They don’t make them like they used to...

These things were what Amazon recommended in place of the (out of stock) traditional corded blinds in our apartment. First, the old brackets won’t work anymore so I had to replace them. Then, the screws that come with this weren’t long enough to go past the drywall and in to any serious wood to hold their weight as I had to mount them inside and they only have one screw hole vertically even though the online instructions show two. Then, you have to get the brackets JUST right or when you go to pull the blinds down you risk yanking them off the brackets and smashing the back of your head. I hate them and if I can find the old style corded or a manufacturer with a more secure mounting method I will be replacing them immediately.
