We are going to have a 2nd viewing on a hosue this week. If we buy it, I would like to put horizontal blinds up but have no idea about blinds - what are nice ones? Any tips? Are they a nightmare to clean? Thanks

I have got vertical and am thinking of changing to horizontal. I know they will be a nightmare to keep clean. But I still want them. The verticals are too 'officy'. Just cant decide whether to have white or wood ones. I would like ones where you can close the ones on the bottom half whilst still keeping the top ones open IYSWIM.
