I just had [another thread](https://community.openhab.org/t/which-hardware-works-best-for-zwave-and-blinds/143265/32) about blinds where someone pointed out that the Bali Zwave blinds worked well and were less expensive than the Hunter Douglas. Somfy also got some discussion in that thread.

I haven’t tried either yet, got distracted by work and security cameras.
