Eye on Design Drapery, Shutters & Blinds

Finally, I can sleep in darkness! I could not be more pleased with the Hunter Douglas Skylift Skylight Shades we just had installed in our bedroom by Eye on Design in Belleville. Quite simply, they do much more than block sunlight – they change the entire ambiance of the room. Rather than simply blocking the skylights, these battery-​operated shades seem to make them disappear, giving the appearance and feel of a true ceiling, rather than two bright and chilly recessed spaces.
The battery-​operated blackout shades block the morning sun, and I can finally get those early morning hours of sleep I was craving. Later in the day, when I want the room to be filled with bright daylight, I simply press a button on the remote control, and the shades slide back, revealing the skylights either partially or fully – much like the sunroof of a car. I feel like I’m on the Starship Enterprise watching these two separate shades slide back smoothly in unison. I am SO happy that I didn’t go the less expensive route and choose pole-​operated shades that would have required daily fussy and fumbling with a long stick. What a letdown those would be compared to these super-​fun, super-​gadgety Skylift blinds. I can’t wait to show them to all my friends. And then install them in my kitchen, too.
The enter process, from initial inquiry to final installation, was seamless and pleasant. Remote-​controlled skylight shades seem to be a product that is still somewhat obscure, and I called all kinds of companies and chased many dead ends before finding this solution. To say I am happy with them is an understatement. Plus, we get $ 500 Federal Energy Tax Credit – always a bonus.
Everyone on the Eye on Design team has been friendly, professional, accommodating and responsive – Jennaver, Shelly, Steve and the whole crew. I am definitely looking forward to the next project. This could become quite addictive!
