I was truly amazed when these curtains arrived! The quality is top notch. Color is a true navy and easy to install. I bought the set and placed one panel on each window. I placed a white sheer curtain underneath on a separate tension rod so I can slide the curtain to one side and back again. The back bedroom really gets afternoon sun. I placed them up about 15 minutes ago and can already feel the difference! The hot GA sun was running my power bill up! These curtains should help! Excellent product!

I have 1 room in my home that gets hit directly with the late afternoon sun. It is noticeably hotter than the rest of the home to the extent that we purchased a portable air conditioner for that room when we have guests. I had purchased "room darkening" curtains a while back which helped but not enough. I bought these curtains to fit inside of the windows in addition to the other curtains. Yesterday was the test. I walked into the room at the end of the day, temperature reached 94 degrees outside. I couldn't believe the difference! They worked. The hot box room actually felt like the rest of the home...I could feel no change in temperature like before. I am so thankful, and they were so reasonably priced too!! A win, win!

Absolutely perfect size. I needed a pair of shorter curtains for the summer. They fit perfectly above my air conditioner. The color description is spot on. They arrived exactly as promised. I put them in the dryer with a damp clean hand towel for a minute and The fold creases came right out. The price was very reasonable and they look great. Thank you!

I got the greyish white color in 72"L x 34"W for a kitchen window that's above a baseboard heater. The window hole is 52" wide I believe. The "greyish white" color is nearly white in regular lighting but gets darker when the sun hits it.The bottom hems are higher/shorter on the corners which doesn't really matter for us because they're covered by another curtain. But if I were planning on having only these curtains up I'd return them and try another brand.The curtains are what I would call "room darkening" not blackout. It's fine for our purposes though. A darker color would be way more effective but the dark gray we had looks weird with our other curtains.The outer layers of the fabric are white but there's a black layer inside that makes the fabric look more silvery white. When sun hits the fabric it looks like a warm light gray color because the black layer gets lit up.It's the nature of this type of blackout fabric so it's fine, but the fabric does look a little weird on the seams. The needle holes look huge because the inner layer shows through there. I've had several sets of curtains like this and the black layer only really shows up on lighter colors. So if that bothers you but you need a light color curtain, you might want to get a different type.We have a "pure white" curtain from a seller who has basically the same curtains as these in different sizes. The pure white doesn't have an inner black layer, it's just thick white fabric. You have to pay close attention to notice that the listing doesn't call them "blackout." We used 45"Lx42"W pure white curtains as 3/4" cafe curtains for privacy and to let light in. Then we have the greyish white blackout curtains up on an Eclipse double rod over that, with gray IKEA curtains over those. I think they look great together.If you use a blackout curtain as the under layer on a double rod, you may have no other reasonable choice but to use rings and clips to mount them. The rod pocket probably won't let you open the curtain all the way (they can only bunch up so far), and it takes some force to push them apart anyway. It will be irritating and time consuming to open and close them every day. When pushed to the side the fabric bunches up and presses against the outer rod (and against whatever curtain is bunched up on the outer rod). Grommets have the same issues, they don't fit.Also on our first try we got wider (52") curtains without thinking. If you use two rods, everything is easier when the total width of the blackout curtains is not much wider than the window hole. Our blackout curtains are only a couple inches wider than the width of our curtain rod. Typical curtains are supposed to be two or three times as wide as your window, to look nice and drapey. We wanted the curtains to be nearly flat when opened, because if they are wavy at all then more light can get in over the top. But also with wide ones there's way more fabric that you have to try to shove to the side of the rod when you open them. The idea was just to cover the window hole with a little extra on each side, not to drape at all. When all the curtains are opened these ones are totally hidden by the IKEA curtains on top. The rings make it so easy to fling all the curtains open, and they let you collapse the curtains to be really narrow.So anyway if you think you might need to use rings and clips, be sure to account for the clips in your measurements and place the rod correctly to account for them. Using clips adds a couple inches in height to the curtain, and lowers the top edge of the curtain closer to the window. If the rod is low you might have to move it up to use clips effectively. Also you may need to mount the rod wider to have room to push the open curtains off to the sides of the window if you use the rod pocket method.I put 7 clips on each blackout panel about 5.25" apart and that was enough to keep them pretty flat when closed. Eight clips might be a little better. If the clips are too far apart the top edge flops over between them.I'll post pics of the curtains in bright sun and lightbulb light, and of the difference between the white colors ASAP. The sun went down so I can't now lolHopefully this saves someone some time and money. It was tedious and expensive to figure out. I believe I started this project in 2013.

Used on front door window. Worked fine! Adequate width of the two panels to overlap (for peeking out) without opening the door.Also length was long enough to go beneath the window glass without allowing a “peek through “ area.Very satisfied with color, size and color.

I have these curtains in my Chevy Express based camper van, providing me with a way to keep prying eyes out of the back of my van when I am in a suburban, or urban environment with it. They do work pretty well as blackout curtains when camping, but that is a secondary function for me. The blue gray color goes quite well with the interior of my van, so that's a plus. They are a little long and not being much of a seamstress, I used a stapler and some hot glue to "ahem" the bottom edge.

I really like these curtains. Got rid of the old dirty blinds on the windows and replaced them with these curtains. I love the look of them. They provide great privacy and are very easy to clean. They were easy to install. The length and size I needed are perfect. They are great quality. I would buy these again.

My daughter selected the baby pink color and it is nice! They are working well in her bedroom. I had shears for her window, but it did not provide much privacy. I think she appreciates not having the sun come through so early since she is home from college for the summer.
