Choosing the Right Blinds Can Be Tough. Take a Look at These Tips to Help You Make the Right Choice

While there are multiple types of window coverings you can choose from, the two main blinds are; roller blinds and venetian blinds. They are both great blinds, but each has pros and cons which you should consider before making a purchase.

If you choose the right ones for your windows, they will provide the exact amount of light when needed, block the light when needed and enhance the décor of your room. Other things to consider are their weight and whether they are waterproof and easy to clean, if you intend to use them in rooms with a lot of moisture.

How to Choose Between Roller Blinds and Venetian Blinds

Which is More Simple to Clean?

Both can be dusted and simply wiped down with a damp cloth. Venetian blinds can be a little trickier to clean, just because you have to wipe down each individual slat which can take a little longer.

Which Offers More privacy?

Venetian blinds give you the ability to control the amount of privacy you have, as you can slant the slats and allow a bit of light in or totally close them for complete privacy.

With traditional roller blinds, it’s kind of all or nothing as you have to pull them up giving you no privacy, or you can opt for dual roller blinds so you have a blockout and a view.

Do Venetian Blinds or Roller Blinds Last Longer?

If roller blinds and venetian blinds are properly cared for, they should both last for many years.

Of course you get what you pay for and if you choose the cheapest options, be aware they won’t have as much longevity as a more expensive type. Roller blinds may just take the top spot for durability, due to the fact that venetian blinds have slats which can occasionally be susceptible to breakage, especially if you have children or pets in your home.
