Venetian blinds blackout slats

Hello everyone!

We are planning large windows facing south.

In our current apartment, we have already become accustomed to the advantages of [Raffstores].

- individual brightness in the rooms with simultaneous shading
- simply tilt the slats without having to raise the entire blinds
- pleasant privacy, with a view to the outside

The only thing that bothers us at the moment is that the bedrooms cannot be made completely dark.
In a prefabricated house park, we were able to convince ourselves of the effectiveness of the blackout slats.

Now my questions:

Has anyone of you gained experience in everyday use?
How sensitive are the slats to wind?
Would you equip bedrooms and living rooms differently?
From our point of view, the light incidence with the normal slats is simply nicer.

Or would that be too conspicuous visually?

We are considering possibly differentiating by floor level.
Does anyone know the approximate price difference?

At the moment we favor the manufacturer [Warema].

Best regards

Fanta

Hello Fanta,

we simply had roller shutters installed completely on the upper floor and venetian blinds on the ground floor, in my opinion not bad visually at all, we even have a single venetian blind on the upper floor, but in a bay window where there is also a window with venetian blind on the ground floor. Venetian blinds, whether rail- or cable-guided, rattle in the wind and you really can’t get them completely dark.

Regards,
Sebastian
