I also got Z-wave shades from Bali when Home Depot had a 50% off custom window treatments sale. They've been wonderful, and integrate with Home Assistant very nicely overall. Battery lasts a long time (about 6 months of use, with a daily "round trip" and they're still at about 60%) and status gets reported back. One piece on one shade got machined weirdly so I couldn't use the Z-wave, and they were happy to send a replacement.
Bali is manufactured by a company called Springs Window Fashions. Might be worth looking into them and their other brands too!
Oh, and Home Depot has sample material books you can take home for a night to see what would work best for you.
