I bought from blinds.com a couple of years ago, 2" blinds.
Everything was fine.
Then last year I needed another, for a door but it was 1". I wanted it to match and wasn't sure which I had bought. Called them and they were very helpful.
Dave Ramsey really pushes them and I felt he would not scam me.
And I also have ceiling fans in each room! Dark brown so they don't even fade into the ceiling. Hopefully we save a little money in electric bills.

I think the one I used was also blindsgalore, but I can't recall for sure. It was a few years ago. They looked very nice and I have been pleased - the only thing I didn't like was my fault. They've held up well except where my friend used to let her toddler play with them.

We used them for sliding cellular blinds for our skylights. We got a quote from a local place and it was $800 before installation. Blinds dot com was under $300 and they were easy enough for DH and I to install ourselves. DH ordered color samples (free) and the samples arrived two days later. Picked our color, measured (twice!) and had the blinds in a couple of days.
I would recommend them.
ETA: I like ceiling fans AND fleece vests!

We love them. We did almost our entire house in 2" faux wood blinds (white) and have some fairly large windows. It cost us just about $1000. They are great to work with.

I've used them and have had good experiences. I ordered woven blinds. They were well made, sized right and easy to install. The prices were great too.

I got free samples from them one time, then decided to go with drapes, so I didn't use them. However, they are a Dave Ramsey endorse company if that means anything.

I just ordered 6 blinds from Binds.com. I was really happy with them. I liked the fact that I could return them if they were not the correct size.

I have a question, do they come and measure your windows or do you have to do it yourself?

I measured them myself. I am not sure if they can send someone out to measure. The directions on how to measure were very easy to understand!
