Just FYI for anyone who has ever ordered roman shades from Linensource.com:

I just spent 30 minutes on the phone with them trying to locate information about the retrofit kit because of the recall. They have nothing at this time and the CSR is now trying to track down the information on the manufacturer so I can contact the manufacturer directly. We have three cats and a baby on the way and I'd really, really like to resolve this ASAP and I'm pretty disappointed they don't have a plan in place, especially since most of the vendors whose websites I've looked at while shopping for shades and blinds for other rooms of the house have the information posted on their sites already.

Also, I'm ordering the shades for the other rooms from Domestications.com. 35x64 pleated cordless shades are $29.99/each. I'll provide a full report.

UPDATE: Linensource just called me back and "has nothing at the time" on the recall. Pathetic.
