These are NOT blackout curtains!
I cannot believe the amazing reviews these curtains have...I literally could have hung a bed sheet over my curtain rod and had better “black out curtains”. My blinds are completely closed and still tons of sun getting in. There’s no insulation, no energy efficient backing, they’re a wrinkled mess and they smell weird to boot. These were false advertising in my opinion. I bought 5 of them and will be returning them all.

Exceeds expectations
I was reluctant at first to purchase these as I wanted cotton curtains. However, these have not produced any smell whatsoever which makes me a little more confident in my purchase even with them being polyester. The first photo shows how effective it is at blocking light. This was a requirement by my husband. The second photo shows how lovely the drapes hang, almost like pinch please curtains. I do have to pull them that way to align properly, but it's not a lot of work. The third photo shows how nice the stitching is and that the backing is the same color as the front. The final photo is of the back tabs of the curtains for reference in how they hang on the rods.In regards to the company: I had to contact them with an issue on one of the pairs of curtains I purchased. I sent a message at night and heard back the next morning. They immediately rectified the issue without any run around--which says a lot for companies in this day of age!

These curtains do not actually block the majority of light
These feel nice, are put together well, and are the dimensions described. They are NOT blackout curtains. Look at the lower star reviews for this product which contain pictures and you will see many pictures showing light shining through the curtains. I suspect the pictures which do not show this were taken at night or in overcast /indirect light conditions. Note how many 4 and above star reviews also have pictures clearly showing tons of light penetrating the fabric, but are left by reviewers who are rating this product based on everything but its ability to blackout. I'm a student and work random hours in a hospital and sleep at various times of the day, I need actual blackout curtains. "Blackout"-ing ability is the reason I bought these. I believe a rational person would expect the curtains to function as described by the second word of the product title. This product would have been great (greyish white is actually really nice) if they did what they claimed to do in the title: blackout. They do not do what they claim to do. Will Return them.

Great light blocking
I got these for my baby's room since she kept waking up at 7 or earlier due to light in her room (she has a West-facing window). I went with a dark color to maximize light blocking but I don't think it was necessary for our room. Light beige probably would have been fine since we aren't fighting super bright light all day.The curtains look really nice. They have a sort of sheen to the fabric that makes it seem nicer. Unfortunately, there's already dog hair on them... Not sure why. HahaThese feel nice and heavy, much heavier than the curtains I just took down. I am VERY satisfied with the light blocking. I would definitely buy these again. Oh, and I don't need bushy curtains so I just bought one pack (with two panels) and it covers my 74" window sufficiently.I took a before (old curtain) and after (blackout curtain) picture. It was early evening and the blinds were open.Update: the first night with the new curtains and my 2.5 month old just slept through the night for the first time. I can't say for sure it was the curtains, but I'm sure they didn't hurt.

Wonderful Quality
I agree with the reviews that the bottom of these curtains are not perfectly level-but pretty close. I have furniture in front of the bottoms so it is not big deal. We had blinds up but got these for a room that we turned into our living room. It was previously too bright to have the television in there so I got these, moved the rooms around and it is perfect for our living room/movie watching experience.The quality is wonderful--better than expected--and stands up to our three dogs pawing at the curtains on the sliding glass door to go outside. We can tell a difference in maintaining temperature control as well. While I can see the picky people saying they aren't completely blackout panels, they really do block out 99.9% of light.After we saw how well these held up and how nice they were we bought some for our bedroom as well and now our dogs sleep until we wake up on the weekends and they are not up at first light...bonus!

Not blackout
Definitely not blackout. Let a lot of light in and pretty much useless if that’s why you’re planning on getting them

Not black out.
The material is nice I like the quality. Definitely not black out curtains. I would expect 0 light to show through on curtains. First reason for 3 stars. Second reason is that these are very poorly sewed. They are very un even and have a swoop on the bottom hard to explain. I bought 4 sets of these all different colours. All are sewed exactly the same. I have been fighting with one panel and and iron for over two hours to even get it to look half decent.

Buen producto.
0 transparencia en color gray.NO es blackout pero el grosor y color hacen su trabajo.Se lavo al recibir se, no se desmancho, decoloró, ni sufrió imperfecciones.La tela es algo gruesa por lo que, quitar le las arrugas es complicado.Los olanes, o curvas al usar lo en backtap no es como lo pintan en la publicación.2 paneles con mucha ventaja contra las cortinas de anillos/aros, mi ventana es de 2.9mts con laterales, con este par cubre bien completamente estirado.Lo único que no he probado es si se va a decolorar o podría la tela, cuando empieze el calor o después de un tiempo.Por eso no le doy 5 estrellas.

Impressive Curtains - very pleased
These curtains are definitely quality. Soft but yet thick. Clean hands only on these as the White is a perfect true white, not a blue white, not a dirty white, not a snow white, not a winter white, simply the perfectly clean white. Matches the white trim paint in our home to perfection. Also, they hang perfectly on the hoops on the back of the curtains. (Love that there are 3 options for hanging). We hung these curtains on the "Umbra Twilight Double Black Out Curtain Rod" (from Amazon.ca) which we love too, such an easy rod to hang and put together. In all honesty, I believe you could hang these in any room in your home and they would look lovely. Be careful if you have rough hands they will pick very easy.I ironed on the back first, once I was sure I had the temperature not to high then I ironed the fronts. I did NOT use steam. They ironed beautifully with ease. These are certainly worth the money.PLEASE NOTE: The "Care Instructions" did not come with the curtains so be sure to take a copy from this ad.Hope to update ad tomorrow with a pic.

Color was off but still like these
I bought these in a purple shade (or so I thought, based on the option I chose) for my daughter's purple-walled bedroom. The ones we received were 100% pink, but we stuck with them anyway. I like the multiple ways to hang them on the curtain rod: rod pocket or tabs. They definitely don't block out much light, but they sufficiently darken the room when paired with a shade over the window.

Excellent curtains. Easy to wash and install.
We purchased these curtains for our daughter's room as her old curtains were not big enough to cover the width of the window. Washing these curtains was easy, I just threw them in the washer and hung them to dry. Installation was easy, I just had to remove the old curtains and string these ones in its place. Due to rod pocket/back tab, the curtains occasionally get caught on the curtain rod. Although that may be a product of the curtain rod being a little rough where the two rods are inserted together.The product title specifies kitchen, but we've had no problems using these in our daughter's bedroom. The curtains in the middle of the day block out a lot of light which is great for our daughter's naps. It gets so dark in her room, the Nest Indoor Cam (that we use as a baby monitor) switches to night vision when the curtains are drawn together.Considering the price of these curtains, you get exceptional value for what you pay.(The curtains looked flared out in the picture, but our curtain rod is actually installed short thanks to the previous owner of our house. I never got around to fixing it as it's not important.)
