SwitchBotBlind Tilt Motorized Blinds - Smart Electric Blinds with Bluetooth Remote Control, Solar Powered, Light Sensing Control, Add Hub to Work with Alexa & Google Home

I’ve had these blind tilt motors installed in my bedroom for over a year, and they’ve performed exceptionally well. The battery life is impressive—typically lasting between four and five months—and I’ve configured them to adjust with the sunrise, which they usually handle without a hitch.I’m planning to buy more soon to automate the rest of the house. Setting them up was quick and straightforward, and once they’re running, you barely have to think about them. They’re quiet, dependable, and blend seamlessly into your daily routine. The only minor drawback is that the automations occasionally need a manual adjustment to work as expected.

I’ve had this fitted for a couple of years now and I really can’t fault it.It was easy to install and connects reliably to Alexa and my smartphone via with SwitchBot bridge (works fine with the cheaper bridge if you don’t want the extra features including temperature sensor). The blind can also be operated remotely when away from home and included in Amazon Alexa routines, to give the appearance someone is at home when the house is empty.I set the unit up with the included solar panel, and have not had to plug the unit in to the mains to recharge it one, even in the winter. However, I only open and close the blind once most days, so if you have it on a blind that gets a lot of use, then you may find it needs the occasional charge from the mains too.As a disabled person, this helps me with something I would be unable to do otherwise, so I’m pleased that an inexpensive and easy to fit bit of kit is available.I intend to buy more of these when I have more blinds fitted around the house. V impressed.

Easy to install and good unit. Come in white and I coloured myself to match. Bought 8 in total but one of the solar panels stopped working.

We now have five Switchbot Blind Tilts and they are great. We've had four for a couple of years and bought another earlier this year for a different room.We run them on timers through the Switchbot app and we have never had an issue with them not working when we need them to. Four are in the same room and have been combined into one rule so they act together.They are great for when you're not going to be at home when it gets dark or for when you're away on holiday. It's very easy to change the time they operate when the days get longer or shorter.They also work well with Alexa if you need to open/close without the timer.As you can see from the photo, they're discreet and not visible unless you pull the curtains back.We don't use the solar panel by choice based on the rooms we have them in.We have a different brand for opening our curtains which are very temperamental, recently when on holiday one individual stayed shut for the two weeks we were away. If we had bought the blind tilts first, we'd have gotten Switchbot Curtain Openers instead as we trust them. We will be replacing our existing ones when we get a chance with the Switchbot ones as based on our experience they are reliable and value for money as they do exactly what we need them to do.The app for Switchbot is much easier to navigate from the other brand too, was very easy to add in the additional tilt when we bought it.

Fairly expensive and a little fiddly to install and calibrate, but once set up they're perfect.If you get a reasonable amount of direch sunlight and use the included solar panels, you'll not even need to charge them, and you can easily configure them to open and close as needed through the day.And if you have a suitable Switchbot Hub, then you can easily control them via your typical home automation.

This product is amazing, so easy to fit and works perfectly on my vertical blind, I don't know why it states not compatible as there were no alterations to get it to work or any thing like that, I'm very satisfied with this high quality, well made, easy to fit item, brilliant.

I had high hopes for the SwitchBot Blind Tilt, but I’ve been disappointed by persistent connectivity issues. Even after buying the additional hub, I couldn’t get it to connect to Alexa, and many other users seem to have the same issue. None of the suggested third-party apps worked for me either, so I’m stuck adjusting the blinds solely through the SwitchBot app.The device itself is okay but feels underpowered, even with an almost full battery. Overall, I’m disappointed—these blinds were chosen specifically for smart home integration, which has unfortunately fallen short.Editing to add; Alexa compatibility did eventually work, some weeks later. I think they updated something or other and it eventually worked. However we were unhappy with the build quality and connectivity issues we faced so ended up returning them all (and hub) for a full refund.
