Vertical Blinds Replacement Stem and Gear, White Vertical Blind Stems, Vertical Blinds Repair Kit Used for Headrail, Carrier Stem Vertical Blinds Curtain Accessories（12 Sets）

They work for an apt. They fit, a little tricky to use but for the value of money and durability they are top notch.

I contacted two blinds conpanies about repairing a blind in my living room, one told me it would be better to replace the whole blind at a cost of $210.00 the other wanted $175.00 to come out and repair the blind. A friend told me to look on you tube and find a video about repairing blinds, and sure enough there was one, so after watching the video, these stems/gears worked excellent, easy to pop in and the repair was completed, saved me Big money!

The carriers would not fit the rail on my vertical blinds. However, I was able to just pull the gears out of a few of them and use them as replacement gears on the already existing carriers. Quality seems good. First gear was pain to snap in, but they got easier to install after the second one. So overall, they worked.

Exactly what I needed! Bought new blinds and one of the slats was missing this piece and would swing mindlessly when opening or closing the blinds. Most time i would have to maneuver them by hand which if you open your blinds daily can be quite annoying! This took less than like 3 seconds to install lol it took more time getting the package from the front door than to install it.

Perfect fit for existing blinds

It shows a rectangular piece of plastic with teeth on top. This is the correct plastic insert for 20 yr. old or newer blinds. It does not show how to insert it into a "stem with a horizontal gear on top." As it turns out, without the rectangular insert that measures 0.53" ln x 0.22" hi, the new replacement "stem with gear on top " will rotate freely in a circle and screw everything up! Excessive light will enter through the edges of the plastic planes meant to block all light. This is the exact spot where so-called apartment repair professionals screw up. When replacing the vertical blind stems they break and throw away these little rectangular pieces. That is all the makers of this kit need to do is to show how to instal them. I needed to remove one and bring it down for examination, but I got pooped. If this little itty bitty is not done right, you are up to buying a new kit. I rent and greedy apartment managers, will not let anyone improve anything.

Dropped one that went to my blinds and couldn't find it. These worked perfectly

I was happy to see these available to replace broke one. I had a father that thought they hang righ he could twist them -- you can't. When I saw these on Amazon I was excited to fix the broken ones so it didn't look so bad.When they arrived I was pleased with the quality and inclosion of an extra gear so they turn smoothly. My issue is that there is no instructions on how to replace them in the mechanism. Ended up at the blind store requesting assistance.
