Hi there,

I am just wondering what your experiences are with Faux Wood Blinds. I have founf some interesting info on them but i would like to hear some peoples views on them. Better then real wood? Easier to keep clean? Easier to manage. I would love to hear you opinions.

the main difference is looks - if you're wanting white or off white, i'd go with whichever is least expensive, but i've found that if you're wanting a stained color, the real wood is the way to go. the faux blinds in wood tones still look fake to me. also, for damp/humid areas, like bathrooms or garages, the faux wood will hold up better.
