PortaBlack Suction Cup Blind

4.0£20-28Blocks ~90% of light

Pros

  • No tools, no drilling, fully removable
  • Great for renters or temporary use
  • Packs flat for travel

Cons

  • Suction cups can loosen on textured or cold glass
  • Less durable long-term

If you're renting somewhere you might move from soon, or you just need something up fast without leaving marks, this is the practical choice. It uses suction cups around a rigid frame edge and comes down in seconds. The trade-off is reliability — on very cold glass or textured windows, the suction can weaken over weeks, so you may need to re-press it occasionally. Also genuinely useful as a travel blackout blind for hotel rooms if you shift-work while travelling.
