Arch Window Light Filtering Pleated Shade Blinds for semi-Circle Arch Window, 2 PCS 60%-70% Shade, Easy to Cut and Install, 72” x 36”, White

These are the best shades hands down! They were so easy to install, just measure and cut to length! They block out the brutal evening sun and hold up very well! I do wish they came with extra plastic center parts but overall very happy!

I was pleasantly surprised. These worked very well, and I was able to quickly figure out how to shape them to our arch windows. Blocked the bright east sun, but transmits enough light to illuminate the room comfortably.

Overall, this is a good inexpensive window shade that will do its job of reducing the light coming in a bedroom window. I received a quote for a professional shade that would have been 800 for the window. I figured I would try this for a whole lot less and see what I thought. I think I will skip the 800 window shade and leave this one. There are a few things to be aware of for fit and sizing- For our bedroom and office half circle windows, there was plenty of shade to make a beautiful shade that blocks a fair amount of light. If your window isn't perfectly half circle, cutting will require some mathematical/shape understanding to get the right fit. My husband had to cut an off-centered V to make it work- he used some blue tape to hold it all tight to do so. Other methods might require cutting to the biggest measurement and then trimming individual pleats. If you have a perfect half circle the instructions should work. One problem with the product- The instructions say to apply tap- but the shade comes pre-taped on 1 side which means when it is fanned out, it doesn't have tape on half of the fan. That is why I reduced my rating.

I have a large arched window that lets in a lot of sunlight, and these light filters were exactly what I needed! They were super easy to apply and made an immediate difference. The harsh glare is gone, but the natural light still comes through with a soft, warm glow. Not only do they filter the light beautifully, but they also add a touch of elegance to the window without blocking the view. The fit was just right for my oversized arch, and I love that I didn’t have to use bulky curtains. If you have a large arched window and want privacy and light control without sacrificing style—this is it!

Easy installation even though directions are lousy.Have to be careful not to bend material during installation or crease will appear .take your time installing

Pros: 1) looks good, 2) blocks heat and glare well, 3) decent "fabric" quality, and 4) good value. Cons: 1) instructions refer to things not in the package and are poorly written, 2) plastic clip thing just crunches up the shade and makes it impossible to spread pleats out evenly, and 3) requires creativity and tinkering to install. What we did: didn't use the plastic clip thing at all, didn't use the adhesive strip at all. We trimmed shade to ~1/2in less than the size of the window, fanned it open, and used clear push pins to hold it in place - one at each corner at the bottom and one at the top to keep it from falling out. Used a woodworking clamp to secure the shade while cutting to size; used a utility knife. The nice thing about the push pins is that we can use the shade seasonally - we will put it up for the hot part of year and will take it down for the cooler part of the year. So it took some tinkering and creativity but it's turned out okay.

Good quality, easy to install.

Easy to install , had to trim to fit window . It does not completely block out the sun but wasn’t expecting it to. Serves its purpose well.
