The blind itself is a lovely design and it looked really great in my spare room.

I have had the blind for a year and a half and being in my spare room it doesn't get used a lot, but the plastic fixings on the back have all cracked, so it doesn't function correctly anymore. If one plastic fixing had cracked, I would understand, but four have failed in the same place.

Atelier-lumieres only cover their items for a year. Personally, I would expect a blind to last long than a year.
