Some weren’t willing to travel an hour to install or didn’t even respond to the request for more information and pricing. Right from my first email request to Made in the Shade; however, Dagny was quick to respond – that same day! She was more than willing to go out of her way to meet me with samples and arrange for a stop to measure. After managing an almost year-long renovation project, it was, honestly, so refreshing to see that kind of customer service. Dagny made me feel like she really appreciated having my business and cared about me getting the best and most-suitable product I could afford. Her pricing was competitive and she followed through with a quick install just weeks after the order was placed. Thank you to Dagny and her installer for making one of the final touches on my renovation so easy. I absolutely love my Silhouette blinds and they look beautiful!”
