The Sevilla vertical from Blinds 2go is a broad-palette vertical blind, with 26 colourways from £9.40, including a number of blackout fabrics. Vertical blinds hang fabric vanes from a top track; they rotate to control light and slide aside to open, which makes them the practical answer for windows wider than they are tall. Sevilla pairs that format with a colour range wide enough to suit most rooms.
Who it suits
Patio doors, bay windows and wide openings - the situations where a single roller would be unwieldy and a vertical comes into its own. The vanes rotate to admit light at an angle or close for privacy, and draw aside to clear a doorway, which suits glazed doors you walk through.
The blackout colourways in the range (River Rock, Ink, Tranquility Twilight Blue, Grey, Slate, Brilliant White) extend its use to wide bedroom windows where darkness matters - useful, since a wide bedroom window is otherwise awkward to black out. The standard colourways suit living rooms, dining rooms and offices.
As with any vertical, the look carries a faintly commercial association and the vanes can sway in a draught unless weighted - most include bottom weights and a linking chain. In a soft traditional room a curtain or roman may suit better; in a contemporary or practical space the vertical looks at home.
The colours
26 colours available
The palette is genuinely wide: brights (Candyfloss, Shiraz, Kingfisher, Buttercup), a strong set of neutrals and greys (Moonstone, Anchor Grey, Touchstone Grey, Vanilla), and the blackout options noted above. Check whether a colourway is the standard or blackout fabric, as that decides its suitability for a bedroom. The neutrals are the safe choice for a window that should stay quiet; the brights are there for a room that wants colour across a wide span.
Price by your dimensions
Made to measure from £9.40. Check Blinds 2go for the price at your exact window size.
At £9.40 to start, Sevilla is keenly priced for a vertical. As always with made-to-measure, a wide patio door will sit well above the entry figure. Enter your width and drop for the price at your size; it rounds up to the next standard size as Blinds 2go quotes it.
How it compares
Against a roller or roman on a wide window, the vertical is simply the better-suited format - it spans the opening cleanly and slides aside for door access. On a standard-proportioned window, a roller or venetian usually looks neater.
Against 247's Trinity vertical, Sevilla offers a broader and brighter palette while Trinity leans more heavily on blackout and fire-retardant fabrics. If your priority is a specific colour, Sevilla has the wider choice; if it is FR compliance or maximum darkness, compare the two on fabric spec.
