BUY THESE!  Faux Suede Grommet Top Insulated/Blackout Curtain Pair
344635
A year ago, we purchased 6 pairs of these curtains in chocolate for the living area and the porch as well as 1 pair in olive and 1 pair in camel for the bedrooms in our cabin. The colors are spot on and they have a super suede feel.  The bronze grommets are a consistent color.  The chocolate are awesome at blocking out the light! The camel does "ok" as a light blocker-the light streams through them making them "glow" where the light hits.  We hung them straight out of the packaging and with time now, the wrinkles have disappeared.  They are a heavy weight, but still hang nicely and slide easily on the bronze "Barricade" curtain rods. We recently converted a single garage into a bunkhouse at the cabin and were disappointed when the original listing for these curtains was out of stock (I reviewed those with a 5 star as well!) I quickly ordered another pair in the chocolate color when I saw they were back in stock to cover the new sliding door with the expectation that they will keep out light and keep in the heat as they do in the cabin!  the color of the new pair compared to the ones bought a year ago for the cabin are identical-YES!
We LOVE these curtains-a definite recommend!

The curtain package includes two valances and two panels. These are perfect my daughters upstairs window, and are the right thickness and weight for the existing hardware. They are cream/beige colored, so there will be some lightness in the room, but they are thick enough to block out light and are definitely in no way see through. It lets light in without compromising privacy, if that makes sense.
These were a free sample for me. I do not see a price listed on Amazon, which is unfortunate. I hope that these are available for purchase, as I would like to add to the package I received for other windows in that room.

We looked long and hard for good blackout drapes. We bought two sets of these drapes, in different lengths, for both our master bedroom sliding glass patio doors (108 inches long! They stretch from ceiling to floor), and a shorter set for our double master bathroom windows. Both sets of windows light up early in the morning, especially in the summer when that can be as early as 4:30 a.m. Far too early! And when the moon is anywhere from half to full, we get bright light directly on the glass for much of the night. Sometimes, our old vertical blinds would be so back-lit, it looked like the Close Encounters in the back yard. Not restful, that's for sure!

The best blackout drapes are actually black, or very dark color. The lighter you go, generally, the more light is going to come in. We didn't want black in the bedroom, and it was difficult to find a color that would work with our scheme. These drapes are "blue" (not the darker Navy from the same company) and are actually more like turquoise or teal, with a horizontal pattern of lines -- attractive.

We got them very tall for the bedroom (108"), which actually touch the ceiling. This way, very little light leaks around them. The grommets along the top (you have to buy your own rods -- 1" diameter work well) work far better than "pocket" drapes in this case. A pocket drape means that the material has been stitched to make a pocket that your rod slides through. While this can work in some applications, for the drapes to open fully, they have to be bunched up along the rod. In our case, that would be hard to manage as the ceiling is a long way up. The grommets make pulling the drapes open and closed much easier.

We got a shorter set of matching drapes for our en suite master bathroom. We couldn't find them in the exact length we needed, although the width was right. We got the 84" length set (the price gives you excellent value!), hung and pinned them, then cut them to our custom size. We folded them over and hemmed them. The material is a lot thinner than you might expect for blackout drapes and they hemmed nicely.

The drapes are coated (sprayed?) with a white rubber-like material. This is what blocks most of the light. Unfortunately, ours must have been folded before the coating was completely dry, and little bits of the rubber stuck to itself, which pulled off when we opened them. This left lighter "dots" which were obvious from the inside when daylight was directly on them. We used paper "white out" or liquid paper to fill these spots, and that worked. We could have returned the drapes, but we elected to live with them. One star off for that.

Overall, they are attractive. The blue color looks great in the bedroom and bathroom. We're both sleeping much better with approximately 90% of the light blocked.

Recommended.

These are certainly not blackout curtains (I purchased the white so wasn't expecting blackout, but wanted to let others know). When I received the package I was thrilled the heavy fabric was wonderful, however, the white/grey color is actually just a light grey. Luckily it still went with my color scheme so I was able to keep them. I absolutely love them and love the tie backs included (by the way they are just fabric with velcro to attach, but it serves its purpose for me. Overall I am extremely happy with this purchase and would recommend to a friend looking for room darkening curtains (not blackout).

Due to a weird schedule, my "night time" is sometimes in the middle of the day... These curtains are AMAZING. As a very light sleeper, I need darkness, and with these closed, you truly cannot tell if the sun is out or not!!

Also, they're much cheaper on here then if you go to Walmart. The ones of the same brand at Walmart are the smaller size and an ugly tweed looking fabric, for the same price. These are made for wide windows, and have a soft smooth appearance.

