9 customers mention ‘Ability to open and close’5 positive4 negative

Customers are mixed about the ability to open and close the window shade. Some mention it's good to open the window but pretty bad for closing the blind, it works for opening and closing roof windows, and Velux windows. However, others say that it wouldn't open Velux window, telescopic but kept extending then went into two pieces, and that it impedes opening.

31 customers mention ‘Durability’0 positive31 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the durability of the window shade. They mention that the hook was too brittle and snapped off while pulling down the velux.

"...The metal covering slid down the pole, leaving a gap, and now it cannot be tightened to the desired length...." Read more

"...Pole does not hold fast and slips to its full adjusted length so if you are trying to open a window it may well slip putting more distance between..." Read more

"...covering slid down the pole, leaving a gap, and now it cannot be tightened to the desired length...." Read more

Be careful with wood windows.
3 out of 5 stars
Be careful with wood windows.
It does the job, Just.It's a little clunky and the opening is a loose fit for the velux bar. This means instead of leveraging the bar its self you have to pull and twist on the pole. Despite the extender being locked it often just pulls through extending further. Assuming the 2m pole is vertical you'd need to tilt the bar 45° to get the action on the velux bar this requires space in the room. Almost knocked a TV off the stand numerous times.I didn't need the blind pull bit as my velux obviously doesn't have blinds. I found that that bit digs into the wood surround so I cut it off before this thing does anymore damage. This might be worth taking into account if you have wood framed velux windows.
Thank you for your feedback

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 September 2022
It broke the first time I used it to open a window in the ceiling. The metal covering slid down the pole, leaving a gap, and now it cannot be tightened to the desired length. To add insult to injury, the hook is badly designed, and it was difficult to remove it from the metal opening bar of the window. I shall not be ordering the replacement from Amazon because this is pretty shoddy for something so basic.

Arrived in good time. We have had a pole yet required a second for another room. This pole is longer than our Velux original pole and is easier to use. Good quality. Our Velux are pulled bar type.

Good price including postage.

Le crochet n'est pas assez ouvert pour mon Velux, si on veut que ça accroché il faut forcer.
De plus la partie telescopique ne tient pas, ça s'allonge quand on tire pour ouvrir...
