“Good delivery time all fitted but I have actually dimensions and they would have fitted correctly,but an allowance was made by skylight and now I have a gap on one end I have to make up somehow,for what it cost it should have been perfect !”

“Great product and customer service, contacted them for advice before ordering, they were very helpful.”

Helpful Report

Thanks for your review

“We ordered their blackout blinds for our loft windows. The description says '100% thermal blackout fabric', which I think is misleading because while it does efficiently keep out the light it doesn't really keep much heat out on hot days. The room is as hot as it was before the blinds were fitted, so it's disappointing from that aspect. We were expecting a silver foil backing or a foil layer within the fabric, to help repel the heat, but they don't - just a light coloured reverse side of the blind. When you feel the blind when it is down on a hot day it feels just as hot as the glass.”

Helpful Report

Hi Suzanne. Our roof blinds are thermal but I suspect you are not using them correctly. You need to make sure that the blind is closed all day during the summer or the room will heat up. The fabric has a white thermal backing which reflects the heat off the back of the fabric before the heat comes into the room. If the heat is already in the room and then you close the blind the heat will be trapped in the room. Thanks Naomi

“Very good service, quick delivery, even to Channel Islands Found the item on the website very easily. Packaging a little flimsy, when it arrived there were caps is the seal to the box, nothings was missing though”

Hi David Thanks for the review. Hope you like your blinds.

“I think the blind material, componants and black out quality are really good, The instructions are awful, no words, not all parts are included and difficult to follow.”

Thanks for sharing Paolo.

“What a great company to do business with. Naomie went the extra yard to find an off the peg blind for me which saved me a lot of money. The order process was straight forward and the quality of the blinds were great for the money and were delivered within 7 working days.”

Thanks for your feedback

“Helpful team with a query I had before ordering. Blinds are very good, easy to fit, and were very competatively priced compared to Velux own brand. Blinds did take about 12 days to arrive but then I do live way up in the Scottish Highlands. Will use again.”

Helpful Report

Dear Graham,Thank you so much for your 5-star rating of Skylightblinds Direct! We do apologize for the slight delay in delivery, but living in the Scottish Highlands can sometimes affect the transit time. Nonetheless, we're delighted to know that you are still satisfied with your purchase.

“The blinds arrived well packed and in good condition. We had to follow the only video on the site to fit the blinds which we a slightly different style as there were no other instructions, but all worked out OK. It would be helpful with just some minor instructions on how many fivings to use on which blind as we had three different albeit similar blinds. Note, when locating the end bar to the fixings you do need some strenght and follow the instructions carefully, as one of them was particularly awkward but we managed. Delivery via DHL was delayed as they kept in in the depot for three days, but still advised that it was being deliver on each day, so not great. However, all things considered we are happy with the product and service and look forward to many hours in or now shaded glass garden room.”

Hi Kevin Thanks so much for the review and the photos and the videos I am so sorry about the courier it must have been really frustrating. The instructions for the conservatory blinds are the same as the roof lantern blinds just without the side channels. The blinds look stunning and if you need anything else please let us know Many thanks

“Excellent product, perfect fit and operation. Would recommend without hesitation.”

Dear John,Thank you so much for your glowing 5-star rating of Skylightblinds Direct If you need any further assistance or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help!

“We went for the Lantern LITE-Honeycomb-Manual blind, which arrived within 3 weeks of placing the order. Easy to assemble and fit with all parts being numbered, and ensuring enough pairs of hands available to lift and hold the frame in place whilst securing. A couple of minor issues in that the web pages were not clear on the types / colours of blinds available for this product, and I had a little issue with the clamps, thinking that the setting up was different to that in the on-line video as I had 4 clamps. The big up-side is that communication via email and phone with Naomi and Steve resolved theses problems very quickly and we can now sit back and enjoy the shade provided - Thank you to all the team.”

Thank you so much, so glad we got there in the end

“Parts missing and still not arrived over two weeks later”

Helpful Report

So sorry Derek the factory said it was definately in the packaging but I have sent out a new part this week.

“Really superb customer service from start to finish with high quality advice and technical help from Steve. Delivered quickly, good value for a customised electric (solar) blind. Installation instructions could have been better (printed rather than online video). Good value.”
