Which is better: Wooden Venetian blinds, Faux Wood Venetian blinds or Aluminium venetian blinds?
This is one of the most frequently asked questions we get at Excell Blinds! As with all blinds, this is subjective to personal taste, but in our opinion Wooden Venetian blinds provide a slightly more luxurious look and feel. However, there is very little difference between the real wood and faux wood in terms of the finished look. Therefore, faux wood is now more popular than real wood, as it looks very similar but is about 15% less expensive than real wood.
Aluminium Venetian blinds are the much more affordable option of the three styles. It all depends on your requirements. Speak to one of our advisors who will be happy to advise you on the best solution for you.
Are Aluminium venetian blinds suitable for bathrooms or areas of high humidity?
Yes they are, as aluminium doesn’t rust so moisture will not affect them.
How should I care for my Venetian blinds?
Although Venetian blinds are prone to collecting dust, they are easy to clean. To keep these blinds free from dust, you should use a feather duster or a vacuum with an upholstery brush attachment. Care should be taken when cleaning these blinds, and for a more thorough clean, it is recommended that you wipe down the blinds with a damp, soft cloth with lukewarm water. Turn the slats toward you and wipe down going easy, so you don’t bend the slats. Reverse the slats, and repeat.
