Qmotion Shades any experience

[liftn]

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with Qmotions automated shades. Any idea of pricing, reliability?

liftn,

I just received a quote of $700 for a 72 inch wide by 22" tall Q-motion shade with 5% fabric. Cost was more than I expected. Probably won't buy at this time.

I do like that the battery wand goes inside the roller tube and no wiring, remote included. But yeah still pricey.

I've been shopping for remote controlled shades for my remodel. I just saw one of these at a showroom and it was pretty slick.

I'll probably go with Somfy RTS shades for most window. But I think these Qmotion shades would be great for doors with windows since they're battery operated.

My only concern is integrating it with an automation system. I'll have to do some research. They use an RF remote so I'll need to find some sort of RS232 to RF controller. Any ideas?
