Vicllax 12'Wx8'H Outdoor Roller Shades, Cordless Patio Blinds for Patio Porch Crank Operation Sun Blocking, Black

This has only been installed for a day, but we can already notice a difference. We were looking for something that was affordable and provides shade/protection for the west side of our porch. Noticeable shade, cooler temperature, and lower glare when it is down. The hooks to secure the bottom are also a huge benefit. The instructions were pretty clear to follow, but it also isn't hard to assemble if instructions aren't your thing. The only thing I would complain about is securing the bracket with the crank, especially if securing to the underside of a pillar or ceiling and trying to get the shade as close to the edges as possible. When the bracket is on, there really isn't much room to get a screw driver or drill in there to tighten the bracket to the ceiling. The only way to get it tight is to remove the crank from the bracket, but make sure you have enough room to get a screw driver in between it and siding/pilar/etc, to reattach once bracket is secured. Other than that, I would recommend this and we will see how it holds up to the elements and constant sun exposure. The shade itself seems sturdy and opens and closes smoothly.

I love these blinds. The purpose of the one I have is to give shade from the hot afternoon sun. My front porch space faces Southwest. It gets so hot here in Southern Kentucky along with high humidity. I'm sure this will help tremendously. My neighbor installed it for me. I love it. Highly recommend. Easy to raise and lower. Come on Summer.
