redshirt72]

In for 4. Thanks!

[coupon queen]

I found one that the width is perfect and so is the color but it is twice as long as we need.
Has anyone actually tried shortening one of these lengthwise?

[GunMan]

Got the one size that was not in stock last time.
Thanks!

[chong67]

This is what I been looking for. I might just use the 10% off at Lowes.

I need to get a nice 18w screw tool first.

[leo4deals]

Good deal if you can get them without damage... Mine came all dented and bent; had to return in store.
Very bad packaging for shipment!

[TwincH]

This is very helpful - because I found that Home Depot shipping is awful. I don't know why, but anything I've had shipped to me has been dented or broken or shattered or something along those lines. As much as I need these blinds, I'd rather avoid the shipping.

[!xobile!]

Can't believe they are offering another deal on blinds when they haven't shipped my order that was placed on July 14th.

[billm0066]

I just use a bedsheet

That's called white trash curtains.

[dhardawa]

These are the exact same blinds I ordered months ago that are still on backorder. Home Depot keeps sending me emails trying to get me to cancel the order. Right now, they are saying they will ship 9/28. We'll see.

[kingscorpio]

I need 32" or 33" blinds(width), so can I order the 42" or 54" blinds online and get them cut to my requirements in store?
TIA.

[Milky99]

can take some of the blinds be taken off..,, my window measure 34 W x 48 L... the blind measure at 34 W x 64 L........ only need it in my room so i dont care if it doesnt match......

[Chef_]

WTH? I'm in for 19 sets.

[Ras1112]

Will it work for french doors?

[dfree4371]

I placed an order and HD cancelled it because of insufficient stock. So I place another order, received them then found out they could be cut, so I returned them at my local HD. Found some I didn't need to have cut, ordered them and have been waiting for almost 2 months. The status shows "processing" but I keep getting emails saying they are backordered. Very frustrating. Thank God I'm not in a huge hurry.

[TheNewCzar]

Great deal. Been waiting on a sale like this for 3 blinds.

[intuitionx2]

I need 32" or 33" blinds(width), so can I order the 42" or 54" blinds online and get them cut to my requirements in store?
TIA.
No they will not cut them for you. you can only reduce the size by approximately 2" from each side. They have a metal piece that can not be cut. It does the tilt of the slats. This is not a DIY cut-able blind. Even a powered miter saw would tear them up. They use a special cutter that is made to block blinds from other vendors. That is each brand has it's own cutting tool. Generally the blocking mechanism is built into the head-rail of the blind. If they do not have you're size just skip it.;)

[marselsipod]

Ugh. I need a 60x48" blind but there aren't any close to that size. All of them are 60x72

[intuitionx2]

Will it work for french doors?
They are big for a french door. 2" deep :omg: but they generally have the base lock bracket in the box. They will be heavy and clap clap the door every time it is moved. Cloth or 1" blinds would be a better choice.

[intuitionx2]

Ugh. I need a 60x48" blind but there aren't any close to that size. All of them are 60x72
It's easy to shorten them. Instructions will be in the box. flat tip screw driver to pry cap. cut string, swap base for last slat then tie not, replace cap. :cool: Keep extra slats if you have kids or pets. you pan pull and replace damage slats too.

[intuitionx2]

Easy to remove extra to fit height. instructions in box. the blind will be 33.5" actual. perfect fit. measure top bottom, and the middle. It's funny how windows are not square.

[pasta514]

Giving it a shot. I hope I can trim the width...

[ppsagehen]

she wondered how the shorter one worked?

Always easier to take away then it is to add more on.

[intuitionx2]

not having a lot of luck with homedepot blinds. Last time I ordered a deal on here this is what i got:
Home depot's inventory control is terrible. They lose pallets at a time. I don'y see how they stay in business. It's that bad! :omg:

[ppsagehen]

In for 2 cancellations. At least I will be entertained by all the complaining. Thanks op.

[Ras1112]

Thanks a lot, I had doubts it will work for me and you just confirmed it :D

[DENZEL]

she wondered how the shorter one worked?She added a piece of wood to one side. Fortunately, there is a wooden frame around the windows area that covers each side of the opening so the fact that the blind is slightly off-center is not noticeable unless you really look inside the window frame. It would not have worked on a regular window.

[aqan]

Ugh. I need a 60x48" blind but there aren't any close to that size. All of them are 60x72
In the same boat.. ordering some.. hope its not too hard to shorten them.

[nolf66]

Any HD discount codes?

I think only the wood blinds can be cut. Mine had directions on the box for HD on how to cut them.
I haven't tried yet to install mine or see if any cutting is needed.

My wood blinds came ok. The one box was beat up but blinds are ok.

I had ordered 4 before between 2 orders to use the 2 discount codes and now
they are about $9 less on one order and $12 on the other.

Just ordered 4 more and have to put 2 blinds per window since its to big for just one wood blind.

