“Still waiting for my blind ordered 5 weeks ago and apparently dispatched 4 days ago. DHL apparently sent it to a depot in Leicestershire rather than Bristol! Website said orders would take 10-15 working days to be delivered soon be 25 working days and still no blind.”

“Blinds were fine found it quite difficult to seal around frame to complete blackout but eventually it was fine, blind movement very good and very easy to monuver altogether satisfied with purchase”

Thanks John! Really pleased you persevered with the sealing - it can be a bit fiddly getting that perfect blackout seal, but sounds like you cracked it in the end. Great to hear the movement is smooth and easy to operate. Thanks for sticking with it and glad you're satisfied overall!

“Absolutely delighted with the blind. Worth every penny”

Helpful Report

Hi Siobhan, that's wonderful to hear! It sounds like you're really happy with your new blind. When you find something that meets your expectations and feels like good value for money, it makes such a difference to how you feel about the purchase. Is this a new blind you've just had installed? Sometimes it can take a little while to really appreciate how much of an impact something like window treatments can make to a room, both practically and aesthetically.

“Perfect! better than main brand blinds at a decent price”

Helpful Report

“Fitting can be a little problematic on your own, but once you have found the best way you would not have a problem doing it again. The blind works as it should, but it was a little more expensive than some other some other providers.”

Helpful Report

“The measuring and ordering process was straightforward. Quote received and accepted. Blind arrived well packed. Easy to put together following online instructions. It has now been fitted and works very well. Just right for shading the lantern window. No problem contacting customer service.”

“Very please with my blind I had a little problem with eBay but once I resolved that skylight could not have been more helpful”

Helpful Report

“The measurement and order process for this self assembly and installation latern blind is very comprehensive and precise and the resulting effect is very good. However the assembly and installation guide would benefit from a review and reworking from the user point view. Inspite of this minor reservation the end result is very satisfactory.”

“Very good quality,unbelievably easy to install Would recommend”

Helpful Report

“Excellent service, great support from initial enquiry to order and dispatch of blind.”

Helpful Report

“I have ordered battery remote control operated honeycomb roof blind, delivery was well packaged but without instruction, it took my time to find the video on the company website once found it was easy to assemble and install, but fixing screws and plugs were not supplied, overall the product is well worth it.”

Helpful Report

“Bought two solar electric blackout blinds from Skylight Blinds-direct for velux windows. Found them easy to install only four screws. They fitted perfectly, make sure to select the correct velux reference number when ordering, can be found on a sticker when opened. Very pleased with the result, they operate smoothly with the remote control with complete flexibility as to how much they are open or closed. A small issue with the package contents was resolved quickly, customer service was excellent”

Helpful Report

Hi Martin thanks for your review! So pleased everything fitted like a glove and that the installation was nice and simple. Your tip about the Velux reference number is spot on. Sounds like you're absolutely loving the remote control convenience - there's something quite luxurious about being able to adjust your blinds from across the room, isn't there? Thanks for being so understanding about the small packaging issue and for highlighting how quickly we got it sorted. Really appreciate the thorough feedback!

“I recently ordered a large honeycomb electric motor lantern blind from Skylight Blinds Direct, measuring approximately 6.5 feet wide by 14 feet long, installed in a lantern roof about 10 feet high. The blind integrates seamlessly with Alexa via a Tuya Zigbee bridge, and I’m absolutely delighted with the end result. From the outset, their communication was excellent. The team provided helpful guides and videos that made the process much smoother. In particular I'd like to say thank you to Naomi. The blind itself is of superb quality and functions exactly as expected. One suggestion I’d offer is that once an order is confirmed, it would be incredibly helpful to receive direct links to the relevant guides, instructions, and assembly videos. This would have saved me from needing to reach out for support during installation. That said, the support I did receive was prompt and informative. Installation was challenging due to the size and height of the lantern, but the final outcome was well worth the effort. Highly recommended for anyone looking for smart, high-quality skylight blinds.”
