I recently purchased three no-drill pleated blinds with adhesive mounting strips from Schuette. After about three weeks, the blinds were delivered.
My first impression was very positive. The installation instructions were clear and easy to follow. I attached the adhesive strips and waited 24 hours, as instructed, before hanging the blinds.
Unfortunately, problems started almost immediately. Two of the three blinds were fine, but the cords on the third blind were completely tangled, making it impossible to install. After contacting customer service, who responded quickly, I sent the blind back for repair. About two weeks later, I received it back, but the cords were still tangled. Fortunately, I was able to fix the issue myself.
The biggest disappointment, however, was the quality of the adhesive strips. One by one, they came loose from the window frame, causing the blinds to fall down. The blinds were installed on wooden window frames, so this should not have been an issue. In the end, I had to replace all of the adhesive strips myself with higher-quality alternatives.
It is disappointing to sell pleated blinds with adhesive mounting strips when the strips do not perform as intended. Based on my experience, I would not recommend purchasing this product.
