The Click2go 50mm Slat venetian is Blinds 2go's faux wood blind in a wide-slat format, available in 12 finishes and starting from £28.04. The 50mm slat width gives it a bolder, more architectural look than the standard 25mm aluminium venetians and positions it clearly as a decorative living-room or kitchen choice rather than a purely utilitarian one.
Who it suits
The faux wood construction makes this a practical choice for kitchens and bathrooms where real wood would warp or discolour over time. The material is moisture-tolerant and wipe-clean - both important in rooms where condensation and grease are regular hazards.
Wide-slat venetians work particularly well in living rooms and dining areas where you want the adjustable light control of a venetian but the visual weight of a real wood product. The 50mm slat sits in a popular middle ground: wider than the slimmer aluminium options you'll see in utility rooms, but less unwieldy than a 63mm slat on smaller windows.
For bedrooms, bear in mind that no venetian blind is truly blackout: even with slats fully closed, small amounts of light pass through the ladder cord gaps and around the edges. If you need full darkness for sleep, a blackout roller with side channels is more reliable. The Click2go works best where adjustable light filtering - rather than complete darkness - is the priority.
The finishes
12 colours available
The palette is deliberately neutral. Parchment and Eggshell sit in the warm beige range, Chestnut introduces a warmer brown tone, and the three white variants - Pristine White, Ice White, and Alto White - offer slight variations on a clean, cool white. There is nothing vivid here; every finish is chosen to work alongside a painted wall rather than compete with it.
The distinction between the three whites is subtle enough that most rooms will come down to which white matches your window frame or wall colour most closely. If you are unsure, Blinds 2go typically allows sample requests, so it is worth ordering a sample before committing.

Prices rise with width and drop as expected for a made-to-measure product; the widget above will show your specific dimensions. The range sits comfortably in the entry-to-mid segment for faux wood venetians.
How it compares
Within the venetian category, the main decision is between aluminium, faux wood, and real wood slats. Aluminium venetians at 25mm are lighter, cheaper, and practical for offices and smaller windows - but they lack the visual warmth of a wood-look slat. Real wood venetians offer a premium look and feel, though they need to stay out of humid rooms and tend to cost significantly more. Faux wood - as here - occupies a useful middle ground: it looks closer to real wood than aluminium without the humidity limitation or price premium of genuine timber.
The 50mm slat width is the defining characteristic of this range. If your windows are small or you prefer a more delicate look, a 25mm venetian may suit better. For large bay windows or room-width expanses of glass, the wider slat holds its own visually. Those who need a no-drill installation on a UPVC window should check whether a Perfect Fit frame is available for this range, as that would significantly affect the measuring and fitting approach.
A note on care
Faux wood slats clean easily with a damp cloth and mild detergent - the same approach works for both routine dust and kitchen grease. Unlike real wood slats, there is no risk of warping or discolouration from a damp wipe. For routine maintenance, a dry duster or vacuum brush along each slat is usually sufficient between deeper cleans.
