Blackout Budget Roller Blind compatible with VELUX Roof Windows with size codes M04 / 304/1 / MK34, Beige

Clear instructions allowed me to confidently select the correct size for my window. Incredibly easy to fit IF you watch the video on the listing first (hard to understand fitting instructions from the leaflet in the box). Just attach the 2 brackets then slot the 3 parts into place and fix with just 8 screws (drill pilot holes first to make screws go in easily). Only took me 5-10 minutes to fit it. Excellent fit within the window frame. Looks great. Blocks out light very effectively. Runs up and down inside the frame very smoothly. So good, I have bought a second one for my other VELUX window.

The real deal - these are great quality and I can't fault the product. Only gripe is that the instructions to install were a little muddled and not helped by the addition of extra fittings in the box which weren't required for my window type. I spent a few hours trying to figure out first blind - second took about 3 minutes to install. Great price you can't go wrong with these!

I bought this blind to replace a Velux one where the cord had caught and blind no longer went up. This blind is a perfect fit but uses 3 screws on the sides and not 4 like the original. I didn’t get any screws with the blind but used the old ones without issue. Two screws hold the main blind part up and then there’s only the two sides to slide in and screw to the wood - which will need new holes as not in same place as velux fitting. This is a little fiddly but easily achieved by even a novice. The blind works great once fitted. The mechanism is different to Velux but works well, it just slides in the runners and not on a string / cord. To return to the open position you have to angle the handle which you use to pull it down, which took me a few seconds to work out. Do not try and push it up like the Velux ones. Takes a little readjustment of your usual closing motion but works well when used to it. Total time to remove old and fit this blind was 10mins max. Very easy and a nice well fitting result. Impressed and a great price. Truly is blackout too. I bought the standard dark grey colour as it was the same as the old one and is very smart. Only small complaint is that the blind has slight lines from folding within the unit but that’s nit picking and the blind is a great replacement. Seller dispatch is quick and shipping tracked.

The blind and mount are good quality. There's very little light seeping through, and they fit perfectly. However, the instructions are not only unfathomable, they're actually deceptive - and the videos on the company website show a man with his back to you rather than any actual installation of the blinds. It turns out, they're actually really easy to install. If you've installed one before, it won't take two minutes. But if it's your first time installing a skylight blind, you're going to spend hours trying to follow the unfathomable, misleading instructions. We've just moved to a new house, I've put up sixteen pieces of flatpack, and four blinds (including this one) in three days, and this was the only thing I've had any problems with. It's not like I can't follow a manual, the manual is just the single most incompetent set of instructions ever created since the dawn of the universe. They're even less realistic than a British Rail time table. But again, the blind is fine, and it's really easy to fit once you realise the instructions are a work of fiction, and figure out what you're doing.

Bought to replace a worn out Velux one, great price and fast delivery. Ordering correct size was easy, due to ordering information and size chart to select correct one. Blind looks good and was easy and quick to install. Works well too, seems to be good quality too.

Giving this 5 stars because it's half the price of a proper Velux blind and so easy to fit (we'll have to wait and see how durable it is). Other reviews mention the instructions are poor or unclear - ignore this, if you've ever put together IKEA furniture you'll get it. My window frame had two plastic nubs on either side side of the glass, so the blind itself slots onto those, and then you need one screw each side to secure it. The blind includes plastic spacers to show you where to screw in, if you don't have the nubs, but otherwise they can be discarded. Then there are two metal runners that slot in each side (they fit perfectly as long as you've ordered the correct size for your window), locate the bottom edge of the blind in these runner and simply put two screws in each side. Done! The blind can be pulled straight down and stays where you leave it. To open, you have to tilt the bottom edge backwards, which allows you to push it back up either to a different position or all the way open. We got a blackout blind so, when the sun is burning directly down in the afternoon, the room is almost totally dark. It's a very clean solution and so can't believe I didn't know about these sooner.

Instructions are a headscratcher, especially when there are lots of extraneous parts that you won't need if you're fitting to an existing Velux - not that they make an appearance in the instructions either, but hey ho - just a tad confusing. Once you've put one up, they're a complete doddle and couldn't be simpler - they are a really good product. 4.5 out of 5 (and that's just because of the 'instructions').

I purchased x3 of these for our Velux windows. Albeit £30 cheaper for each roller blind compared to the genuine Velux blind. As we had the plastic tabs on our windows it was a straight forward fit. Screw in the blind first then attach the side rails. We didn’t need to use the plastic fittings only the screws. Highly recommend

In my opinion much better than the original Velux Blind and so easy to fit

Conforme à mes attentes et montage très facile, je n'ai pas eu besoin des pièces fournies, juste 6 vis à mettre et hop ! ( Montage en remplacement de stores fatigués 😉 ) Semble de qualité correcte, bonne occultation, à voir dans le temps la résistance à l'ensoleillement

El envió fue razonablemente rápido, me llego en 11 días. Compre esta cortina para sustituir la original de una ventana Velux S08 que se le rompieron las cuerdas. Esta tiene otro sistema de recogida, que me parece funcional. El precio de esta, es un tercio menos que el de la original. La cortina (ahora nueva) se ve de buena calidad, claro que solo con el tiempo y el uso, lo sabré realmente. Fue relativamente fácil de instalar. Digo relativamente, ya que aunque no soy profesional instalador, dispongo de herramientas que facilitan su instalación, como por ejemplo un destornillador eléctrico que facilita sustancialmente el trabajo. A mayores le pedí a mi hija ayuda en algún momento para sujetar un poco la cortina, mientras colocaba los primeros tornillos, pero creo que una sola persona lo puede hacer. Trae todo el material necesario para su instalación, además de un pequeño papel de instrucciones que es solo grafico, pero para para mi entender, de fácil comprensión. Se ajusto perfectamente a mi ventana y al cerrarla toda, oscurece totalmente la habitación. El sistema de recogida se ajusta perfectamente a voluntad. Para recoger solo hace falta ejercer una pequeña presión hacía adentro para desbloquear y dejar que se enrolle la cantidad que se desee. Como todo siempre hay algún detalle, que en mi opinión se podría mejorar: La cortina original trae un cobertor de protección sobre el rodillo donde se enrolla la tela al abrirla, para evitar que le de directamente el sol, ya que esa zona da hacia afuera. Anexo foto con la comparación de las cortinas, en la cual se ve el mencionado protector de color negro. Creo que se lo podrían incluir y aunque incremente un poco su precio, la protegería de la luz directa del sol. En resumen me parece buena relación de calidad - precio.

Perfecte pasmaat voor mijn GGL MK04, eenvoudig te monteren en sneller geleverd dan geraamd. Fijn dat ie ook op elke hoogte ingesteld kan worden. Enig minpuntje zou zijn, dat de bijgeleverde mini handleiding mij in eerste instantie meer in verwarring bracht, dan dat het hielp. Verder niets dan lof en mooie kwaliteit.
