StangHRed Velvet Curtains 96 inches - Bedroom Blackout Grommet Curtains Thermal Insulated Noise Absorb Window Dressing for Party/Film Room, 52 x 96 Inches, 2 Panels

These are a made from a good quality and relatively thick fabric which block a good amount of sunlight but if you’re seeking true blackout drapes, you will need to be creative to achieve a completely dark room with these as they are not lined at all. Since the seller indicated these drapes aren’t true blackout within the description, I purchased a blackout reflective panel that adheres to the window with Velcro adhesive strips and prior to hanging the drapes, applied it to the glass.I’ve never liked the texture of blackout drapes as they feel stiff and plasticky so I opted for a solution that allowed for a richer aesthetic. Obviously these drapes remain closed since the glass has been fitted with a heat reflective panel in order to keep out the desert heat here in Las Vegas, where I live.I am extremely happy with these beautiful velvet drapes and love how they hang, feel, look PLUS they deliver exactly what I was hoping for.The color is perfect and I was torn between several options. I took several weeks of looking at different types of fabrics, colors and at every seller on Amazon to finally make my decision. I was originally going to use a linen fabric with blackout panels sewn into the backing but when I came across these I began to rethink it altogether. I could not be more satisfied with my choice to change the fabric to velvet and to go with a color I’d not considered at all. The stone blue is very forgiving as it has a slightly green hue and is a sneaky “color shifting” shade that would fit just about any pallet. The room is predominantly furnished with dark blues and a plush multicolored area rug with a cream/off white background, the carpet’s muted blues, greens and pastel reddish pink touches just look lovely with these rich velvet, flowing drapes.Upon arrival I threw these in the washer, I bought 2 packages so all 4 panels went in on the “bulky”cycle with warm water. Since they’re polyester I expected no shrinkage. I dried them partially, leaving them slightly damp and hung them immediately. This technique works on heavier fabrics to remove most wrinkles as the weight itself aids in removing fold marks. I employed a hand held steamer (if you don’t own one, get one as it’ll change your life) to get out any stubborn wrinkles. I cannot imagine a better result. You don’t need an expensive steamer as they all use the same technology and I use it frequently instead of an iron.One thing I noticed while setting out on this journey of drape buying online, is that the same exact products are sold by many merchants and prices are definitely not consistent. I found myself chasing my tail when looking for that elusive best price. The day after I hung my drapes, a different seller had the same drapes at a 40% lower price. The photos and diagrams are identical from one vendor to the next plus the color charts and names of each color are the same. To say I felt disappointed to find that had I waited a day to save 40% Is an understatement. But I’d hung the drapes and I work alone and it’s a tricky process when hanging heavier fabric. As I’m not an acrobat and will not allow my husband to be involved, as that quickly becomes a liability due to using a “mansplain” translation decoder ring and putting us in the crosshairs of divorce, I quickly realized that forgetting about losing out on saving some money was not all that important.I highly recommend these and if you are considering a divorce, to get that ball rolling, ask your spouse to “assist” which will likely bring out your inner Cujo.Arrived when promised but mediocrely packaged. Mine were fineYes- order them.

These look so much more expensive than they are. Love the color and texture. So heavy and luxurious! Very happy with my curtains and would recommend.

I like the curtains. My mistake was not really paying attention to the fact that the curtains didn't have tabs. They have the silver rings and that is not what I wanted but I really don't feel like the hassle of returning and ordering a different pair. I saw the price and just hit place order. Reading is fundamental.

They came a bit wrinkled but after hanging for a few weeks look great.

And I am so glad she did! Purchased two sets for my daughter's new college apartment and the girls love them! They really do seem way more expensive than they were, so I am going to buy more to add to my home staging inventory for my high market projects.

They look and hang well. The weight is heavy and better than what I expected with the price. They are as close to $400 curtains as you can come. Easy to install.

I was pleased with the curtains. Material is soft yet good quality. They had a weird smell (new fabric off-gasing?) that took some time to air out (even after dry cleaning), but after about 2 weeks, they were normal. They also came out of the package very wrinkly - the dry cleaning took care of that, but be prepared to iron if you don’t dry clean them. I would order again; they look amazing hanging in the room.

I almost hate ordering online because it's basically sight unseen and I have to constantly send things back. I wasn't expecting to love these but they look like they cost more than they did. Absolutely great quality and unless you have issued with your choice of color, you won't regret buying these.

I’ve been trying to get the right colour match for my new bed, and these are absolutely perfect! Beautiful, heavy velvet, softly draping. Looks stunning. Very happy 😃

These have quite a silky sort of gentle velvet feel and are great value if you need curtains for big windows. I haven't washed them yet so not sure of the after-effect of washing and whether they can be rehung without ironing, I just hope so, if they are lightly dried and then rehung. They do block the light pretty well even though my picture doesn't look like it but that is a hot sunny day and they are quite beautiful in a subtle understated way.I like simple at windows, not fussy patterns and these are perfect, just the texture of the sort of velvet is enough. It's not the luxurious velvet but a more synthetic type but it's okay and once they are up they are very pleasing to the eye.

Just what i needed

Love the colour and the quality of these. Fantastic for our little garden pub

Merveilleux rideaux. Attention à la longueur indiquée - Légèrement plus petit...