[Nefandi]

I'm in for 7. I am planning on cutting them down myself. 29" actual size 28.5" it says, I need them for 27" windows. The 29" were almost 10$ less apiece than the 27" ones. I've cut blinds like these down before I don't think this brand can somehow be extra difficult or something. Hope they don't come all damaged or that I wait months like the July 14th guy. I wouldn't mind just having these blinds in the window. The expense of getting new curtains my girlfriend started talking about and got all excited never entered my mind in what the overall price of replacing blinds would be.

[mecit]

In the same boat.. ordering some.. hope its not too hard to shorten them.

It should be fairly easy to shorten these blinds.

[itsalladream]

You're telling me. I put Levolor throughout my house, which was built in the 30's. A couple of windows were off by almost an inch from top to bottom.:rolleyes:

[intuitionx2]

Just go on the side of caution. A little long still looks good. A valance hides the top :nod:

[njmom1]

i ordered 35x72 in coconut on sept 4 and it was shipped out on sept 9. the ups tracking number shows that it's scheduled to arrive sept 12. not such a terrible wait. i just hope it's not damaged or the wrong color or something like people here posted.

Yup. Not worth the hassle to me either. They all came in used/broken. Then when returned, it took 3 weeks to get credit back to my card. It is a good deal if it goes smooth, and they are delivered in new condition. Or if you don't mind all the hassle of returning. But I ordered twice, on the last deal. And both times, I had to return them. Not TC on the deal. Just don't get your hopes up too high.

Any idea if it's ok to screw/attach vertical blinds to a fiberglass exterior door? I believe it's a no-no for vinyl doors (at least it voids the vinyl warranty).

Yes, very easy to shorten them.

Awesome! I was just thinking of putting blinds on my room :D

[helllo2004]

Yes, very easy to shorten them.


:( 47 * 72 OOS.. only available in 48 * 72.. means i need to cut by 1 inch width and reduce the hight..


Is it possible to cut sides?(width) by 1 inch?

[chillaxtodamax]

:( 47 * 72 OOS.. only available in 48 * 72.. means i need to cut by 1 inch width and reduce the hight..


Is it possible to cut sides?(width) by 1 inch?

Yes it's possible...but most Home Depot's wont cut these. I was able to find a guy at my Home Depot that was willing to cut the metal valence. So, YMMV.

Check in the blinds details also. Some of them may say width of 48" but it real is
only 47.5". You maybe wont have to cut if you can get it to fit.

[pasta514]

I ordered six of these:
designview 42 in. x 72 in. Chestnut 2 in. Real Wood Blind

Any idea if it's ok to screw/attach vertical blinds to a fiberglass exterior door? I believe it's a no-no for vinyl doors (at least it voids the vinyl warranty).

No idea about the warranty, but that much movement will give a short life to the slats. They hang from a small tab.

Ask the builder says "you can screw into the fiberglass with coarse-thread screws. Do not over tighten."
Personally if I did this I would add exterior grade double sided foam tape and wall anchors. 3m Model #:411DC. Use a hole punch to make a screw hole in the foam. Clean surface with rubbing alcohol. The holes will hold better if you pre-drill them and use wall anchors. When selecting the anchors be sure to get one that works on thin walls. (Less than a 1/4") That fiberglass is thin and strips out easily.

The best option is to change the widow to a built in blind style.

And consequently the warranties offered on them were shorter. Really liked the idea though.

Do you think any type of vertical blinds would hold up with just exterior-grade double-sided foam tape if they'll never be pulled up and down (and very rarely opened/closed)? I'm tempted to try that on a 32x80 door.

[intuitionx2]

:( 47 * 72 OOS.. only available in 48 * 72.. means i need to cut by 1 inch width and reduce the hight..

The machine clamps the slats tightly and has a special designed circular saw. Not an endeavor of the light hearted without that machine. Even with the machine they have issues with strait cuts etc.

Its very iffy. The surface area of the bracket is to small. You could get the weight of the blind and the size of the bracket that would be taped. Then contact 3m. Also if it's painted or finished it will affect the strength of the bond. Most times paint will peel before the tape releases.

[sailhobie]

I also ordered the chestnut wood blinds (27"x72") but my email confirmation shows the faux white blinds. On the same order the 72"x72" chestnut came out OK though. I guess I can return them to the store if it is no good

Wow now this is what I call a late delay front page deal :D, they have had these prices for not just days or weeks but months :) At one point they actually were even lower about 2 or 3 months ago, I missed that and bought some blinds about a month ago for this price.

And for those wondering if the width can be adjusted, it definitely can. You can not take them to home depot to get them cut but you can do it yourself. I adjusted both the blinds and the valance that comes with the wood deseignview blinds that I believe are at the lowest price in this sale. Very easy to do with a miter saw if you ask me. if you really wanted you can probably take off about 1.5 or 2 inches off each side, but 1" would probably be the most I would go to leave some space on edges. I got the 23" blinds, smaller ones might have less room to work with.

