Electric Splash is a made-to-measure roller blind range sold by Swift Direct Blinds, spanning 78 colour options from muted greys and naturals through to deeper blues and a purple. The from-price of £38.61 places it in the accessible mid-range of the roller market, and the width of the palette - covering neutral, warm, cool, and accent tones - gives it reasonable versatility across different rooms and interior styles.
Who it suits
Because the opacity class is not stated by the retailer for this range, you should confirm with Swift Direct Blinds whether specific colours are light-filtering, dimout, or blackout before ordering. That information will shape which rooms the blind is suited to, and it is worth asking before you commit to a made-to-measure size.
For living rooms and home offices, a light-filtering or dimout specification works well: you get privacy and some daytime glare reduction without blocking natural light entirely. The neutral end of the Electric Splash palette - Dove Grey, Oyster, Pearl, Almond, Natural Hessian - fits naturally into a sitting room or study without drawing attention to itself. For home office use in particular, light-coloured fabrics help diffuse glare on screens without making the room feel shut off.
For bedrooms where light exclusion matters, confirm the opacity rating first. If the fabric is light-filtering rather than blackout, it will not perform in an east-facing bedroom at dawn; you would need a heavier fabric or a separate blackout lining. UK summer mornings arrive early, and a fabric that looks adequately opaque in an overcast October will let in considerably more light in June. Kitchens suit roller blinds well in general - wipe-down care, easy operation - and the greys and neutrals in this range are practical choices there, though for a kitchen prone to condensation or steam, confirm whether the fabric is suitable for damp environments.
The colours
78 colours available
The sixteen colours divide loosely into three groups. The neutrals and near-whites (Ivory Off-white, Pearl, Oyster, Almond, Natural Hessian) are the most versatile and the most likely to be specified in multiples across a property. The grey family is well-represented with five distinct options: Grey, Dove Grey, Grey Whisper, Pewter Grey, and Silver Mist - enough differentiation to match a range of interiors without needing to pick between near-identical shades. The accent group (Classic Blue, Indigo Blue, Sloe Purple, Mocha Brown, Taupe Brown, Black) covers the bolder end of the palette.
No variants carry a premium uplift, so all sixteen colours start from the same from-price.

A from-price of £38.61 is towards the lower end of the made-to-measure roller market. As dimensions increase, the price will rise - the widget above gives you indicative pricing for your specific width and drop. For standard-sized windows in living areas or kitchens, this range represents reasonable value assuming the fabric weight and opacity meet your requirements.
How it compares
At this price point, you are unlikely to be looking at heavier commercial-grade fabrics or specialist coatings. Electric Splash is a general-purpose made-to-measure roller - it covers the most common colour preferences and the most common installation scenarios, without a defined technical speciality.
If you need guaranteed blackout for a bedroom, a range specifically marketed for that purpose and confirmed as opaque would be more reliable; the opacity of Electric Splash is not stated, so you cannot be certain how it will perform against a bright morning sky. If you are furnishing a bathroom, a PVC or moisture-resistant fabric would be more appropriate than an unspecified polyester. Where Electric Splash earns its place is in dry, non-critical rooms where the colour choice matters more than a particular technical specification, and where the from-price is relevant to the decision.
