Common questions

Shades FAQ

What's the difference between shades and blinds?

Shades are made from fabric that raises and lowers as one piece, while blinds use individual slats or vanes that tilt. Shades usually feel softer; blinds give you more precise light control.

Which shades are best for a bedroom?

Room-darkening cellular or roller shades block the most light. Many clients layer them with drapery for a fully blacked-out, finished look.

Can shades be motorized?

Yes. Most Hunter Douglas shades are available with PowerView® Gen 3 automation, so you can schedule them or control them from your phone or voice assistant.

Are Hunter Douglas shades covered by a warranty?

Yes. Hunter Douglas covers its products against defects in materials and workmanship for as long as you own them, with motorization covered for five years. If something needs attention, call us.

I had a wonderful experience with the well dressed window! They have amazing customer service, and wonderful staff. They did an amazing job on my skylight blinds and did a great job getting it installed and upgraded to the solar powered blinds. They respond quickly when I call. I recommend this team for all of your hunter Douglas blind needs.

The Vignette® Modern Roman Shades exceeded our expectations. They add a touch of elegance to the entire room. The fabric Bridget helped me pick out looks perfect in our space. Greg and Nolan installed them quickly and neatly. They helped me install the app and provided me with all the instructions on maintenance and care. Working with Bridget was a great experience. Highly recommended The Well Dressed Window!

We’ve used the Well Dressed Window multiple times for our home, and are always more than pleased with the attention to detail, consultation with the designers and the installations. Taylor helped pick out our latest shades and we could not be more thrilled with how they turned out. Installation was very precise and efficient. We love this business and will continue using them for any window covering needs!

We love the product - Hunter Douglas SkyLift shades that Well Dressed Window installed a few years ago - they look great and gently block the sunlight when it's too strong..... And the service is also terrific! Staff associate Nolan changed the batteries in the lift motor and he couldn't have been more professional and smart - the motor is hidden away but he found it and video'd it so that next time the process will go even more smoothly! A-1 service!!!

I am so pleased with my window treatments. Corey and Maddie’s recommendations were so helpful. My motorized woven woods are a dream, color choice is perfect and warms up my living room and dining beautifully. The roller shades in my kitchen are great too. Corey was fun to work with and had great suggestions while listening to what I told him I was trying to achieve. They measured and then installer remeasured before they were ordered to insure accuracy which I greatly appreciated. Installation was smooth and very professional, which I appreciated as well. Even Cathy and the showroom office were helpful. A small, family run business, that was great to deal with.

I would highly recommend The Well Dressed Window. They were very helpful, prompt, and professional. My husband & I purchased beautiful dual sheer shades for our living room. B from The Well Dressed Window came to our house with lots of samples & did all the careful measurements. The shades were installed shortly thereafter & fit & looked wonderful.

Bridget and Greg of The Well Dressed Window came out and helped us choose the perfect honeycomb shade for our bedroom. When things were not perfect, they came back and fixed all problems including providing us with a new sliding door shade at no cost to us. Before Bridget and Greg, we worked with Bridget's parents, who were also wonderful people. We feel like family and will always use The Well Dressed Window for our window treatments. We highly recommend them. You will be happy, guaranteed!

I absolutely love my window treatments that I purchased over a year ago! After a complete remodel we wanted quality shades for our windows and they were very helpful. We purchased gliding window panels and couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you!
