GoDear Design Adjustable Vertical Blinds for Patio Doors, Panel Track Blinds for Windows and Room Dividers, Extendable Track from 45.8" to 86" W, Trimmable Panel Curtains Up to 96" H, Marble

Looks great and I was surprised by the quality/cost ratio. Installation was easy and a clever design.

I loved it! It has excellent quality, and its color gives it a modern and sophisticated touch. It’s also easy to install and completely transforms the space where it’s placed, thanks to how beautiful it is.

These blinds went into my mobile home, an old '73 model which I am rehabbing, and my sliding glass doors needed an upgrade from some ugly curtains that were there previously. I considered vertical blinds but then happened upon these, which I think turned out great.I built a custom valance for it with building materials that cost all of $20 and added some metal protection plates in the upper left corners of the blind panels that I bought here on Amazon for $7 (Art3d 4-Pieces Peel and Stick Stainless Steel Backsplash Tiles). I'd seen from other GoDear Sliding Panel reviews how the delicate panels could get damaged by the panel pull rod and figured I'd protect them all. The backsplash tiles were pretty easy to cut with a utility knife (scoring several times on both sides and then snapping) and they are backed with a sheet of heavy-duty adhesive (I think they'll stick forever on the woven fabric panels which are mostly made of paper and polyester). But if you want to do the same as I did, beware, because the pull rod needs to be adjusted so it sticks out more away from the panel. You might do different protection plates made of plastic or thinner metal panels that would work without adjustments.The sliding track that came with my original shipment was damaged and I had to write the company to replace it; they replaced it immediately (for free) and that was a huge relief. The panels are indeed woven paper/polyester and I'm not sure they'll last as long vinyl vertical blinds, but they've been up for three months now and still look like new. They certainly won't take a beating like vinyl blinds can, but vertical blinds have their own maintenance issues. To be honest, I think I would go with these sliding panels even if they broke down, since I love the way they look. You can buy replacement sliding panels, but a pair cost $60 and to replace all four you might as well buy the whole kit and get the sliding track as well (which is beautifully built and has other DIY applications for the creative handyman type).I would have given this four stars, given the broken sliding track and how I question the durability of the panels (and how I felt I had to take a step further to protect them), but GoDear was very responsive with the track replacement and only time will tell how really durable the panels are. Given that I love the overall appearance and have pretty much written off ever doing conventional vertical blinds again, I must give GoDear the full five stars. I think GoDear should make the plastic parts on the sliding track out of metal (the plastic is what broke) and that would solve the track issues. This is really an affordable and brilliantly designed alternative to boring old vertical blinds.

I was looking for earth tone with light filter so ai bought “Pecan”. In my opinion the color isn’t very “earthy” as in brown, sand, type colors. It has an extreme orange undertone especially in the daytime. Good privacy not enough light filtering though. The material is like plastic and very easy to fray. I exchanged Pecan for the color “Catch Me”. I passed on this color initially because description noted grayish color. It’s white but not too white and not too gray and not too ivory/cream. It’s easy to change up decor with this color. In the daytime nice light filters in but at night they appear more close to sheer than light filtering. The material is similar to cellular shades (from Lowe’s Roth Allen brand) and this color will get dirty fast if opening and closing without using the wands. I’d be afraid to steam clean as well. They look nice and will do for the moment. They desperately need a valance. Pictures are both colors daytime and night time.

These panels are beautiful, sleek, and modern. Installation is quick and easy, and they are very flexible. They are probably not right for heavy use. Use in guest rooms or areas of light duty--they will upgrade the look immensely. The value for money cannot be beat.

I wanted something to cover my sliding glass doors and didn’t want to use curtains and wanted something that wast bulky. These are the perfect upgrade from the vertical blinds. The material is nice and I like the ability to cut to size, the install wasn’t complicated and really love the look of them overall. Highly recommend.

We bought a house where the master had no closet door and discovered it was probably because it’s an odd size. After searching online I discovered the only other door option was custom doors, and didn’t want to spend the money on that. These were a much less expensive option, and work well. They weren’t too hard to install, although my brother who installed it for me found that the middle portion of the instructions was very vague, and had to look up video instructions to see which direction to screw in the mounting pieces.I’m very happy with the material for these. It looks and feels nice, and it was really easy to cut each panel the exact same length. We hung one panel, marked where we wanted to cut it, then trimmed it and hung it back up to make sure the length was correct. Then I just laid the panels across a table with the cut one on top, and trimmed each of them to the same length. Because the material is lined it was easy to cut in a straight line, and the material cut very smoothly.I’m not a fan of the look of the top of the panels where they are mounted, but plan to create some sort of valance from the leftover material like I’ve seen other customers do.

Loved these so much, bought 2 sets. They block the light, they slide easy and I loved the color.
