See why custom faux wood blinds could be right for you
Faux wood blinds have become one of the most popular types of window treatments thanks to their adjustable light and privacy control and classic styling. They also have these great benefits compared to real wood blinds or other types of window coverings:
- Faux wood blinds are typically made from a unique PVC material—a durable polymer that is impervious to moisture. You can confidently use faux woods in kitchens and bathrooms without worrying about water and humidity damaging them.
- This also means that faux wood blinds are easy to clean and maintain. You can also put our durable faux wood blinds in high-traffic areas since they are less likely to get damaged or soiled.
- Faux wood blinds have an economical price, helping to keep your design budget low without compromising style or functionality. You can get cheap faux wood blinds from Blindster without sacrificing quality.
- You can easily rotate the blind slats open and closed for flexible privacy and light control, or raise the blinds fully with our easy-to-use cordless faux wood blinds.
- Today’s so-called fake wood blinds are almost impossible to distinguish from real wood, so you can put them in any room in the house.
Choosing the best faux wood blinds is easy at Blindster. We have options to fit every budget and every style. Here’s what to consider and how to start shopping:

- Our custom faux wood selections all come with cordless lift for a clean look, easy operation, and child safety.
Wood blinds are attractive and durable but have limitations. Wood blinds can fade, peel, and discolor over time when exposed to sunlight and heat. They are also not suitable for bathrooms and kitchens where high humidity can damage the wood.
In contrast, choose faux wood blinds for windows for rooms with high humidity, and to resist fading and peeling when exposed to sunlight. UV inhibitors in the slats protect against color changes. The polymer slats are also moisture resistant, which keeps your faux wood blinds looking great even in humid conditions.
Wood blinds are actually the better choice for windows where direct sunlight creates an excessive amount of heat on the interior side of the window, since excessive or extreme heat can adversely affect faux wood slats.
