I'm looking for a shade I can mount inside and over blinds to keep reflections off a TV. Is this shade good enough for that?

I have the pebble beach color and it is a great shade. I bought it for our porch to protect from the full western sun in the afternoons. My hesitation in answering your question is that this is a true exterior shade. If you, are okay with that look then this is a great shade.

I paid someone to install the blind and the plastic endsBroke off before the shade was placed on the brackets. Do not buy.

This shade should be perfect. It's also very nice looking and easy to clean... just use a lint roller. I love mine.

With a conventional truncated cone shaped shade, a lot of light is reflected down by the shade so it works quite well. If you have a more cylindrical shade it may not be as good.

Not sure if this will help but I don't see a reflection on this tv , it also doesn't have a problem with sun glare as my tv is in a room with 3 huge windows. The viewing angle is great too , you can sit almost completely to the side of it and still see the tv.

Yes, but everything is blurred. The weave is somewhat open to allow air to flow through. I have a light beige material, but I think the darker color would limit the viability. I just went outside to see if you could see into the windows at night. Absolutely. Probably not a good choice for privacy.

I had mine up for a few days (getting ready for a party). It will only partially block sunlight, it's just a semi-thin plastic material. It's very pretty but not practical for long term. It's funny I should receive this question though because I can actually point you in the right direction of something that will block out all light. I recently purchased 3 'Shift Shades' for my kids rooms. They're simple and not much to look at but they block out all light all day long!! You can look them up on Amazon, but I bought them directly from their site because it was cheaper. Hope this helped.

To be honest, I think it would depend on how your blinds are mounted. If they are mounted to the insider of the window frame you should be fine. With my set up though, where the shades are on the outer edge of the frame, i had to remove the shades. But then again, we never used them in the 3 years weve lived here. I can say that without a doubt this is the best window shelving unit I have seen and I regret nothing about the lack of functioning blinds.

It dims the light. However if your wanting a total non see thru shade. This isn't it. If your a seamstress or know one. You could have an outdoor fabric attached to the inside view. And that would solve privacy issue. A solid color close to the shade color would be nice. Hope this helps ya out :-) It is The Best by far @ blocking out the sun... Couldn't sit on screen porch in afternoon before purchasing 2 of these.

Yes. My tv is located in a room with an eastern exposure and over 300sq ft of windows (22' ceilings) and I have absolutely no issues with reflections.

It does work better than other shades as it is sized to exactly fit the window. Other shades will not fit as well and would leave areas exposed.

I rolled it out for th width if the window and pieced for the height of the window as it was easier to match th pattern. You can see where I pieced it up close but not from a distance so much. I figured if it looked bad I could cover it with a long valance. It is great for privacy which is what I was looking for and still let's light in.

Just to clarify, the shade is not made from glass. It is made of resin (ie. plastic).

It depends on where you were going to use it. If its the only light source in a large room then maybe not enough. Ours is abouve our bed and its enough. Without the shade im sure it would look fine with the right bulb.

it would definitely provide shade.... although despite the vent in the back, it didn't have a whole lot of air flow unless you were right near the front.

Not at all. The darkest shade will work perfectly for you. It looks a lot lighter in the package than it actually is.

Depends on spacing of slats but lets say theyre 2in apart that would be 50% shade at noon.I believe the fabric alone would do better than that.I put it on over 2x2 spaced slats and provides great shade.I also have a couple 12 x25 pieces to cover my trailer when in the desert.

Mine performs fine whether the blinds are open or closed. The screen is semi-glossy. I can see my reflection when the tv is off. I hope this helps.
