The louvered roof is attractive and functional providing cover from rain yet it will quickly open to allow in the sunshine.
We would happily recommend Caribbean Blinds to other customers looking for a canopy that offers both great design and versatility!
It’s only been a couple of weeks and we haven’t had the best of weather since then but it’s already improved our experience of being out in the garden and despite some fears that it would be too big or too imposing, it does blend in and just oozes quality. The team were great and the thing is just brilliantly engineered.
The installation was completed in five days, but the extras that I requested which was to infill over a brick wall proved to be tricky for the "experts". The side leaked constantly for months, and there's is still water seeping through due to the aluminium sheets not aligning properly. It was "fixed" with aluminium flashing tape which my neighbours have commented on.
The Pod itself is supposed to be guaranteed for 5 years, but beware of the lighting strips as they are only warranted for one year. `All mine have failed in just over 18 months. Last weekend one on my four heaters wouldn't turn off, and it's not covered under their warranty.
As I say Great Concept, but shop around because my experience is that after installation you'll be left wanting for the most important aspect... moving parts and electrics.
After messing me around, they finally came and fixed an issue on warranty and then after the fact had the cheek to issue me with a £300 bill for the warranty work.
They claim this is in line with the contract and it is absolutely not. Since then, they have been harassing me with invoices for the £300 that is not due.
Further to the sellers response:
The only reason I had to take the sensor off was due to Caribbean Blinds failing to come out to fix the issue when asked. They also know in advance that I had removed the sensor (under their instruction) and I could not find the sensor. There is no contractual basis on which to charge me and the work was stated to be done under warranty, without condition and issuing a bill afterwards by trying to impose new conditions is totally unacceptable practice.
Amazingly, they have stated in their response that they'll stop harassing me if I find the sensor (which could only be worth c£10), whether it is faulty or not. That shows just how petty they are as well as being totally wrong in falsifying a requirement for me to pay.
Avoid!!!
