Bought 5 of these shades.
I purchased 5 of these shades to put on the outside of my windows of my enclosed porch that gets really hot in the summer months. I'm hoping this will block some of the sun, and keep the porch cooler. They were well packed, not tangled, not broken, and the hardware was in separate little plastic bags. Once I hung them, I lightly brushed over them with a clear glossy shellac to protect them from the elements. I also added a couple more screws to each side and at the base since I am keeping the shades down vs rolled up and do not want them blowing around since I have them outside. They install easy, and they look very nice. Can't beat them for the price.