Note, make sure you pay attention to the size you're ordering. The size pictured doesn't change when you select a different size... Measure measure measure!!

THE BEST blackout curtains we ever purchased! They REALLY blackout!!!! I love the feel of them, and a BIG PLUS for me in that you can thread the rod at the top, or through flaps to the back-side of the curtain at the top, which worked best for me as I wanted to bring the curtains out past the edge of the window.  Love love love them!

We bought some "blackout" curtains at a big box store a year or so ago and I was really dissapointed to find out they didn't really block all the light. I should have read the fine print when I purchased them because I didn't realize that blackout curtains were not all guaranteed to block all light. I was offered these curtains at a discount in exchange for my honest review and I jumped at the chance to throw my old ones in the trash. Here's what I think.

Pros:
+ Great price. You won't find curtains of this quality, for this cheap, at a big box store.
+ They are really nice quality. The curtains are thick and the stitching is well done. I don't see any loose threads at all.
+ The size was exactly as described.
+ They were very easy to hang because of the large metal rings sown into the top. The holes are large and will fit a large variety of rods.
+ Oh yeah, they work. Light, gone. It's much cooler in the room now as well.

Cons:
- Not a huge variety of colors and sizes.

I think these curtains are very well made and they do a great job blocking out the light in my room. My wife is a nurse and she works nights and sleeps during the day. For her, these are a God send. Highly recommended!

I really like these curtains!! They go well with black, grey, ivory, and beige accents. It doesnt stand out as off against other colors.

Saw a few negative reviews that they weren't even. I didn't have that problem. They came perfectly fine. Didnt even have to iron them. They are fairly soft to the touch also.

Id give them a 4/10 for blackout.

Fantastic curtains!  They have completely lived up to their description--gorgeous, quality fabric, and they hang perfectly.  I was very pleased with the price and feel that their appearance bespeaks a far higher price than what I had to pay.  Love them and highly recommend them.  Perfect touch for the room.

These are great. I searched for quite a while to find simple and elegant white curtains that were also blackout and energy efficient. We took a risk because the product picture online is a graphic, not an actual picture of the curtains. They seem good quality, and are at a great price. We tested by only ordering 1 window-worth - and liked them enough to go back and by the rest needed to cover our bedroom and living room!

These curtains are the best I have bought so far.  I bought these for my room after having a bad experience with snagged stitching with "BRAND X" company and finally one company that does not have a sloppy stitching or snagged stitching.  I am completely happy with the way these were put together! Now to another important feature the blocking of light:  These definitely do the trick I live in the blazing Florida sun and this curtain helps block out the blistering sun! I am happy about this because I don't have to to worry about my house being super hot when I return from where ever I have gone! The colors are vibrant and modern not a drab color that brings down the design of your house as well.  SOOOOOOO In a NUTSHELL YESSS I would say buy these!

I love these.  Most blackout curtains are not as soft as these.  Bought for my baby room,  they even come with matching tie backs.

For the price, you cannot go wrong with these curtains. My daughter just bought her first house, so I wanted to get her something to spruce up her living room area. Their windows are rather narrow, so we just put one curtain on each window, rather than squishing two panels into the space. I also have the cream colored curtains in this same style and I just love that they are trendy and affordable. So, I don't feel like I'm stuck with them for the next twenty years because I didn't spend a fortune on them. These curtains get tons of compliments and people are shocked when they find out how much I spent on them.
What I love:
1. They are washable. I just wash on a gentle cycle and then hang dry for a while. After that, I tumble dry with just air after that to fluff them. Then, I hang them and use a hand steamer to get out any wrinkles. (The picture shows what it looks like right out of the package before taking a steamer or iron to it)
2. The color and design is current and attractive. These curtains allow some light to come through, but still give some privacy. They have a lovely sheen to them as well.
3. The length is perfect.
4. The grommets are large enough for most curtain rods.
What I don't love:
1. The fabric could be a little thicker, but it isn't enough of an issue that would take away from the quality and/or value of this item.

The bottom line:
They're great and when I am ready to purchase curtains for my nearly finished basement, I may just buy these again in a different color.

Awesome and well well worth the price. Curtain are very much "blackout" where they keep out almost all sunlight. I live in the Northeast where weather can drop substantially as well, and the curtains help keep the draft out very well, too. Ordered a second set for another bedroom in my apartment!

I bought these for my bedroom window because I work nights.  I was hopeful based on the reviews I read.  These are GREAT!  I am so very pleased.  They are a nice material, smooth and sleek.  They block out all light except for a tiny bit from around the top.  They look nice.  I put them on a double rod with colorful, decorative sheers in front because the solid black is not my style and it looks great.  Most important is that I can make my room dark so that I can get good sleep.
