Yes, we are very satisfied with the new widow coverings for both our 3front windows and our 3 bedroom windows. We are particularly pleased with the excellent support Debbie has provided in helping us with the selection of the right product for our house. Her friendliness and the timely answers to all of our questions ( and there were many!) made all the difference . The installation went well and the technician worked efficiently. The scheduling was easy and he was there on time .We would certainly be glad to recommend this business to our friends and acquaintances if the opportunity presents itself. read more

I had a very frustrating experience with The Shade Store and would strongly caution others before ordering. I placed an order for two sets of drapery (Living Room and Dining Room) at the end of January, with an expected ship date of late February and installation scheduled for mid-March. At the end of February, I was informed that the fabric was on backorder until the last week of March, meaning production had not even started yet. While delays can happen, this already conflicted with the original timeline. On March 9, I was then told the order would ship on March 27 -- which directly contradicts the earlier explanation that production could not begin until late March. When March 27 passed, there was no update. After I followed up again, I was told that only the Dining Room drapery had shipped, while the Living Room drapery was backordered again. There was no proactive communication, no explanation of what changed, and no response to my follow-up. Even now, the only update I receive is that they are "checking with production," which means there is still no clear understanding of the order status. Key issues: - Contradictory and unreliable information about timelines - No proactive communication -- I had to chase every update - Very slow responses (often several days) - Partial shipment without explanation, with ongoing delays - Overall lack of ownership and accountability For a premium-priced custom product, this level of service is unacceptable. At this point, I have lost confidence in both their process and their customer support. I would not purchase from them again and would not recommend them to others. If you value clear communication and reliable timelines, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. At the time of writing this review, I am still waiting for a clear and reliable update on the remaining order. read more

The Shade Store has had our entire massive payment for an order placed over eight months ago. We still do not have the shades we were sold and we now have no confidence in this company. We have heard countless excuses for the long delays remaking shades after multiple failed installations (3, going on 4). The Shade Store just cannot seem to get it right. They keep having to remake the shades due to simple and avoidable issues in their own process. We ordered two blackout panels and two sheer panels for one big window, nothing crazy. They have had issues with measurement, mismatching fabric, missing hardware, mismatching carrier types, tracks improperly installed and pulling away from the ceiling, you name it. Each time shades are delivered and installed we essentially start over with a new mess. It is chaos. I finally asked for my money back after the cycle just repeated for the fourth time. The company representative told me they would refuse to provide a refund. Now we will evaluate options for legal action. Avoid this business and save yourself the headache. read more

Confirming again the absolutely disappointing and unsatisfactory customer service at this store. Have worked with Nicole and others at this local store and customer service located in other parts of the country on a year-long mess of a project with this company. It seems no one communicates with other departments, very disjointed and unprofessional. Received either very delayed or no responses to emails. Very poor communication. Wasted so much time, money and energy fixing their litany of mistakes and incompetence. Horrible company. read more

I had the absolute worst experience with DuVonne Preisler who was assigned as the "designer" in my project, who clearly did not wish to give any design inputs. In our initial conversation after all the measurements were taken, she "educated" me on the difference in operation between a battery operated and hardwired motorized roller in the most condescending way, when I was actually asking about the visual difference between the two. When I tried to discuss design options, she told me to just look on the website and go with anything I like. She literally said to me at one point, "I can choose whatever fabric I want" when I asked for specific design recommendations for the window coverings. In the end, I asked if there is a manager I can talk to and she actually said "all the designers here manage ourselves". It felt surreal. The most frustrating part is that I've used the shade store before and I'm using these guys again because they were great last time. read more

I don't recommend this store at all. I bought from this store expecting a prime service and product, and I didn't receive neither of them. The drapery has sims everywhere. They didn't instal the drapery in the agreed day - 1 month after the purchase - because they forgot to send one part, which the installer told happens all the time. To return and finish the installation, they asked for additional 3 1/2 weeks, generating an impact because I've removed the previous blackout from my bedroom. The support was terrible, I need to follow up 3 times to have one answer telling they will see what to do. Terrible. I'll never do busines with them at all. read more

The Shade Store - Very visible sim, there are lots of them in the entire drapery - Shades & Blinds Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Updating my review from 1-star to 3-stars. Tami, from their escalated customer support reached out after seeing my previous review and worked diligently on making things right. They were able to offer the original quoted price and provided a speedier install. I wish we could've gotten to the same outcome without all the drama, but appreciate that Shade Store took their customer feedback seriously. Thanks Tami, the blinds were exactly what we were looking for. read more

I recently purchased shades, I worked with designer Zalek, who was professional, and wonderful! She helped me pick out the best pattern for my living room. She was always responsive and attentive, sent me links to schedule installation, my shades were installed yesterday and they're absolutely gorgeous! Better than expected! Everything was very simple and organized. I highly recommend The Shade Store, work with Zalak! Thank you Zalek! read more

Very responsive, thorough, excellent measurement and installation. Well worth the cost. Our contact, DuVonne Preisler, made sure we were kept apprised of the steps and progress. read more

I needed custom window shades for 3 bedrooms last year (5 windows total) and chose The Shade Store after talking to a few different companies. They really went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. The installers arrived promptly and were incredibly professional, following safety protocols because of the pandemic. I'm very satisfied with the quality of my cordless roller shades and valances; the shades are perfectly fitted to each of my windows and I love that I don't have to worry about cords, since I have 2 young kids. I highly recommend this company and would order from them again. read more

