Motorized Blinds Grey 35.5 x 72 No Drill Automatic Roller Shades

Our review of the Motorized Blinds No Drill Automatic Blinds for Windows explains who will get the most from this grey 35.5 x 72 cordless roller shade and why. The bottom line: this model is best for renters or homeowners who want a quick, damage-free upgrade to a smart window covering that blocks light fully and adds a modern look. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a no-drill inside-mount install and a three-layer blackout fabric that delivers strong UV and privacy protection without permanent hardware changes.

Key Features

• No-drill installation: Adhesive extension blocks and an inside-mount design let the shade be fitted without drilling, ideal for rental windows or quick retrofits.
• Battery-powered motor: A top-mounted battery compartment makes power simple to replace so the shade can remain cordless and uncluttered.
• Three-layer blackout fabric: The textured blackout material reduces light and UV while preserving privacy, suitable for bedrooms and media rooms.
• Remote and smart control: Built-in remote control is included and the AX290 motor can be connected to a smart bridge for app and voice control with Alexa and Google Assistant.
• Light-blocking valance: A stylish valance covers the gap between fabric and rail, improving room darkening and providing a finished appearance.
• Warranty and support: A two-year warranty on motors and controllers plus a 60-day replacement policy for damaged fabric or parts ensures reasonable aftercare.

Who It's For

This shade is for renters and homeowners seeking a cordless, easy-install blackout solution that adds smart control without hardwiring. It fits well in bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, and office areas where privacy and light blocking are priorities and where an inside-mount can be used.

It might not be the best choice for someone who needs an outside mount, a heavy-duty industrial motor, or a fully integrated smart hub included in the box; the AX290 motor requires a separate smart bridge for native app and voice control if those features are desired.

Pros & Cons
