They were also the fastest to reply to scheduling a consultation and providing me with the quote. They also offered slightly more variety than their competitors too. Very professional and got the job done in the timeframe that they said they would. A sales representative came 1 week, professional measurer came to measure/order the next week and then 2 weeks later everything was installed quick and easy. All of the blinds looked and great and there were no issues or weird gaps.

I had shutters installed by Axent Shutters Blinds & Shades back in June and wanted to live with…read morethem for a bit before writing a review -- and now a few months later I can confidently say it was such a great decision. Chris Louie, the owner, was incredibly friendly and responsive right from the start. After I submitted a quote request online, he contacted me almost immediately and came out with a huge variety of samples. Seeing the different shutter styles, sizes, and widths in person was so helpful because what I *thought* I wanted actually changed once he walked me through the options. He really took his time explaining everything, which made the process much less overwhelming. I also appreciated that he gave me a few days to think it over instead of pushing for a quick decision. After comparing everything, I decided to go with Axent -- and I'm so glad I did. The pricing was fair, communication was excellent, and the delivery and installation went smoothly. The install team was fantastic. They worked efficiently, cleaned everything up, and even vacuumed before leaving -- it honestly looked like they had never even been there. Helpful tip: if you're unsure about shutter sizes or styles, ask Chris to walk you through the differences in person with the samples. It makes choosing so much easier. Final verdict: absolutely worth it.

Love our new Hunter Douglas Alustra Duette shades!…read more We recently had some windows replaced. Debated whether we should go back to Home Depot/Lowe's and get our normal inexpensive blinds or go a little fancier. Decided we would get a few quotes for custom window coverings. We weren't sure if we wanted honeycomb shades, shutters, blinds or what. Found a few different companies on Yelp to meet with us and give us their opinions and ideas for what would work best in those areas. Got a few different quotes and also met with Colby at Future View Window Fashions. It was an interesting process to go through his sample books, pick out materials and then hold them up in the windows to see which ones we liked. SO MANY DIFFERENT OPTIONS! At first we thought about getting Alta brand coverings since they were less expensive than Hunter Douglas. But after looking through the sample books, there was a material in the HD book that I really liked. And of course it happened to be one of their fancier lines too. ^_^ Plus we loved the "Top Down Bottom Up" feature where you can pull the shades down from the top for extra sunlight. Fortunately Colby was able to work some numbers and give us a great price that was considerably less than other Hunter Douglas dealers in the area. (We had another company that was close to Colby's price but they happened to be on vacation during that time.) After receiving Colby's quote, we told him we would think about it. He even encouraged us to get other quotes, since he knew his prices were competitive. A few days later, he called us to see if we had any questions. We told him we decided to go for it. He was very happy to get our business and even dropped off a box of temporary shades for our windows, since we had no blinds or anything in our room. We figured the temporary shades would be on our windows for several weeks but surprisingly, our Hunter Douglas Alustra Duette shades arrived in about a week! I think even Colby was surprised they arrived so quick because he initially sent his installer to another customer, thinking our order was theirs! Installer David was great. He knew was he was doing and the installation did not take very long. We use the shades every day and have not had any issues. We like Hunter Douglas' quality and hope they last a long time. They seem to have a good "limited lifetime warranty" (though I'm a little concerned about one of Future View's reviews where the customer isn't getting help for a warranty replacement...hopefully they get that fixed soon). Had some confusion with getting texts that were going to the wrong person and some other minor issues but all in all, a great company to go with if you're looking for Hunter Douglas or Alta window coverings. Prices are lower and Colby is eager to gain your business, so definitely get a quote from Future View Window Fashions!

One piece of criticism, having examples of the different types of Roman shade fold types available to look at would be good to have.

We love our new shutters from Made in the Shade…read more We desperately needed new blinds for the kitchen and family room. We received three reasonable bids, but Made in the Shade was our best option after a small negotiation. Chelsea did a fabulous job explaining what was available to us. She listened, had a great sense of humor, and allowed us to ask questions and explore different design options. We even met Brando, the owner, who came out to discuss our order briefly. Then Josh came out to install our 5 new shutters. He was fast, very polite, and did a wonderful job. There are many options for new shutters, and perhaps, once they are installed, who you purchased them from will not ever be noticed. But we all know the problems that can occur with delays, poor installation, and sloppy workmanship. Made in the Shade was incredible, a joy to work with, and very high quality. The shutters arrived two weeks earlier than promised, so if there was one downside, it was that I had to hurry and paint the kitchen--not much of a downside. We highly recommend Made in the Shade.

But since taking our money, she's completely stopped responding to messages. It's unacceptable and unethical to treat customers this way. If you come across Chelsea working with any curtain or window treatment company in the area, be extremely cautious. This experience has been a nightmare and I wouldn't want anyone else to go through the same thing!

This time…read moreI had an issue with my illuminates as they would not rotate on the one side to open or close the vanes. He tried to grind a part to it make it work. Then he told the gear would have to be replaced. He took a picture of the manufacture information and said he would have his person call Hunter Douglas about the part. He would direct them to mail the part to me and he would return to fix it. I called a few days later and they said they were working on it. Almost a month now and I've heard nothing back from them. Disappointed. This is unprofessional. I paid $80 dollars when he came out and now my illuminates are still broken and I've been ghosted.

Two windows were missed in the quote, despite having discussed those two rooms. We had mentioned that we would provide dimensions once we saw the home again (as we were still in escrow). Steve then reached back out letting us know that he returned to our home and entered without our knowledge or approval. For us, that was confirmation that we would not be moving forward with this company. I cannot say that I would recommend this company due to the lack of respect to our property/ privacy as well as the lack of professionalism.

I was nervous and so I could see what it would look like they brought part of Steve's shutters from his own home to hold up so I could see how it would look.
