We bought a pre-owned...some of what the previous owner did we like.
For example, unlike a previous poster, we love the garage screen. We get an amazing breeze through the house thanks to the ability to open the solid door, close the screen door, and open the indoor doors to the garage. To each his own, but I love my garage screen door.
We wanted plantation shutters, and got them with the house, and generally like them, but as others mentioned, we can't tilt the windows in to clean them, and getting the screens in and out is very hard to do, nearly impossible without kinking the screen frame. I'm interested in the fix mentioned in another post.
The house came with lovely palms. PITA....they are gone.
I thought I'd like more solar tubes, we have a couple....meh....not include to do more.
