I installed cellular pull shades. Worth it.

When you say it "has popped," please define what that means.I have no had any issues, so I am trying to understand what is happening with yours. I just slide it up and down. I don't try to pull outward from the window while doing so.
I was doing some searching, and it is possible to re-string the blinds. There are several videos on YouTube which can show you how. If your 'Pod is less than a year old, you could see about warranty replacement (two years if you bought the extended warranty from Forest River). |

This is only about the 4th trip I've taken in the pod so... the odds are about 75% that a window shade will self-destruct whenever I go anywhere. I'd prefer some sort of curtain arrangement.

One window has popped twice. This past trip, one in the rear did the same thing. Yes... they are strung from the top to the bottom and the accordion is supposed to go up and down on the strings.

Mine work great. They pull up and down on two strings on each side. The strings have to be tight, like a stringed instrument.

Are yours not attached at the bottom end?

The accordion window shades are always popping and becoming unstrung whereupon they just hang there, ugly, flaccid and useless. It's such that I'm afraid to touch them lest they break.
I'd like to trash them. Anyone done anything with curtains or other types of blinds?
