OMG. You read my mind! I was literally researching about Soma Shades 2. Thanks a bunch for demonstrating how it works. New subscriber to your channel here. I find you comparison videos and explanations easy to follow. Now here’s praying that I’ll be lucky to get one set of the giveaways as it would complete my smart home journey!

@asmrgolf 3 года назад

Hi Alex! Yet another well thought out informative and straight to the point video! It has definitely helped me as a reference point to design my upcoming new house! Keep it up with the quality videos! :)

@ericgoh8036 3 года назад

Interesting to know there’s a smart solution for normal blinds. Thanks for introducing soma. Almost regret that I did not get smart blinds for my recent replacement. Hope to get a set to try out for my study room.

@AshleySpace1111 Год назад

Ya soma sounds great, simple solution and won’t burnt a hole in the pocket

@will1thing 3 года назад

wow would totally love a set of the soma smart shade because it integrates into existing blinds but turns it into a smart blind! thanks for the demo and the explanation!

@jiahuilim7598 3 года назад

Thank you Alex! Very informative and helpful as usual. I always get stressed up when I'm giving a lot of choice to choose from and I'm not very smart when it comes to smart things hahahahah. Your video came at a very very right timing as I'm currently planning for my house, it's like I receive a guidance when I'm lost. I like your step by step guide and explanation which I can always refer back to. The part on IKEA blinds, I will probably overlook about the gap if it wasn't for your video. Just wanna say that I appreciate your time and hardwork in sharing with us your knowledge. Thank you!!!! :')

@AlexTeo 3 года назад

yeah i think the gap from ikea blinds will be easily overlooked because you see so many other normal blinds being placed side by side with each other haa, but if your window has a thick frame inbetween then its fine

@mlchay 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing different types of smart blinds - so informative and I realise that I still don’t know a lot. Really enjoy your videos. Realise you know so much about household stuff and really makes mummies like me need to buck up☺️.

@stevenchiu2764 3 года назад

This is indeed perfect for my daughter's room which faces the setting sun. The room boils up in the afternoon and by the time, we are home, it is way too late to close the window and waste to much energy to cool it. If we can get this, it will mean we can have it close at the right time of the day and open just nice to see the setting sun. Alex, thanks for a good recommendation and video again! I had shared your video to a curtain shop and he is so happy that I did it, it's like a miracle to him. Thank you once again!!

@AlexTeo 3 года назад

oh? what info does the curtain guy like about the video?

@stevenchiu2764 3 года назад

@@AlexTeo, he was always been wondering what other alternatives there are cos his customers kept asking him they wanna have this but the overall cost is very high thus the last video you did gave him an alternative to recommend to his customers. :)

One of the most advantage of our curtains is that we are selling patented curtain in kit with spliced track, your end customers can DIY the length of track from 2.2 meters to 8.2 meters, it is very convenient for distributor and store/online seller to sell it, and also standard package make shipping and stock more easier.
