Hi all, i just cleaned my room curtain yesterday. And i find it a hassle to actually climb the ladder, unhook each of them, wash and then climb back up and hook them back. I find it a bit too ancient this method. Are there any new types of curtains that i can use without frequent washing?

Would some sort of modern blinds good? My room is also semi facing the sunset so i do need some sort of good cover, and adjustable too.

Thanks.

My windows are pretty wide and long, though I don’t know the exact length, roller/zebra blinds have no issues?
I have been looking at roller/zebra blinds too, i think just weekly wipe and vacuum on the top would be quite sufficient to clean them? instead of the usual curtains.

are roller blinds effective in keeping the sun out?

can curtains actually keep the heat out? Theoretically even if the curtain keeps the heat out, the walls will also get heated up and in the end the room will also get heated up anyways.

so basically there are no materials that entirely keep the heat out unless you are talking about Nasa-insulated-technology.

Anyways, there are also thicker roller blinds right? Im using very thick curtains right now, while they do their jobs and block the setting sun but I find them hard to clean, and also the fabric produces a lot of dusts, cause well they are clothes.... and rather have something simpler like roller blinds.

it's too big to vacuum, and too tall. I made it from the ceiling to floor. Besides, they start to disintegrate after a while. Just like any clothes. My curtains right now are deep wine red. And guess what when I vacuum around the floor? I see the dust inside my vacuum is all wine red colors. It means that the materials are disintegrating as i don't have any other red materials. So it's producing dusts itself. hahaha! ironically, it's one of the best materials out there when i made it cause i needed to block the sun.


So im hoping that by changing to blinds, this will solve the problems. *fingers cross*

Planning to do the zebra blind.

But my windows is very wide. Is it recommended to do one huge blind or separate it into two parts (left and right), won't it have a gap in the middle?
