Polaris from So Easy Blinds is a large, coherent roller range offered in both blackout and light-filtering fabrics, with 161 options from £34.57. The same colour palette runs across both fabric types, so you can pick a shade and then choose whether you want it to block light or filter it - room by room, in a consistent look. It is a range built for fitting out a whole home in one family of colours.
Who it suits
Anywhere you want a coherent roller across several rooms. The blackout fabrics suit bedrooms and nurseries where darkness matters; the light-filtering versions suit living rooms, kitchens and studies where you want privacy and softened daylight rather than a dark room. Because the colours match across both, a house fitted in Polaris keeps a consistent look while each blind does the right job for its room - the blackout in the bedroom and the light-filtering in the lounge can be the same shade.
The palette is broad enough to match most schemes, with the blackout colourways carrying a premium over the light-filtering ones. So Easy Blinds positions Polaris a step above the budget rollers, so it sits at a higher entry price than basic plain ranges - you are paying for the choice of fabric behaviour and the consistent palette.
As a roller, there is no slat-angle control, and for a wet room you would want to confirm the specific fabric's suitability.
The colours
161 colours available
The palette is extensive and runs the full neutral range - Black, Midnight, Graphite, Oyster and many more - each typically available as both a blackout and a light-filtering fabric, with the blackout versions priced higher. The neutrals dominate, which fits the range's role as a coherent whole-home option, with some softer and brighter accents among them. When choosing, the key decision is fabric behaviour first (blackout or light-filtering for the room), then the shade.
Price by your dimensions
Made to measure from £34.57. Check So Easy Blinds for the price at your exact window size.
At £34.57 to start, Polaris is priced above the budget plain rollers, reflecting its dual-fabric choice and broad coordinated palette. Blackout colourways cost more than light-filtering ones. Enter your width and drop for the price at your size; it rounds up to the next standard size as So Easy Blinds quotes it.
How it compares
Against a single-purpose budget roller (such as 247's Roma or Trapani), Polaris costs more but offers the blackout-or-light-filtering choice in a matched palette - worth it when you are fitting several rooms and want consistency, less necessary for a single window where a cheaper plain will do.
Against a day-and-night blind, Polaris gives you a committed fabric (fully blackout or fully filtering) rather than an adjustable one. If you want a room to go properly dark, a Polaris blackout does that where a day-and-night only filters; if you want adjustable daytime light, the day-and-night is the better tool.
