Class C roller blind brand?

I have a 2018 Chateau 31E with roller blinds. Does anyone know what brand they are? I thought they were MCD blinds, but after exchanging photos and info with an MCD rep I found out that they are not.


I have had 4 of them fail with the same problem -- they won't stay down.

I don't know about the class Cs made in plant 650, but plant 750 puts a list of all vendor supplied equipment on the inside of the bedroom closet door. If you can't find the list, a call to Thor customer care should get you the manufacture.

are you under warranty?

...we had some issues with our automated United Shade front electric blind, and was replaced under warranty. https://unitedshade.com/

...and have replaced the mounts on the manual bedroom pair(sun and privacy), which is Irvine Slow-Rise brand. Slow-Rise Roller Shades : Irvine Shade and Door

Thanks for the replies.
The first 3 that failed were replaced under warranty, but I am now no longer under warranty.


I first thought they were MCD blinds, but I contacted there tech support and found out that they are not. The MCD rep thought it might be Auto Motion, but I contacted them and was told it was not an Auto Motion shade. It does look a lot like the Irvine Slow Rise shades on their website, so that might be it.


When I removed the spring assembly and the auto-stop assembly I didn't see anything obviously broken or worn, so I'm not sure exactly what is failing.

Thanks. Mine do look like the Irvine slow rise shades.


After taking one apart and reassembling it, it started working again, but I did the same to another shade and it didn't work.
