Its cordless lift raises or lowers it smoothly with just a simple touch. Its durable fabric resists tearing and wrinkling, so it’ll stay looking crisp and fresh over time. Color options include Antique Linen, Bay Leaf, Amber, Cool Silver, Daylight, Espresso, and more.Īnother reliable and stylish option is the Bali Blinds Cellular, which can lower the level of light without completely blocking it. If not, the manufacturer can cut yours down to within an eighth of an inch. The Window and Garden retains its top spot as a versatile choice that can be opened top-down or bottom-up, and chances are you’ll find just the right size you need. It slides up and down easily by way of the bottom PVC rail, which matches the one at the top. It’ll fit almost any window, thanks to its wide range of available sizes, and the ivory or white options are neutral enough for any décor. It provides a level of insulation that can help to reduce or heating and cooling costs. In this update, the Arlo Blinds Blackout makes its way into the top three choices, thanks to its unique, silver foil lining that can provide you with both a darkened room and sound absorption. Our list provides choices in a range of colors and thicknesses, equipped with a variety of different mechanisms for adjustment.
They range from completely opaque selections to those that let in some light for a sedate atmosphere. They’re kid- and pet-friendly, thanks to their lack of a pull cord or chain. Many homeowners opt for the neat, clean look of cordless shades. If they look enticing to you, perhaps you’ll be interested in taking a look through our list of smart window blinds. The Graywind and Yoolax can control nine and 15 blinds simultaneously, respectively, and are likely to make a great addition to many modern homes.
We included them on our list because we thought they were great options, and we’ve discussed their shortcomings here to help you make the best purchase decision possible, but certainly not to scare you away. Rereading this editor’s note, it occurs to me that, based on all this, our new options sound rather horrendous. (If you’re not qualified for this, we strongly recommend calling in a reputable, licensed electrician, for safety’s sake.) With that in mind, you may either be looking at another eyesore – in the form of an extension cord – or a frustrating afternoon fumbling with a wire fishing tool to get a new plug installed. By contrast, the Graywind is a plug-and-play model, but its power cord is only two meters long, so it’s unlikely that it’ll reach the nearest outlet. The Yoolax is battery powered – and it can run three to six months on a charge, which is nothing to sneeze at – but if you want to keep it running continuously and indefinitely, you’ll likely need to purchase a small solar panel separately, which doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re in for a massive expense, but is still likely to amount to a small inconvenience and potential eyesore. The Graywind Roller Shade and Yoolax Motorized can both be operated via infrared remote control or several popular smart-home systems, but you might need to purchase some separate hardware to make it happen - the Yoolax model needs a hub for voice control and the remote for the Graywind is sold separately.īoth our new choices also present small problems when it comes to powering them. We replaced our two fallen selections with a pair of motorized models that we thought were likely to appeal to heavy-walleted users shopping in this category, as they combine the cordless styling that’s seen in this space with convenient control options. However, we did let the Chicology Zebra and Miro Trimmable go, noticing that neither option was available at the time of this update. Learn more about this innovation.Most of our existing choices were still great picks for the category, so there wasn’t a terrible amount of heavy lifting that needed to get done during this round of updates. Motorized shades are now available with a rechargeable battery wand or you can add feature to your existing automated shades for added convenience. We get everything set up for you on installation day so all that’s left to do is enjoy!
