Hello,
does anyone have a tip on where to order good quality pleated blinds at reasonable prices?
So far, I have only visited websites where they want over €70 for one pleated blind. Maybe my price expectations are wrong, or is that a normal price?

I hope someone here has relevant experience

Thanks!

Deco Profi pleated blind from Amazon, 75x220cm (30x87 inches), costs about 30€. You need to take your window measurements plus about 5cm (2 inches). They are clip-on, and I’m very impressed.
Are they clamped at the top and bottom of the window frame? Are they stable?

Yes, exactly. The bracket itself is made of metal and is fixed to the frame with a screw. Not directly into the frame itself... The casing around it is made of plastic. The straps are sturdy. You can also tighten the straps later if they stretch a bit over time.

So far, I had no experience buying pleated blinds, but I didn’t want those flimsy types.

We then ordered some for the bathrooms from Roolorieper.de.

They are opaque and stick directly onto the glass. They look very neat and fit tightly. Of course, depending on the window size, they cost a bit over €100.

I have some that stick onto the glass from Amazon. They are okay and cost around 30€ (about $33) each. I didn’t want to screw anything into the window or stick anything onto the seal. I don’t rent anymore, after all...
