I've used them in some pretty high-end hospitality projects back in Manhattan. Lutron's one of those companies where you definitely get what you pay for. Just be prepared for install - I think they have certified installers or something along those lines (or maybe that's only for their control panels...). Again, worth it if you got it.

Have fun,

Did you ever get more info on the Palladiom shades? Looking at them for a project too
