What’s New at Metropolitan Window Fashions! 08/27/09

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

You may have heard about the product recall of over five million window shades that were sold at Target, IKEA, Home Depot Expo, Pottery Barn Kids and other mass merchants.  The reason for this recall is that these products are not child-safe.

We want to assure our customers that we have never sold any of the products being recalled.  We place a large emphasis on child safe window treatments that include break-away cords, cordless lift systems and motorized shades.

If you have any questions about your window treatments and whether they are child-safe, please call us – regardless of where you purchased them.  Please ask for our custom decorating department.  We are currently offering a rebate of $10 per foot – up to $100 per window – to replace old shades and blinds.
