The Prime Splash Light Filtering Roller Blind is So Easy Blinds' entry into the everyday-roller market: a woven polyester fabric in a light-filtering weight, available in 24 colours and made to your dimensions from £27.55.
Who it suits
Light-filtering rollers are built for rooms where you want privacy without cutting off daylight. Living rooms and dining rooms are the natural home - you can pull the blind down during the day, retain a diffused glow through the fabric, and still feel connected to the outside. The palette leans heavily towards neutrals, so this range works particularly well when a room already has a colour scheme and you need the blind to hold back rather than lead.
Home offices benefit for a different reason: the fabric softens direct glare from a low winter or late-afternoon sun without making the room feel enclosed. Light-filtering at the window is often more useful than blackout for screen work, because full blackout forces you to use artificial light all day.
Bedrooms are a harder case. Light-filtering does not block the 4am summer sunrise, and it offers little help for shift workers or young children who need genuine darkness. If this is for a bedroom, consider a blackout roller in the same room or a heavier dimout fabric from So Easy Blinds' wider range instead.
The colours
24 colours available
The 24 finishes are almost entirely neutrals and soft mid-tones. The whites and off-whites - Snow, Frost, Paper, Vellum - offer the lightest and most transparent feel. The warm neutrals - Beige, Butter, Oyster, Hessian, Canvas, Havana - sit alongside cooler greys including Grey Whisper, Mineral, Modesty, and Rock. Gable and Taupe bridge the two directions.
A small group introduces some colour: Duck Egg and Placid for a muted blue-green, Glade for a soft green, Indigo for the deepest tone in the range, and Dove and Mono for cleaner whites leaning into grey. Noir and Bullet are the darkest entries, though at a light-filtering opacity even these will transmit a visible amount of light.
No finishes are listed as premium-priced - the from-price applies across the range.

Starting at £27.55, this is a competitive entry-level price for a made-to-measure roller. Pricing rises with width and drop as standard; the grid above shows how that plays out across common UK window sizes.
How it compares
Within the light-filtering roller category, the Splash range competes on palette breadth and consistency of tone. The 24 colours are more varied than many entry-level ranges, which often offer 10-15 options, and the emphasis on neutrals means it coordinates across different room settings without needing a specialist shade.
Where it doesn't compete is on opacity. If your priority is controlling a strong east-facing morning sun or creating a sleeping environment, a dimout or blackout fabric will be more effective. Similarly, for bathrooms or kitchens, a PVC or moisture-resistant roller fabric is a more practical choice than a woven polyester, which is harder to wipe down if it picks up kitchen grease or bathroom condensation.
For living areas and home offices where the goal is softened light and privacy rather than darkness, the Splash sits comfortably in the mainstream of what So Easy Blinds offers.
A note on care
As a woven polyester fabric, the Splash range follows standard roller-blind care practice: vacuum lightly with a brush attachment to remove dust, and spot-clean marks with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid soaking the fabric, which can affect the stiffened backing. If you're fitting this in a kitchen, bear in mind that cooking vapours can deposit grease on the fabric over time - wipe down more frequently in that setting.
