Curtains or Roller Binds for your kids room ?

[atrecord]

I also have some experience to share. Our ID told us curtain only nice for full height glass door, and told us to do roller blinds for all the rooms. Then the toilets (shower, bath area) also did roller blinds cos they are going to be wet area (so curtains won’t work, unless go for those plastic shower curtains that do not look nice)…


So we did lots of roller blinds. Then do already, found that there are a lot of gaps in between the blinds, as well as betw the blinds and the wall, etc. This is of course a big problem, as privacy is compromised. End up have to put some frosted films at the relevant areas…

Hence my advice is to go for blinds wherever possible. For toilets, shower, bath, I think maybe frost the glass…

Only study room I think roller blinds would be good…

I hv a question for those who have blinds in their room. When it is windy and you sleep with the blinds down, it is always flapping? Or do most pple with blinds sleep with air con? Wondering if blinds are good if your windows are open most of the time?

I just changed from roller blinds to uv blinds. Looks greater, feels cooler, and can let some air or sunlight in. Overall, very happy with it. In bedroom I use dark and day curtains.

I used to have blinds and i find it quite noisy so i changed… you can consider changing to curtains or roller blinds… Curtains=Variety but hassle when want to wash, Roller blinds=Boring but ease of cleaning

If you open windows with roller blinds, can become noisy. UV or venetian won’t.

hi hi

uv blinds are 1.5inches in width looks like wood not made of another material that can withstand uv light and will not fade.

venetian blinds are smaller, thinner and made of a more flimsy material.

Both waterproof and operates by similar mechanism, opens horizontally.

Hi jenao

Didn't see your message earlier...

It was precisely due to the constant irritating flapping that I decided to change my vertical and roller blinds to uv blinds whenever I opened my windows. Now, no more flapping, cooler, brighter, classier. Roller blinds are good if you use air con n dun open windows. Hope that helps. Plus, the ago between roller blinds are wider so if you have to put two pieces side by side there will be a one inch gap. Not for uv blinds.

I got my curtains from JWT Curtains through "recommendations" from the internet. Then I realised I am conned! The recommendation by a user "cheerygal" in renotalk, cozycot & other website, i believe is the boss of the company!


Don’t be fooled. My curtains from JWT curtains got stains on it, the curtains tracks are poorly aligned that the curtains cannot be opened & closed properly. The boss promised to rectify after I make full payment, but disappeared & refused to take my calls or reply my repeated SMSes.

I am about to lodge a Case report against JWT Curtains. So, pls beware of JWT Curtains! Do not make full payment until you are satisfied with their works!
