Based on my research thus far IKEA’s FYRTUR is my leader in terms of cost and quality (and of course spousal acceptance), but any advice/recommendations would be appreciated. TIA!

My only experience is Hunter Douglas.

They are $$$$$ but damn they are nice.

I recently installed a dozen of the Yoolax battery operated shades I found on Amazon. Awesome product.

They offer custom sizing, a dozen fabric options, and are Alexa enabled right out of the box. One of their $20 remotes will control up to 15 sets of blinds and offer a "group" channel as well allowing you to lower or raise all shades at once. They should run 9-12 mos on a single charge and are re-charged with the provided mini usb cable and wall wart in 8 hours. My windows were all roughly 3' x 6' and price per shade was ~$210 shipped and arrived in 10 days.

I like most of this guy's projects and reviews/suggestions. He's a bit off the mark on security cameras (and I'm not the only one who thinks so), but for most things he details them out pretty well.

I bought a Serena shade by Lutron. Really impressed with it but it was $$$$$. Part of the expense was it was a 4x4 window so a bit of an unusual size.

you dont like the reolinks? He is also so heavy wifi that he balks at zwave or zigbee.

They're fine in daylight, and even with the limited utility at night they're a pretty great value. But if you click around the IPCT forums they pretty much just trash reolink for the horrible motion blur in low light. Same problem I found with them.
