Fitting can be a little problematic on your own, but once you have found the best way you would not have a problem doing it again. The blind works as it should, but it was a little more expensive than some other some other providers.

The measuring and ordering process was straightforward. Quote received and accepted. Blind arrived well packed. Easy to put together following online instructions. It has now been fitted and works very well. Just right for shading the lantern window. No problem contacting customer service.

Order experience was very good and knowledgable.
Placed order and good communication up to delivery. DHL confused delivery by saying it would be on a Friday but then confirmed the Monday.
Installation was easy followed instructions and very happy as it does the job we needed it to.

The measurement and order process for this self assembly and installation latern blind is very comprehensive and precise and the resulting effect is very good. However the assembly and installation guide would benefit from a review and reworking from the user point view. Inspite of this minor reservation the end result is very satisfactory.

Bought two solar electric blackout blinds from Skylight Blinds-direct for velux windows. Found them easy to install only four screws. They fitted perfectly, make sure to select the correct velux reference number when ordering, can be found on a sticker when opened. Very pleased with the result, they operate smoothly with the remote control with complete flexibility as to how much they are open or closed. A small issue with the package contents was resolved quickly, customer service was excellent

I recently ordered a large honeycomb electric motor lantern blind from Skylight Blinds Direct, measuring approximately 6.5 feet wide by 14 feet long, installed in a lantern roof about 10 feet high. The blind integrates seamlessly with Alexa via a Tuya Zigbee bridge, and I’m absolutely delighted with the end result.
From the outset, their communication was excellent. The team provided helpful guides and videos that made the process much smoother. In particular I'd like to say thank you to Naomi.
The blind itself is of superb quality and functions exactly as expected.
One suggestion I’d offer is that once an order is confirmed, it would be incredibly helpful to receive direct links to the relevant guides, instructions, and assembly videos. This would have saved me from needing to reach out for support during installation.
That said, the support I did receive was prompt and informative.
Installation was challenging due to the size and height of the lantern, but the final outcome was well worth the effort.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for smart, high-quality skylight blinds.

Undecided wether we needed a blind for our 3x2 meter lantern, but having spoken to the helpful team at skylight, decided that it would help keeping the room warmer in winter. Ordered and assembled ( a little tricky as the online instruction didn't appertain to my particular blind), but with a little help it was installed.
I didn't realise how much I needed it! Throughout the extremely hot weather it was invaluable at keeping a south facing room cool and was easy and quick to open/ close.
I'm sure it will be just as useful in winter at keeping the room warm.
A good investment from a helpful company.