The best customer service I could ever wish for. I have purchased motorized roller shades for my entire house from them. They have done an amazing job! From the first day of interaction with them the salesperson/account manager/installers - all were super professional. They did send a small mistake by sending the wrong sizes of the shade for one of the windows, but they have taken care of that in the best professional way. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to get quality products with the best service along the way. read more

See all

beautiful materials and highly experienced staff. i would highly highly recommend DuVonne to help with you the design ;) read more

My wife and I had a great experience working with DuVonne and her team. She gives good advice and will tell you her genuine opinion, which we appreciated. We are also very thankful for her help in avoiding costly mistakes, and getting us to a great outcome. We're very happy with the blinds we selected as well as the installation. Everyone we worked with throughout the process, DuVonne (in-store), Dennis (measurements), and Gene (installation), were all professional, timely, responsive, and flexible. We couldn't be more satisfied and would highly recommend this team and this company. read more

Unfriendly and rude salesperson. They were more interested in talking about price with us than showing their products. We felt their behavior was because they had a certain customer profile in their mind which we didn't fit. read more

I just got our install of both drapes and shades and I'm over the moon happy. The Shade Store is known for impeccable quality which is true, however, what made my experience fun and worthwhile was working with Zalak Shah. She has been professional and collaborative from our first email exchange to the very end with a sweet follow up phone call. I went in a novice and no question seemed silly or too much. At first the cost did stand out but once I saw their attention to detail and the long process behind design, I knew I was making the right choice. Zalak was sincere with her approach and made the design process feel like I was collaborating with a friend. During a little hiccup, she worked with my budget to find solutions at the most reasonable price point. Thank you Shade Store and Zalak for the laughs, your time and patience. I hope to work with you again. read more

I really liked The Shade Store and their offerings for window treatments. They are a bit more expensive compared to a 3 Day Blinds, but their product and hardware is definitely better quality. We couldn't afford to do all our windows with them but did our master bedroom with them and very happy with the end product. I worked with Zalak Shah and she was very nice and patient with me. I had a lot of questions since I've been a curtain person forever and needed to be schooled on all the different window treatments out there. She was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. It took a couple months to finally figure out what I wanted to do with the master and she checked in every so often via email. I meet with her twice in the showroom and helped me figure out what type of blackout shade would work best. It did take a few weeks for the shade to be produced and the install date I was given was also a couple weeks after the estimated delivery date of the shade. However, I had a feeling that once the shade shipped I could contact Zalak directly and get a sooner install date, which was what happened. She was able to get me a new install date scheduled less than a week after the deliver of my shade. I was bummed we couldn't use The Shade Store for all our windows, but we saved the best for last. Definitely recommend to check them out at least to see what they offer and work with Zalak! Thanks again Zalak! read more

My husband and I just purchased blackout blinds for our bedrooms from The Shade Store. Debbie was extremely friendly and responsive to all of our questions, and made the ordering process very easy. Our installer Chris was very professional and did an amazing job installing the blinds in our home. We are so happy with the quality of the products and service we received, and we will definitely return when we get blinds for the rest of our home. read more

We didn't end up using their service, but visiting the store was such a pleasant experience. The staff there was very friendly and helpful. She guided us walking through the whole store, introducing each type of material and control, and helped us making the best choice. We didn't buy from them because their price was much higher than average. For people willing to pay extra money for high end shades, this is an excellent choice. read more

I had an unexpected bad experience today at this store. From the moment i walked in with my sister the lady sitting there was sassy and unwilling to help. Anything we asked she gave a response with attitude. At some point it was apparent she made a judgement that we could not afford their services. Maybe it was the the workout clothes we were wearing or simply her bias thought process. Us having enough money is not even the point I want to make. The point is you should never treat anyone differently regardless of how they look or what you think their income is. As mush as we would have loved to have a "Pretty Woman" moment, this is real life. This person is not going to learn a lesson. She is the type of person that has no remorse for how she treats people. Not only do I not want to give them business, but I don't want others to be treated this way either. There was nothing classy about her, and she left a bad taste for the store. read more

Great experience with The Shade Store Debbie was very professional and went above and beyond to make sure that we chose the best selection for each room and for the best price. We mostly purchased roller shades with the motorized controls (can be controlled by an iPad app) and are very happy with them. We also ordered wood blinds, roman shades, and curtains. We are happy with all the materials and installation. All shades are shipped to your home and once they all arrive, you receive a phone call to schedule installation. Thanks to the entire team for helping us with our order. read more

The Shade Store - Shades & Blinds Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

We love their products! When we bought a brand new modern townhouse a few years ago, it needed to have custom designed modern roller shades. We weren't looking for an okay shade: we wanted to have really nice shades that we wouldn't regret later and to buy another one. Their products are very beautiful and every guests we had gave us compliments on them. Now, we moved to a new house and needed to have roller shades again. Obviously, we went back to The Shade Store! That's how much we love their products. The clerks, especially Debbie, at the store is very helpful and professional. We highly recommend their products. read more

Debbie at the Shade Store gave us loads of helpful assistance as we ordered window coverings for a new house, not an easy job. Throughout the process, I had to drop by the store a few times to pick up some samples and when Debbie wasn't there to assist me other sales people were also helpful. We had one slight fail with a Roman shade that broke a thread and Debbie had someone there within days to replace it. We went to Home Depot Bellevue to save some money on one room and the contrast in Customer Service and quality couldn't be greater. read more

I am very pleased with our products from the Shade Store. Debbie was an extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, and responsive consultant as she helped us with an install for an entire house. The quality of the blinds are fantastic with very competitive rates. We had an issue with one of the shades after install, and they addressed it immediately. read more
