The drapes are well made and block the cold air. I got them to keep cold air from coming down the stairs from an unused spare room that is not able to have a door. So I'm sure they would work well keeping out drafts from windows.

These drapes keep out the sun that comes in through the windows.  They make my bedroom give me the feeling of walking into a quiet theater before the start of a movie.  It is a wonderful dark quiet place just right for sleeping.

Very decorative cover for my window.  And I have to open them up to see if it is light or dark outside.  They also help keep a lot of the winter cold out since I don't have winter pane windows.

Nicetown thermal curtians are extremely well made. They are the same color on the front and the back so they look great from the outside of the house as well as the inside. (My old thermal drapes--Not this brand-- had a white, rubbery coating for insulatation).  The curtians have make a huge differance in keeping me warm--I'm no longer cold if I am close to my patio doors. I'm also able to watch movies during the day because it blocks the light that comes in through the patio window. I'm extremely please with my purchase of my Newtown Thermal Curtians and will order them again if I ever need more curtians.

Bought these to match same purchase on another site that was sold out.  These are very stylish and do a pretty good job in winter months of keeping the north facing cold between the door and the curtains.

These curtains do an amazing job at keeping out the light. They also keep the cool air in and the hot air out during the summer and keep the cool air out of my room during the winter. I would definitely buy these again.

These drapes are great, look good, wrinkles fell out in a few days, completely block the sun, and I can tell they are insulating the windows. We are in a new house, so I won't be able to compare the effectiveness dollar wise on my utilities, but I like them.

I really like these drapes. The fabric is 100% cotton and they are well made. I ordered the wheat color. As soon as I ironed and hung the drapes, I ordered another set.

The Good:  These curtains are in four rooms in my house.  They are unmatched for room darkening and keep out an incredible amount of light.  Depending on the curtain rod, you may find light seeping in around the edges, but if you install them correctly, they will work well.  Not only do they block all light, they also act as a shield against heat and cold, essentially doubling as insulation.  They are very well made, with nice metal grommets, and they pass the style test as well.

The Bad:  The packaging makes them from out wrinkled.  Even when you hang them, you can see the folds pressed into the fabric.  The best method for dealing with this is a hand held steamer which will melt the folds out of the fabric.

I have purchased numerous pairs of these curtains and given them to my children.  The fabric drapes well, helps to keep out the cold, and provides more darkness than normal curtains.

We ordered these curtains in a custom size, received our order earlier than expected, and were very pleased. These are a lovely print, the fabric is good quality, and the stitching is perfect. The background is the palest cream and the other colors are true to the illustrations. They do a good job of blocking much of the light without darkening the room too much. They really shield out the heat on our hot southern windows, and also keep the heat in on cold winter nights. Only gave one less star because the back panel is a brown color, which tends to slightly darken the fabric and is less preferred than white. Otherwise, they're perfect and we would definitely order from this company again.

I bought these covers because my expensive automatic temperature controlled vents never worked properly. These covers were easy to install but were just a little bit bigger than the standard 8X16 foundation vent opening. I took a tin shears and easily trimmed it down to fit my opening. The covers stayed in place and did a great job keeping the cold out during a very harsh winter. These covers come two in a pack and are very reasonably priced. I had peace of mind not worrying about the faulty automatic temperture vents not working. I highly recommend these covers that do what they are supposed to do to keep the cold outside.

These are great, thick and seem to keep some of the cold air at bay. I love the circular top and the metal circles that go around them, a much better design than some other window curtains I've bought. I threw these in the dryer with a damp wash cloth like the directions said and they came out unwrinkled.

We love these beautiful silky curtains! They keep out cold and heat very well. They dim the room nicely too as shown in the pics.

Excellent curtains for the nook area. keeps the heat in and cold out. the curtains are thick enough to block out passer-by and peepers. The fabric is nice and all they need was a quick steam press to knock out the wrinkles from the packaging. Makes the home feel cozy

These drapes arrived quickly and in good condition.  I easily ironed the wrinkles out and hung them up.  The drapes are true to the burgundy color shown, the fabric is heavy yet soft and elegant.  They are not lined and the color can be seen from outside but that does not matter to me.  They definitely are black out drapes and I anticipate that they will lower my heating costs which is why I bought them.

Man, these curtains not only keep out unwanted sunshine, but also chilly air. But they are not heavy.
