5.0 out of 5 stars Great shade; great value in so many ways, September 30, 2008

This shade is well made, sturdy construction, good value in the purchase price. It's also easy to install and simple to operate.

The best value, however, comes from my utility bill savings. The use of this shade on a particularly sunny window means that my house no longer has a 10 degree temperature rise in the kitchen each morning at about 11:30. Instead, I still get light through the window, but NONE of the heat or glare. It also means I no longer have to move my laptop to another area at this time to work. The shade permits a view outside when there isn't direct glare which means I don't have to raise & lower it just to see out the window.

Great product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice with a couple of problems, April 2, 2011

This review is from: Coolaroo Select Series Top Roll up Sun Shade 6 Feet by 6 Feet, Mocha (Lawn & Patio)

I just bought 2 shades today, and they look nice and they work, but I have a couple of problems. First, there are plastic caps that seal the ends of the aluminum tube that runs along the bottom of the shade. You pry off the caps to install the rings on the bottom rail that secures the bottom of the shade when it unrolls. Well, a small amount of horizontal movement of the shade will knock those caps off. Once the caps are off, the rings will slide off, and you will lose the ability to secure the bottom of the shade. This happened to me within the first hour of use, and one of the caps fell through the deck and I cant find it. The rest of the caps are now glued on, and I recommend everyone else do the same.

The second problem, is that after securing the shade bottom and pulling the shade taught with the chain, the wind will force the shade to unwind and loosen. I will have to install something to wrap the chain around to prevent this.

On the plus side I can still see the view off my deck through the shades, and they make the deck a much nicer space, almost like a separate room instead of an exposed deck. The filtered light they let through is gives a very nice ambiance.
