Canadian online retailer of blinds and shades Zebrablinds.ca is making inroads into the market with an expanded assortment of products including its custom made motorized roller window shades that are less costly than that of competitors. The company has already been a huge hit with consumers both for the shades themselves as well as the potential to integrate the shades with automatic technology. This comes at a time when many are updating their homes while being off work due to COVID-19. 

The company, based in Mississauga Ontario, custom makes the shades to the ordered specifications depending on window type. Given that windows come in different shapes and sizes, Zebrablinds.ca is able to custom make shades that will fit perfectly while offering a wide range of materials in colours that will go with almost any decor. Fashion is combined with function with the company’s vast assortment of product. Hundreds of design options are made to fit any budget, ranging from simple Roman Shades to Smart Home Technology Motorized Shades. Shoppers can visit the Zebrablinds.ca website to browse the company’s easy-to-use Shop By or QuickPick selections, which offer preset combinations that allows one to make a decision quick and with limited stress.

Technology can be integrated into the use of Zebrablinds.ca, which the company has said to be a hit with consumers. Included are non-motorized versions as well as smart Z-wave motorized blinds. Zebrablinds.ca’s smart shades allow for a full integration of most Z-wave smart hubs. With that technology, the user can control movement of the blinds wit an app from one’s smart phone and they can also be connected to a Google Assistant or Alexa for full voice control. The shades can be programmed to set timers and can also be connected to other smart devices such as a smart thermostat to close shades if a room gets too hot or cold.

Cordless lifts are available for both child and pet safety, and a wide range of fabrics are used in various styles including blackout fabrics which the company says act as insulation as well as for light blocking. Included are eco-friendly solutions with energy efficient options — shades can be used to keep UV rays out in the summer as well as to provide insulation against the cold in the winter. 

Installation of Zebrablinds.ca can be done by the purchaser and the process is designed to be easy. A box is sent to the consumer’s residence with instructions for installation as well as required conduits for automation if desired. 

At a time when many are staying home during the COVID-19 pandemic, home renovations are becoming commonplace. The expanse and hassle of painting or replacing flooring can be prohibitive to many, and a new set of window shades is one opportunity to change the look of a room in an affordable and effective manner.

Prices for the blinds are highly competitive, and Zebrablinds.ca says that the cost is half that of competitors offering the same set of features. The company also offers free shipping on its range of top brands that are available at wholesale prices to consumers. 

One Zebrablinds.ca customer gave a glowing review: “So glad I kept shopping. These power blinds were exactly what I envisioned. Materials quality was the same as much more expensive roll-up shades. Choices of sizes were far greater than other blind companies, and in fact, Zebra called me back to confirm, within an eighth of an inch, my sizes. The sales staff was excellent, friendly, careful, and helpful. Installation was easy and remote controls work flawlessly. The price was less than half that of at least one supplier whose product was apparently identical but with fewer size choices and options. I'm a real customer and I hope I'm helping others to choose the best company.”

Zebrablinds.ca is an active member of the smart home community. The company has connected directly with smart home enthusiasts through various forums for more than two years, and feedback from consumers has been tremendous according to the company.

Retail Insider has had the opportunity to test out Zebrablinds.ca, and our review of the product is glowing. We were able to order the style of shades desired after examining fabric swatches of materials. When the package arrived, installation was simple as was the integration of technology to operate the shades from anywhere in the home.
