Web-Blinds Blue Admiral Roller Blinds

Product looks good and does job. Disappointing customer service.

Advantages: Quick delivery, blinds look good, and reduce heat reasonably well
Disadvantages: Poor customer service

Just ordered some blinds from web blinds. The company didn't provide screws or plugs to install them into ordinary plasterboard and wasn't even able to advise as to what I needed. Their advice: take the blinds to a DIY store and ask them for advice as to what I need. I find it extremely disappointing that the company doesn't provide the proper materials to fit the blinds in a very standard construction material; the notion that having spent several hundred pounds I now need to go to a DIY store is somewhat bewildering to me. The attitude of the company's helpline when I raised this issue was also quite unhelpful. We went with this company because they were associated with Hillary's but I really wouldn't recommend this company at all now for all the hassle this is causing. Update 2 weeks later: have now been to Robert Dyas and purchased ...

Review of Web-blinds.com

Excellent Service, great product

Advantages: Fast service, great range, high quality
Disadvantages: None

They do a great range for vertical, venison, roman, and normal roller blinds. All came is a large select of fabrics, designs and colours. There is a great page where you can enter the measurements of your window and it will calculate the cost of the blind, by style and fabric. Another page allows you to recreate your room, in our case the bedroom, then experiment with different ...

Love Is Blind and Blue

Advantages: The bewitching storytelling...
Disadvantages: The book is a little long...521 pages, be patient

I took a hot shower and a late breakfast after finishing reading "The Blind Assassin". I had started reading it the previous night. I closed my eyes and soon the angel of sleep caressed my eyelids and I was sedated into a deep slumber. Slowly the characters of the book started to haunt me one by one and I was swimming in a turbulence of love, deception, perfidy and death. Margaret Atwood, for her tenth novel "The Blind Assassin", was awarded the "Booker Prize" for the year 2000. Her magical presentation deserved the honour in all respects. In this great novel, she carries out a literary legerdemain and carves out an art of great entertainment in an enthralling and exhilarating fashion. The novelty of this wonderful creation is the manner in which the fable has been told, in a concoction of different layers - a story within a novel in ...
