2" faux wood blinds: price vs quality vs Home Depot, Lowe’s, Blinds.com, and Levolor
White, 2-inch, cordless — the size shoppers actually compare. Big-box stock blinds cost less. Home Builder Blinds is cut to the size you enter, ships free, and the Builder line uses a 2" × 2¼" steel head rail. Online custom Levolor is the expensive end even on sale.

Summary verdict
White, 2" cordless only. We do not guess at unpublished prices or headrail materials.
- Big-box stock wins on sticker price. Home Depot Home Decorators Collection and Lowe’s allen + roth were the cheapest 35 × 64 blinds we checked ($45.98 and $44.98). Those units are about ½" narrower than the labeled width.
- Home Builder Blinds Low Profile uses a harder plastic resin headrail. Home Depot and Lowe’s use vinyl, which sags over time. The resin does not. Low Profile has no 64" length. The closest stock to a 35 × 64 store blind is 35 × 60 at $53.82. Builder steps up to a 2" × 2¼" steel head rail and still undercut Blinds.com Levolor Classic on a 45% sale at 35 × 64 ($81.64 vs $85.88).
- Levolor.com Classic Value was the high price even at 25% off ($191.02 at 35 × 64; $254.70 list). Classic Value uses a PVC headrail with steel reinforcement over 60" — not the painted-steel custom NuWood headrail.
- Home Depot’s Levolor BASICS 2" cordless is Pro-account-only (no public price on the PDP). Lowe’s Basics 59 × 64 was not offered. Levolor Basics headrail material is not disclosed by the manufacturer.
- Dallas–Fort Worth install at Home Builder Blinds is $25/window ($50 metal substrate). The minimum is $75 for seniors and $150 for everyone else. Measure is free. Home Depot and Lowe’s search snippets listed $25/blind, $75 minimum, and a $45 measure fee.
Home Builder Blinds 2" cordless — Builder steel head rail; Low Profile harder resin
Low Profile vs store stock
Harder plastic resin headrail. Home Depot and Lowe’s use vinyl, and that vinyl sags over time. This resin does not.
There is no 64" length, so each row is a size we sell next to the closest Home Depot and Lowe’s size. Home Depot is Home Decorators Collection. Lowe’s is allen + roth. Those store blinds are about ½" narrower than the labeled width.
