I went to IKEA today and there are no 34” or larger blinds/shades in stock. Just like their website and app say. So i go to an employee and ask her when they are expecting new stock. She goes to their computer and enters the model number 504.74.164 for the 34” blinds. She says they are DISCONTINUED. Here’s hoping she is wrong. These were just introduced and are getting mostly great reviews.
Added later : IKEA ‘s email reply stated they are having supplier issues. No idea when they will be back in stock, but at least they aren’t discontinued.
Update: After gradually rolling out to IKEA stores around the United States in October, IKEA has now made the FYTUR and KADRILJ smart blinds available for online purchase as well.
I am wanting 9 of the 34” blinds. Not wanting to be greedy I tried to order 3 online. Nope. How about 2. Nope. So I paid a total of $217.84 for 1 blind that sells for $159 in the store. Shipping is $49.00.
No one is twisting my arm to buy this but dang. $49 shipping and I am an IKEA family member.
I don’t know the answer. To add the integration, the new app is required. Whether they can be used in the Classic app with the new integration, I do not know.
I want to purchase some but the shipping costs were deferring me from purchasing. Now that it appears the shipping costs have dropped in my area, I may get some.
