Hampton is a roller blind fabric carried by two UK retailers - Blinds By Post and Motorised Blinds. The interesting thing here is that the two are not selling the same blind in the same way. Blinds By Post lists the standard, manually-operated version on a side chain, while Motorised Blinds, as the name suggests, builds it with a motor. So the price difference between them is not the usual retailer mark-up; it is largely the cost of the motor and its battery sitting on top of the same cloth.

That makes the choice less about which shop is cheaper and more about how you want to work the blind. If the window is within easy reach and a chain is no hardship, the Blinds By Post version will be the more economical by a clear margin. If the window is high, wide, behind a sofa, or in a child's room where a cord-free blind matters, the motorised version earns its premium - and buying it built in costs less than adding a motor to a manual blind later. The motorised route also opens up remote, timer and app control that the manual one cannot offer.

As with any made-to-measure blind, the from-price for the smallest size tells you little about what you will pay at your own window, because a roller's price climbs with both width and drop. Enter your exact measurements into the pricer below to see the real figure for each, and weigh the motorised premium against how often you will actually reach the window.

We match these on the shared name and a price that scales the same way across window sizes, not an independent inspection, so treat it as likely the same fabric rather than confirmed. Construction, exact colourway and fitting can vary between retailers - check the specification at each before buying.
