Online blind/curtain manufacturers

Looking to get a load of blinds and curtains made up for a new home and wondered if anyone had any recommendations please? I've used web blinds for basic stuff but I'd like to use some more exciting fabrics so have been looking at curtainsmadeforfree.co.uk - really can't tell if they'd be any good though.

Anyone had any experiences or can suggest any good companies? Thanks

I got my blinds from blinds247 for the house I'm in just now moving to a new build in three weeks so ordered again from them! The ones I have now are perfect and has no issues.

We burnt our fingers with blinds 24/7. Avoid them at all costs.

Interesting...what was wrong with yours eviloops? I had looked at them

[thehoundschicken]

How did you burn them? I'll send a pic of mine if I can. My dad fitted and he is fitting again. He is dreading it as if your not a professional it's not easy but it saves a few bob.

That's them down as it's dark!

Just realised what you meant by burn your fingers

Hi,
I am waiting on a delivery from Blinds2go and Directblinds - ordered online about 10 days ago. Both companies due to deliver tomorrow. Had two different companies due to choice of material. Will report back in the next few days

247 sent us the wrong size 6 times over an 8 week period. We even had to drive miles to collect as their delivery wouldn't drop in a Saturday (we work so not at home in the week).

We were refunded but after about 59 emails and loads of telephone calls. They just couldn't get it right

Have used blinds2go recently and was very impressed.
