Encouraged by the many positive reviews on this pleated, also I have accessed. Shipping and delivery of "Today" to "tomorrow" has once again works just fine.
Product since, product unpacked - opened small box, "Manual" (A5 sheet) unfolded ... and serve up's Growing!
But ... "1-2-3-mounted" ... What about on the product packaging, comes times but not out, rather 1-2-3 disengagement-despair Batting scratching SPU ** en .. . It begins with the fact that is nowhere stated that the everything is included (and in what quantity).
Besides Pleated 2 operating handles are supplied, to be pinched up and down - sounds easy, but is anything but ... because the handles are made quite inaccurate, so that you feel, stop no matter what. With feeling, some curse words, it made then "click" ...
Then follow the 4 brackets - with tape - which are fitted together and then fix (2x) above and (2x) to be pinned down in the window frame, positioned and fixed. Ok, that was easy. But what I was wondering the same, was, why stick to fix with "3M pseudo-Power-Strip" on the frame? My previous purchase had a pinch-screw mechanism - totally easy, even without a screwdriver, anytime repositionable. But with the power strips ran ... and that's it ... Mir is now the question of what to do if you want that thing where else to go ... probably have a "buying new animation argument". How do I find a solution that works, but is not practical.
Then it was time to "hang" the pleated ... and despair took its course ... First time you stand in front of the stupid question of where "above" and where in which part is "down" - the "Instructions" shows the not really ... do not look after the 5th time! Especially because the "Vergrößerungsbildchen" respect. Cord drive differs. In addition, associate the images that you supplied the "eyes" would feed the cord for it ... which is not the case - apparently the 4 are simply supplied only spare ... So bu the instructions ** t and the last brain cells switched on! "Up" left and right clicked the cords with loop. Fits! After "below" the Schüre that are only tied - tada!
But now the creature itself had to be positioned and the lines drawn, held, lashed, knotted and what I know everything ... The "manual" you can enter the total here Knipp ... confused only! . After what felt like 5 hours I had the solution by trial and error. Left the so-called clamping fixation (depends on the Schur) purely in the lower bracket, snap as one pleases, tighten, push pleated vertically to where you want to have it and let go carefully , Then hold down the cord tight and knot in! The same is now with the right side - the pure fixation ... etc.
* Drumroll * It is finished!
Now you can cut off the "supernatant" string, if you want ... and then the 4 supplied caps front click on the bracket - with slight pressure possible!
It is at last: fun and joy with the pleated!
With the rest of the processing I am satisfied so far - the "sand color" or referred to herein as "cream" ... is more of a beige ... The pleats can be adjusted well, though a bit "bitchy", but better than when it independently simply fan out. Workmanship I could not tell. But hardly in operation "catches" it the light noticeably away - so what it should.
Conclusion: For the price, it does what it is - but the above points cost two stars!
