Electric blinds

I am interested in buying some electric blackout blinds that are controlled by an app so that I can set them to open at a certain time.

Has anyone got these and could give an idea of cost as well as the size of your window?

We got some from John Lewis in our previous house - cost about £2k for 2 blinds for a set of large patio doors.

It was a nightmare from start to finish - first they measured them incorrectly, then the replacements were on a bracket that left a massive gap at the top of the recess that let the light stream in even when they were closed. In the end we had a huge moan and after a lot of embuggerance they took them away and refunded us. Never again.

We had some when we moved in to our flat. The app was unreliable and they would open on their own at 5am.

We kept one lot but took them off the app and just used the remote control and no timer.

Ours are quite old and use batteries so not wired in. 10 X AA batteries for each big blind.
