ARLO BLINDS Faux Wood Blinds with Crown Valance - 63 in x 60 in

In this review of the ARLO BLINDS faux wood blinds the bottom line is straightforward: these cordless 2 in faux wood blinds are best for homeowners who want a durable, moisture-resistant, easy-to-clean alternative to real wood with a neat, built-in crown valance. The reviewer found the major reason to buy is the combination of a polished look and practical cordless design that increases child and pet safety while still offering solid light control and a realistic appearance for interior windows and doors.

Key Features

• Exact sizing guidance: The blind measures 63 in and is intended for inside mounts where the frame width is between 63.375 and 64 in, helping avoid poor fits and light gaps.
• Decorative crown valance: The matching 3-1/4 in tall crown valance with side-covers hides hardware and creates a finished, upscale appearance without added accessories.
• Durable faux wood slats: The 2 in slats are PVC, moisture resistant and engineered to resist warping, peeling, and staining in humid rooms or sun-exposed windows.
• Cordless safety and control: The cordless lift design with a wand tilt control is certified Best for Kids and simplifies tilt adjustment for privacy and light control.
• Simple installation: All required hardware and clear instructions are included, and customers report very short install times when measurements are correct.
• Door-ready options: For door installs the hardware includes hold-down brackets so the blind can be secured to prevent movement.

Who It's For

The blinds are ideal for homeowners, renters, and parents seeking a low-maintenance look that mimics real wood without the drawbacks of real timber; they work especially well in bathrooms, kitchens, and sunrooms because the PVC slats tolerate moisture and sunlight. They are also a strong choice for families with children or pets who need a cordless, safer option and for anyone who wants a tidy, built-in valance for a polished window treatment.

These blinds are less suitable for windows that do not match the specified measurements closely; if your inside-frame width is significantly smaller or larger than the recommended range, or you need custom fitting beyond the available sizes, consider other size options from the brand before purchasing.
