Graywind Motorized Shangrila Shades | Wide Series | Customizable

While attractive my shades do not function so well with the Bluetooth motor and smart hub. App integration is totally clumsy. Alexa integration works properly only 30% of the time with no simple way to adjust blinds beyond open/close controls. I typically have to dictate command to open/close blinds 2-3 times to get all 3 to actuate. I do believe this should be better

I had my whole house window treatments replaced by Gaywind products. Turnaround time was fast (they got to work right away). It looks beautiful! I love it, my family loves it, my friends love it! I am one happy satisfied customer.

I love these blinds! Love the ease of motors and scheduled times for up and down. Look very nice in my home. However I made the mistake and ordered about 1-2 includes too short, due to the fact that every inch costs more. I read, but obviously didn't understand the measuring instructions well as they pertain to my window frames.

Added the Graywind Motorized Shangrila Shades recently. Turnaround time on the order was quick.
Install was easy, they look great, sync with Alexa was easy (we love this feature). I've read some reviews where some couldn't connect the smart blinds with Alexa. If you first use the Graywind app, it's effortless. Takes only a minute. Commands "open", "close", or "set blinds to 50%" or however far you want them, is so convenient. With the Shangrila Shades, they have the added feature of flipping to an open position when all the way down, which provides filtered light. We've found that the command "close blind" will bring them all the way down and then flip to this filtered light position. However, "set blind to 95%" brings them all the way down but leaves them in room-darkening mode. The Graywind app is nice. Slide the image of the blind to whatever position you want. We did get one remote too. Everything works, and looks, as hoped.

We did not go with solar charging since our cords could be hidden and plugs were conveniently located.

Installed 2 Shangrila Motorized Shades (wide series) with zigbee motors, side by side. One about 3' wide and the other almost 6' wide. I was extra careful during the install and all went well (the 1st time). I control them with one remote and I have automated them using Home Assistant via the ZHA integration. Information I found on-line suggested using the zigbee2mqtt integration instead of ZHA, but I chose to stick with ZHA. I cannot yet tilt the blinds (even with the remote). Graywind suggests using Alexa for that. Graywind also suggests using the plug-in WiFi motors, instead of Zigbee, for those who wish to automate their blinds. I had my reasons for my choses. I am very pleased with the outcome. I am comfortable that future updates to Home Assistant will allow me to tilt the blinds in the not to distant future.
