Make sure you really want vertical blinds. Vertical blinds came with
our house. DD was only 10 months old and she managed to pull down all
the blind slats. Also the previous owner had installed them wrong so
when we took them down, there were gaping holes in our living room wall.

I bought my vertical blinds from Penney's. They have functioned well
over the years. I have metal, fabric, and vinyl vertical blinds. The
metal are the noisiest followed by the vinyl. The fabric are more
subject to wind when the windows (casement) are open, but they let some
light through when the blinds are closed.

My preference would be to use Graber since they are manufactured
locally, shortening delivery time. But, getting the right appearance is
probably the most important factor.
