ZSHINE Motorized Blackout Skylight Cellular Shades (93021H Coffee)

I was not sure about this but since I received it and assembled it I am happy so far with it. Communication with the seller was good as was Packaging and shipping time. Make sure you measure in 3 spots each way. Assembly was straight forward, lay it flat and assemble the 4 rails and drive 4 screws. From there, test the device. After that simply hold it where you want it (2 person job), mark it and drill the holes, insert the Molly's, replace the shade and 4 more screws and its installed. I got the all white and it looks good and nice gloss white material finish (looks like aluminum) . A little caulking to do, but it blocks most light and reduces solar heat drastically in my bathroom. See my short video. The remote looks good and works good, I wish I could reverse the button order due to the way I installed the blind, not a big deal breaker. Only thing left to do is hook it up to my Alexa.

This blinds are great. They are custom made and work flawlessly; they fit perfectly. No complaints. Does the job of blocking all light. The remote makes it great. Easy to install as along as you follow the directions. I installed it in my skylight.

Cannot program to open and close I have paid a technician to Come and try to get it working No luck It cost me 125. Dollars for service call I’m. Very disappointed with Amzon doing business With this company I want a credit for this I will gladly send it Back Ty. Fred. Faello

I have a large, custom sized skylight window in my office. I needed blinds that would fit the window, block out the light and was easy to control because it would be difficult to reach. I purchase blinds from zShine. They were very thorough and professional a) on ensuring that I have the right measurements, they sent a separate email very quickly after the order to confirm my size request on purchase, b) I received the blinds within a week of ordering, c) It took about 90 mins to install (remember it was big and required two people but its more than doable) and lastly d) its genuinely really nice (see photo). The overall quality is good, the blind material is good, and it just works (no hassle). I would buy again if I needed custom blinds, its worth the money knowing it will be up there for years.

I was a little skeptical at first that this would work but man it is amazing. I would definitely suggest using the video that is on YouTube to help put it together but other than that it fit perfectly and it is truly a blackout blind. Even after I sent the measurement when I customized it the team reached out to double check before they put it into production. Their communication is top notch!I will definitely be buying more for my regular windows. Great Job Zshine team.

Following the assembly instructions were a bit tricky, not actually hard but knowing what to do took a few views of the youtube video. Once I figured it out, it was pretty simple to assemble. The other tricky part was screwing it in place, as my skylights were about 12-14 feet up, which took some balancing miracles to do this solo, getting at least one screw in to start, after that it was a breeze. Two notes: 1. measure, measure, measure. The skylight glass, the opening near the glass and the opening near the ceiling were all slightly different. Go with the smallest dimensions, any gaps you can fill in but if you are too big on any of these, it will never fit into place. 2. the batteries last a really long time, amazing! I ordered this Dec. 2023 and use it about 4-5 times a week, it is Feb. 2025 and today is the first day I am having to recharge the battery! I almost got the solar add-on because I was afraid of battery life but my goodness, over a year later and this is my first charge since install! Just don't lose the charger, place it somewhere you will remember in a year. The remote is still going strong, no battery changes.

I bought two of these, the battery options that plug in to charge, and internet adapters. One of the units works just like I hoped and I'm very happy with it. The second one, not so much (more on that below.) As far as the fit goes, I couldn't have been more pleased, I measured the skylight frame opening, not the drywall opening (intentionally), and I removed the skylight frame and installed these in them, a very snug fit, then reinstalled the skylights. That is the only possible way you can install these if your dimensions are bigger than the drywall opening. It makes for a very clean looking install. I'd only recommend this way for someone who understands and is confident in their abilities. If you're unsure, definitely follow their instructions carefully. These are shipped in tube cylinders and require assembly of the frame, but the electrical wires are already spliced, connected and sealed. Unfortunately one of my units wires detached during shipping, because part the hardware was sliding back and forth, putting a lot of pressure on the wires and breaking their connections. Thankfully, it was obvious which wires went where, and I had no problems twisting the wires together and sealing with electrical tape. Overall, if that was the only issue, I'd be rating 5 stars. I am unsure if that issue has any bearing on the real problem for me (I'm not sure which one had the wire issue from shipping as I quickly fixed that issue.) The problem is: one of the motor's or battery will not operate normally. Technically it will open and close, but only after repeated commands on the remote, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down...etc. It needs time between each button press to move a little bit and stop. It will move just a hair at first, then after a few clicks it will move a centimeter, up, down, and I should note it moves slowly compared to normal. Then, it will suddenly work completely normally, either direction, no issues, at normal speed and will continue to work normally for a couple minutes at least. Thankfully I have the other fully operational one to know what is normal. It is not a binding issue, the motor isn't being stressed. After it decides to work, it will close and open all the way without issue, even 5 minutes later it usually will work fine. After a little while though 10-15 minutes and beyond, the same process is needed to open or close it. This is especially disappointing because I bought these with the intent of automation, using the internet adapters. Obviously I can't use that feature with this issue, unless I was to figure out a way to have the unit programed to open and close once a second, 20 times in a row. I obviously should have asked for a refund or warranty, but I received the item right before a vacation and by the time I installed it and figured out the problem, it was out of the 30 day window. If anyone from this company has any advice, I'd welcome it. It seems that it must be either the battery or the motor being defective, as once it's 'warmed up' it works normally. I consider this to be a major issue, but I only went as low as 3 stars because the other unit is functioning perfectly and is everything I hoped it would be, and because I failed to act within the 30 day window.

Assembly is "easy" enough for me only took almost. 3 hours with an experienced construction. Shutting instructions and awful videos. Don't buy buy another AVOID THIS nightmare 😇😅
