Each to their own really. I'm not a fan as I think they are inauthentic, but then 3mx3m aluminium and glass sliding doors are hardly authentic either, so its where you draw your line. I work with a lad who is referring is house with ONLY items that are hand made in England, including the nails to put the floorboards in.
I'm not sure that style of shutter would have featured anywhere in this country, hence the name plantation, but I'm prob wrong on that.
I quite fancy solid shutters, so I can really bunker down when its time to bug in, our neighbours have them and they look fantastic.
