Other Considerations
While cellular shades are a great option for window coverings, they may not be the perfect option for everyone or for every room. A few things to consider:
- Cellular shades do not have tilting slats to allow for light adjustment, which limits the flexibility of available light control.
- Honeycomb shades can absorb moisture and odors, so they aren’t recommended for areas such as a kitchen or bathroom. They can still be a viable choice but consider where they will be installed and ensure there is sufficient distance from showers, sinks, and stoves.
