EXCELLENT VALUE
I bought these in the olive color (for my son’s woodland themed nursery) and chocolate color (for our living room) and am very, very, very pleased.Allow me to address some of the negatives people have mentioned:1) all of the curtains I ordered were the correct, even length (I purchased all of them at 52x95 and they were all exact);2) yes, washing alone won’t release the wrinkles. I YouTubed “getting wrinkles out of polyester,” followed the process and they’re fine now;3) if you want a total blackout, then you’ll need a combination of products or different curtains, but, having said that, I get migraines and have light sensitivity and these are great. I get full sun in these rooms and now they are dark. Pitch black? No. But solidly dark.4) I do think there might be slight thermal reduction in full sun;5) no noise reduction, alas.Here’s the thing: for what you’re paying, they’re amazing. All the complaints I’m seeing make me laugh. Do people know what true blackout curtains cost? They start at ~$100 per panel! As in, each.You just got two for $37. What more do you want?They’re soft. They work. They’re even. The colors are lovely. Mine are floor to ceiling and they look clean and sleek.Maybe I got lucky. Maybe not. Either way, decidedly chuffed.

Beautiful and Functional Curtains
As they said, the lighter colored curtains do not block as much light as the darker ones. So if you want a pitch black room I wouldn't buy the grey-white color. But they're perfect for my needs, and I love the way the color stands off of a white wall. I originally wanted all white curtains, but I'm glad I went with these. The back of the curtains don't have a lining, so they are the same color as the front, which I like. In my pictures you can see direct sunlight hitting my curtains. In the second picture I tucked the curtain into the window sill to keep the light from bleeding through. I have these curtains in the living room to keep the sun from glaring on my tv during the day and they work perfectly for this. ( On the fourth picture, you can still see on the screen where the direct sunlight was shining, but it really isn't all that noticeable when watching tv ) So if your window gets direct sunlight most of the day, I would buy a darker color. I needed 4 panels to fit my 95" in width window.

Actually reduces noise.
We recently moved into a new home, which is about a mile or two from a major interstate. We didn't really realize how noisy it was until night time when all the trucks are going down it. There is just an open field between us and the highway. I was skeptical when I purchased these curtains that they would actually block very much sound. I know layering up bath towels can block almost all the sound, but its also really ugly.These curtains reduced the interstate noise to just a low hum. I was actually able to get some sleep last night.They also do a decent job of blocking out the light in combination with my existing blinds. They do look pretty decent, the color was accurate to the picture.

Beware: Crooked Hems
I’m very disappointed with these curtains. The grommets are a shiny plastic feeling chrome. And all the curtains are crooked. One side of a curtain might measure 45 1/2” and the opposite side will measure 47”. They look terrible hanging up. The hems are not straight, they actually curve up on some panels. And they don’t lay right either, they flare out. It’s a shame because I like the look and feel of the material. And I love how much light they block. I’m going to have to return these. Will try to post pictures when I get a chance.

Helps with inefficient A/C!
My parents do not like to run the A/C in the summer whatsoever. The days they DO run it, it is not as efficient at keeping the house cool. The sun faces their room and the living room during the hottest part of the day. Because of this, their room makes the rest of the house hotter. I decided to buy this for them because last year I suggested they use a dark blanket to block the sun out. They did the entire summer, but this year they haven't been.Their room also faces a toll road, so I can also comment on this, as we do not have sound-proof windows.Right off the bat, my dad loves these curtains. he is the most apt to use these in order to nap during the day as he sometimes has nighttime work shifts and sleeps in the day. During the brightest time in the day, the sun is probably blocked 95% with these curtains, while 4% makes it out the sides, and up and down, and the last 1% coming out through the fabric.My parents do not have blinds to help whatsoever. Because I bought them the chocolate color to match their room, instead of the black, I think their is more room for light to come through. Black absorbs color the best, so if you are really sensitive to light and don't care about looks, do the black. If you aren't picky, the brown is functional if you are trying to match a room.For the heat, I would say just cutting out the light has made the upper part of our house much cooler. I don't think you could cut away light without cutting away heat as well. Since it is not made of double layers or special material, I don't think the fabric itself dispels heat in the way some might hope.Does it cut away heat? Yes. Will it act as insulation? NO.As for sound, I mentioned that we live up against a toll road. This claims to deflect a lot of noise, but I think it is much like the heat situation, where simply because you have this against your window, it muffles the sound a little. I went into my parents room and, with the window open, could still hear the cars speeding by. Had I shut the window, I'm sure that the noise would have disappeared.Since we have lived in our house for over twenty years, the noise from the cars is almost like white noise for my parents. They are so used to it that the blinds don't really matter. I didn't buy this to block out sound, but it does help a little.I bought this to block out light and *help* with the heat. I did not purchase this for sound-proofing, but I got a little bit of that. Would I say this product has lived up to what it was supposed to do? Yes. My parents don't have to worry that their room will be a sauna when they don't run the A/C and if they do it will work more effectively because the curtains are there.

See for yourself!
These are 100% NOT "blackout" curtains. I purchased two sets for each of my windows in the light grey, and because I didn't have time to fuss around and send them back, I had to purchase two more sets. This kind of darkens the room a bit, but I would never have purchased them in the beginning had I known I'd have to purchase more.

Best curtains
I love these curtains. It's really hard to find curtains that are 45" in length and still look nice. The pictures I have added were all taken on the same day to show how much light is being blocked. The picture with the curtains fully closed are a little deceiving because t shows that light still gets in around the top and bottom, but I can assure you, the entire room looks fully dark. I wouldn't want the curtains to block out any more light than this, to be honest.Thanks to these curtains, I only wake up because my alarm goes off or I've already had enough sleep. I also bought the dark brown, greyish white, beige and dark grey. I've put the dark brown curtains in our guest room and it looks even darker in there than this room. If you want to block out more light, I suggest going with black or another dark colour.Turquoise colour looks amazing against my white walls and all the colours look true to the product images.

Definitely a steal for the price.
I bought a pink shade, and they look so lovely that I decided to buy the turquoise as well. They block light decently, and are a steal for the price.My favorite feature is the grommets, opening and closing them is so easy, which is exactly what I wanted. And the colors with the fabric they used are vibrant and warm and soft looking.My least favorite thing was a small pick on the edge of the back of the curtain. Wasn't a big deal, and didn't bother me a whole lot- as I ended up buying more.

Worth the price! 💙
It's worth the price.As soon as I got my package i put the curtains on right away & it made my room much darker then before. Sleeping is so much better no sun peeks through, especially now its summer the curtains make my room much cooler with the AC on.The material is so soft and silky!Overall, i highly recommend these curtains to anyone!
