Chloe is Unbeatable Blinds' moisture-resistant vertical blind range, made to measure across 27 colours and starting from £6.00. The slats hang vertically, tilt to control light and draw to one side to clear the glass, and the fabric is treated to be moisture resistant - a combination that makes the range a practical fit for larger windows and damper rooms alike.
Who it suits
Vertical blinds suit wide windows and patio or sliding doors better than most other blind types. The slats rotate together to angle daylight, and pull right back to the side when you want the full opening clear, so they handle the kind of glass where a single roller or roman would be unwieldy. The moisture-resistant fabric extends that to kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms, where humidity and the occasional splash would shorten the life of an untreated cloth.
The honest limitation of any vertical is that the gaps between the slats let some light through even when closed, and the slats can sway in a draught from an open window or door. For full room darkening in a bedroom a vertical is not the right tool; a roller or pleated blind in a blackout fabric would do that job better. The Chloe range is listed at standard opacity, so it filters and softens light rather than blocking it. The trade-off in return is flexibility: the slats can be angled to admit daylight while keeping the line of sight broken for privacy, and pulled fully aside when you want the glass clear.
The colours
27 colours available
The palette is mostly calm and neutral. Greys lead the range, with creams close behind, supported by blues, greens and a scattering of pink, red, yellow, plus black and white. Named shades run from soft, liveable tones such as Dove, Oyster, Beige and Stone Grey through to deeper choices like Charcoal Grey and Slate Grey, with a few brighter accents - Royal Blue, Scarlet, Ruby Red - for rooms that want a stronger note. The neutral spread is wide enough to match most existing schemes without resorting to an approximation. As ever, request a sample before ordering a full set: a slat colour on screen and the same colour repeated across a wide run of slats in your own light can differ noticeably.

The figures above work from your exact width and drop. Verticals are among the more economical made-to-measure blinds, especially over wide spans where the price per square metre tends to stay low, and the Chloe range starts at an accessible entry point. Colour choice within the range does not change the basic specification, so the cost is driven by size rather than shade. That makes a vertical a sensible way to dress a large or awkward window without the cost climbing the way it can with a single oversized blind in another style.
How it compares
Against a roller blind, a Chloe vertical covers wide glass far more comfortably and clears the opening completely when drawn back, but it gives a more functional, office-adjacent look and leaks a little more light at the slat gaps. Against a horizontal venetian, the vertical handles tall and wide windows better and is less of a dust trap, while the venetian gives finer tilt control on smaller windows. The moisture-resistant treatment here is the main reason to pick it over a plain vertical fabric for a kitchen or bathroom.
A note on care
Moisture-resistant vertical slats are straightforward to keep clean: dust them with a soft cloth or a vacuum brush attachment, and wipe marks with a damp cloth and mild detergent, drying gently afterwards. Rotate the slats to the flat, open position before cleaning so you can reach the full face of each one, and avoid harsh scrubbing that could disturb the moisture-resistant finish.
