LazBlinds Cellular Shades, 32" x 64

For a room where you want daylight without leaving the window completely exposed, LazBlinds TDBU cellular shades offer light-filtering fabric and independent top-down/bottom-up adjustment. You can lower the top rail to let light in while keeping the lower part of the window covered, or raise the shade from the bottom when you want a clearer view. The cordless design keeps hanging cords out of the way, and the honeycomb construction is intended to help with insulation and noise absorption. One important detail before ordering: the listed 32-inch width is not the actual shade width.

Highlights

The white polyester fabric is designed to diffuse sunlight rather than block it completely, which can make a living room or bedroom feel bright without direct glare. Its top-down/bottom-up control gives you more flexibility than a basic shade that only moves from the bottom: you can choose where privacy and incoming light meet. The cordless mechanism is operated by moving the rails by hand, and the product description says a mechanical stopper helps keep the middle rail stable during adjustment.

The 1-inch honeycomb cells are intended to trap air for temperature control. Noise reduction is also a stated benefit, including a claim of 30% more noise absorption, but the listing does not provide test conditions to show how that figure translates to a particular room. It suits you if adjustable light and a cord-free design matter more than blackout coverage or a precise acoustic result.

How to use it

Move the top rail down when you want daylight from above while covering the lower window, or raise the bottom rail for a more open view. Adjust both rails to find a position that works for the room and time of day. This is useful in a street-facing bedroom, for example: you can leave the upper glass open to light while keeping the lower portion covered. The light-filtering fabric softens incoming sunlight, so it is aimed at managing brightness and privacy, not creating a fully dark room.

Practical tips

For an inside mount, the listed actual shade width is 31.625 inches, even though the selected size is 32 inches. The description says the shade is made 2/5 inch narrower for a snug fit, so measure the window opening and account for that difference before choosing a size. For an outside mount, the listing recommends ordering 2–4 inches wider than the window for better coverage. Keep in mind that the right choice depends on how the shade will be mounted, using the inside-mount sizing approach for an outside mount could leave more of the window uncovered than intended.

Compared with a simple bottom-up shade, the extra top-down adjustment offers more control over where light enters. If your priority is full darkness, however, a light-filtering fabric is the wrong direction. You may want to skip it if blackout coverage is essential or you need independently verified noise-reduction performance.

Questions before you buy

Does this shade darken a room completely? No. The listed fabric is light filtering and is described as diffusing sunlight, not blocking all light.

What is the actual width of the 32-inch option? The product description gives an actual width of 31.625 inches and a height of 64 inches.

Can you adjust light from the top as well as the bottom? Yes. The TDBU system lets you position the rails to control the balance of light, privacy, and ventilation.

Buying verdict

These shades make sense when you want a clean cordless setup, softened daylight, and more placement options than a standard bottom-up blind. The sizing detail deserves attention: match the mounting method to the listed width before ordering, especially for an inside fit. Choose them for flexible everyday light control and honeycomb construction, look elsewhere if you need a blackout window covering or expect a specific, proven level of sound reduction.
