These blinds are a good balance of quality and affordability. From a distance they might pass for real wood, up close they’re obviously plastic but a high quality, durable plastic. I just got them but I imagine that they’ll last long without warping. Connecting the valences to the clips was a little tricky, but otherwise installation was quick and easy. They don’t close up perfectly and one of the two I bought is a little crooked so they do let some light through, but they’re still more effective at blocking light than the curtains I had on my windows previously. Overall I would recommend these if you can’t afford real wood.