Another thing, these blinds have so many strings to pull its bizzare, never seen such a thing and can be very frustrating if you use them a lot, there is 6 total strings, the biggest issue is the 4 for raising a lowering, no idea why u need 2 for each side (front and back)

[JimmyDonuts]

Looks like a good deal. I am going to give them a try. Thanks.

Not to TC but I only want help by providing more options for my fellow SDers.
Since these blinds CANNOT be cut in store and the size you are looking for is not available at Home Depot, then check out the Sears (http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_024C5347000B?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1&sid=I0084400010000100383&aff=Y) 50% clearance on Cannon Fauxwood blinds in White color.

I went to check them out in the store and they look similiar to the Home Depot's DesignView Fauxwood blinds. I measured the blinds and the width is 1/2 inch less than the width stated on the packaging. Which is what it should be. The valance width is exactly the width as stated on the packaging.

You can cut these no problem with a miter saw if you have one or know someone that has it. As I stated just before your post you can take off about an inch on each side from the 23" wood designview blinds, I am sure its the same for faux wood.

Thanks.

In for 12 blinds. Split my orders and used promo code (RESELLERRATINGS) which gave me $10 off $50. Hope it ships.

I ordered a pair on Aug. 11 and I'm pretty confident I will never receive them. Their website showed them as being in stock for a full 10 business days AFTER I received my backorder notification. That's some mighty fine inventory software at work.

Like others, I have received a couple of emails offering me the opportunity to cancel my order. I've contacted them twice and both times they've flat out lied saying they expected them to ship (first on the 22nd of August and then again at the beginning of September). These were for our baby's room (due this friday) so we had to go another route.

I ordered mine on the 13th and it got shipped today.

I bought the 60 in. x 72 in. Coconut Premium Faux Wood Blind if it helps.

Just as an update, the order I placed on Aug. 11 was officially cancelled by Home Depot today. They are sending me a $10 gift card for my inconvenience, which is better than nothing I suppose.

I found one that the width is perfect and so is the color but it is twice as long as we need.
Has anyone actually tried shortening one of these lengthwise?

Yes, I already bought several of the Designview Premiums and shortened all of them. Instructions for shortening are included and it isn't difficult.

Yay mine shipped!

Not real sure how to measure my windows. These can go inside the window or outside of the window, correct? If I decide to put these insde of my window, it needs to be 2" deep from the window nearest to the blinds?

Just a follow up - mine came today.

Awful packaging. Literally 5 of the boxes taped together - the boxes themselves offering absolutely no padding/styrofoam/etc. That said, none of mine were actually damaged - but one box was torn open by the UPS guy as he walked it up to my house (no damage though)

Of the 5 I ordered, only 3 of them were complete. One of them was obviously a returned item - missing several parts - and screws were used. The other was missing parts but appeared new.

I was told to return the 2 incomplete sets to the store and place a phone order for 2 replacements.

Hung 2 sets, overall great for the price - even with the hassle of a return/reorder.

They can be used either way, depending on the depth between your window glass and the wall. If you have any hardware (window cranks, etc.), you'll probably want to mount them on the outside of the window.

I figured out how to measure mine by google and youtube.

I used search terms <Outside Mount blinds measurement> because my window is only about 3/4 deep. Mine (if/when I get them) will be outside mounted.

I got a delayed delivery notification today that they should be shipped within 10-14 days. I ordered on 9/11.

I got my shipping notification at 1000 and my delayed notification a few hours later. Ordered the 11th as well!

105lb worth of blinds on their way.

I had to reorder 2. 1 was missing the whole box of mounting hardware and 1 had the end tore open like UPS dragged it around on the ground, I blame the missing box and damage on UPS as it looked like they tore it in shipping. After I reordered 2 I thought about combining the damaged one with the missing box one to only have to reorder one but think I am safer this way if next ones come damaged also.

Blinds came in earlier this week and have half of them up. UPS tracking was never updated, but I'm glad they came!

[Tammylynn]

Ordered 9/11 and shipping finally updated this week. Looks like I should be getting mine on Friday.

I used online chat to apply RESELLERRATINGS coupon code ($10 off $50) from a resellerratings survey to my order. According to the rep, I should see the refund in a few days.

took forever to get here, and i finally decided to hang one.... absolute garbage... the worst/cheapest blind i've ever bought.... paid about the same for blinds.com in house brand, and the blinds.com stuff is easily 10 times nicer at around the same price (if you wait on sales). I'll never buy Bali again, absolute junk.

[neemat124]

I bought two blinds to try them out. I was very happy with what I received so I ordered more for the rest of the house. It looks like the deal was restarted/extended thru 11/23. My second order actually had a lower per unit price than the first.

This is the one I bought to be cut: Bali Today 36 in. x 54 in. Honey Premium Faux Wood Blind. I purchased the Bali Today aluminum mini blinds when they were 75% off earlier this year and had them cut in store (they had a metal header as well)...perhaps it depends on store. Hope that helps...
The aluminum ones can be cut in store....different machine. If it is the steel 2" header they won't cut it in store.
