Three honest trade-offs
Hard-wearing, or soft?
Faux wood, vinyl, PVC
Don’t mind steam, and wipe clean.
Cellular or roman
Soft and warm. Best away from the shower.
Always open at the top, or your choice?
Café-style shutters
Only the lower half is covered, on Summerview or Somerset. Simple, with nothing to adjust.
Top-down cellular
Move the top edge to exactly where you want it.
Real wood, or faux wood?
Real wood blinds
Lovely in a dry room, but not by the shower.
Faux wood blinds
The same look, made for humid rooms.
Window over the tub?
Somfy motors and hubs are available. Our smart-home automation works with most of our motorized products: schedules, phone and voice. How smart-home control works
- Tilt-only faux woodA wand angles the slats, and the blind stays down. No lifting over the tub.
- Cordless liftRaise and lower it by the bottom bar. Nothing hangs down.
- MotorizedRemote, wall switch, phone or voice. We choose a motor strong enough for your shade.
