John,
I have had trouble with my shade by the kitchenette. I've had to remember to pull out the base of the shade to clear the window opener knob. I forgot one time and the right hand side (away from the window knob) came up and darn, the left didn't follow because it got caught on the window knob, so now I have a slight tear on the shade nearest the window, and I have to watch so that it doesn't catch again. I thought I saw on this forum a knob or handle set that could be installed on the bar or base of the shade to put equal pressure to raise or lower the shade. Just thought I'd add my two cents worth.
