Nevada is Unbeatable Blinds' moisture-resistant roller blind range, made to measure across 40 colours and starting from £40.00. The fabric winds onto a single tube and pulls down flat against the window, and the cloth is treated to resist moisture - a combination that keeps the range simple to use and suited to damper rooms as well as dry ones.
Who it suits
Roller blinds are the most straightforward made-to-measure blind: one flat panel of fabric, raised and lowered on a single tube, sitting close to the glass. That simplicity suits almost any room, and the moisture-resistant treatment on the Nevada range extends it comfortably to kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms where humidity and the odd splash would be hard on an untreated fabric. With 40 colours spanning quiet neutrals and stronger brights, the range covers both a low-key everyday window and one where colour is meant to stand out.
The Nevada fabrics are listed at standard opacity, so they filter and soften daylight and give privacy without fully darkening a room. For a bedroom where you want to block light, a blackout-rated roller would be the better fit; for living rooms, kitchens and bathrooms where softening glare and keeping privacy is the aim, standard opacity does the job well. The single-tube mechanism also keeps the blind compact and undemanding to operate, which is useful above a sink or worktop where you want to raise and lower it one-handed and out of the way.
The colours
40 colours available
This is the broadest of the moisture-resistant ranges by colour, and the palette is genuinely varied. Neutrals are well covered - creams, greys, white, plus Stone, Linen, Sand and Ivory - while blues, greens, purples, reds, yellows and pinks give a real spread of brighter options, from Aqua, Cobalt Blue and Turquoise through Emerald and Lime Green to Berry, Cherry and Bright Yellow. That range means an accent colour is available without leaving the range, alongside the quieter tones for rooms that want to stay calm. Screen colour and the same fabric filling a window can differ, so order a sample before committing to a full-sized blind, especially for the stronger brights.

The figures above are calculated from your exact width and drop. Roller blinds are generally among the more economical made-to-measure blind types, and the moisture-resistant fabrics across the Nevada range share the same specification, so the price is driven by size rather than by which colour you pick. The quieter neutrals and the brighter accent shades carry the same fabric and finish, so picking a bold colour over a plain one is a matter of look rather than budget.
How it compares
Against a vertical blind, a Nevada roller gives a cleaner, flatter finish on standard windows and leaks less light around a closed blind, though a vertical handles very wide glass and patio doors more comfortably. Against a venetian, the roller is quicker to clean - one flat face rather than many slats - but gives up the slat tilt that lets a venetian angle light without raising. The moisture-resistant fabric is the main reason to pick this range over a plain roller cloth for a kitchen or bathroom.
A note on care
Moisture-resistant roller fabric is among the easiest blind types to keep clean: dust it with a soft cloth or a vacuum brush attachment, and wipe marks with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent, then let it dry fully before rolling it back up. Avoid abrasive cloths and harsh cleaners that could disturb the moisture-resistant finish, and roll the blind down flat to clean the whole face evenly.
