Deconovo White Blackout Curtains 95 Inches Long, Energy Efficient & Noise Reducing Rod Pocket Drapes, Thermal Insulated Curtains for Living Room Sliding Door (2 Panels, 52" W x 95" L)

I love these curtains. Got a pair in grey an a pair in navy. The material is shiny and looks a lot like satin to my untrained eyes. So if you are looking for more of a standard sheen on the material, maybe these aren't right for you.The pictures I have included show 3 images taken about 1 minute apart, that show the navy curtains by themselves, the grey + the navy curtains both closed (grey is room-side of the 2), and no curtains. All shots were taken with the blinds up, but not put up. I used no flash, turned off the bedroom lights, and stood in the same spot. These were taken around 2 pm in Minnesota, of a window that faces east. At 2 pm, the sun in the sky over MN would be a bit behind me and off my right shoulder when I took these pictures. This room does get full morning sun, but I like my neighbors and won't start drilling walls until 9 am.The "blackoutness" of these curtains... They are exactly what they advertise to be. In this instance, there is a lot of people who don't know what "blackout" actually means in the curtain industry. This is unfortunate and maybe someday will be resolved. But let's talk about going "full blackout", shall we?Let me preface this with the following:Almost everyone I know who purchases blackout curtains for the first time ends up doing the same things:1) They put them up, realize that no, their room is not in fact 100% blackness, then2) Complain about itThings those people generally do wrong:)! Fail to realize there are different levels of "blackout".2) Do not know or care about the optics of the human eye or how the brain perceives things in the dark The shortish version is: if your blackout curtains let in any light, because the rest of the room is so dark, it makes the amount of light stand out and it seems infinitely brighter than your brain thinks it should. Example? After you pop out of the shower, you stand in a fully lit bathroom to get ready no problem. Walk into the same bathroom in the middle of the night when the house is totally dark to pee, those lights will feel like tiny suns!3) Fail to order curtains 2 x the actual width of your window. Good curtain sites tell you this, and good articles say the same things. Even the absolute best blackout curtains are going to struggle mightily if your window is 40 inches wide and you hang 2 20 inch panels to cover it.4) If you have the room, and you can make it work, I always buy a rod that is at least 12" (I prefer 24 or more)" wider than the window, and curtains that are at least 18 inches taller than the window. The reason you do this is often, the majority of the light that is getting into your room is coming around your blackout curtains. Check out my picture where the curtains look red (they're actually navy blue). Those curtains hang over 18" below the window, yet a good amount of light still comes under.Now, before my actual review, some tips from a person who has had migraines for 35 years and who has spent countless years either working nights, or being a night owl. If you want to know how to darken a room, I'm your guy!Step 1: Spend a tremendous amount of money on the top end blackout curtains that black 100% of the light. Notice that said curtains let light around the sides and bottom anyways. Swear and enjoy your very expensive rook darkening curtains. OR buy yourself a double rod. Get 2 sets of identical quality, yet inexpensive, blackout curtains. I purchased the 52 x 63 in navy blue and grey for $22 each. After you add in the curtain rods, I have about $90 into this. A price well worth it when my head is trying to explode from the inside out.Step 2: If you are at all able, pretend your window is at least 12" wider per side (24 inches) and at least 12" longer (I prefer 24" but I have a baseboard heat right under this window and those destroy curtains. If you have limited space - like if your window is quite near a corner - you can make the best of this situation by purchasing a curtain rod(s) that have removable ends. Run the curtain right to the wall and you will block most of what was going to get around it anyway. Once you have added 24" to the window width, then multiply that by 2. If your window is say 30 inches, you add 24 (54 total) then double it (108). This is how much curtain you will need. Remember, you have already added a bunch of extra to the sides so there is no need to go gangbusters and buy 160 inches of curtains for your 108" goal. In fact, in that situation, since 52" wide is so common, i'd use those, giving you 104" which is sufficient.Step 3: For the height - Do the best you can with what you have. When there's no baseboard heater under my windows I like to run them all of the way to the floor regardless of actual window height. This blocks more light.Ste 4: If you are really serious about blacking out your room, here are tips I currently use. I have black electrical tape over every LED in my bedroom - even the ones that aren't on all of the time. I have a box without a lid or a bottom that I drop over my amazon spot to block the screen. I have a simple piece of weather stripping (flat) that attaches to the inside of my door that is flexible and blocks the light from under the door. I have more flat weather stripping that is installed on the inside of the door stop (the wood that the door shuts against) that sticks out ~ 1/2" and blocks light from the tops and sides of the door. I have a single super cheap lamp that has a great 3stone smart light bulb in it. When I tell my Echo Spot "headache lights" (she really struggled with migraine so I changed it to headache) that super cheap lamp turns on a very economical bulb as dim as possible with a very warm orange light.If you made it this far, I hope I helped!

I couldn't afford anything too pricey, so I was a little skeptical at first, but the panels turned out to be what I was looking for. They keep most of the light out on my sliding glass door and are a lot better than what I previously had up. No complaints. If ur looking for for nice inexpensive panels these would probably work for you. Please see my photo: the left are my old panels (lots of light) and the right side are the new panels allowing very little light through. You can see there is a big difference.

We are loving these. We got the long size because we have high ceilings and these look great, they are very thick and block light very well. For how affordable these are I am extremely impressed.

For my kid's Christmas gift I built them a stage, custom seating/storage and shelving. Along with remodeling their entire playroom. I used these curtains against a wall that has a window. It completely blocks the sun out. People don't even realize there's a window back there. These are also quality for the price. I was very surprised.

I ordered 4 sets of light grey curtains and recieved three different color panels. Within the box, three sets were in plain black packaging, the other was obviously a returned item in a random clear bag and only one panel was folded.

This photo really doesn't do these things justice. Can make the day feel like night, so I guess it's literally a night and day difference.... Haha. Seriously though, I live in Las Vegas and have an east facing French door that leads to the backyard. I thought the curtains we had would work because they were so heavy and double lined, but they were not at all blocking out enough light or heat. You could walk past there and actually feel the intense temperature difference.... that is, until I got these!!! Seriously one of the best Amazon purchases I've made not just for my house, but in general.... and that's saying a lot because I buy A LOT of stuff on Amazon. My camera kept trying to make the photo brighter so you can't tell just how dark it is in here now but it's VERY dark. Seriously couldn't be happier with these. My roommate constantly reminds me of how happy he is with this purchase and that NEVER happens. I'm thinking about getting more for the other rooms as well.

I was a little disappointed when they came and they were not the blackout curtains that I am used to. They were very soft and they ironed well. I decided to give them a try. They worked perfect. I am not using them to block light. I am using them on the stair case that goes up to 2 bedrooms that we dont use anymore . They worked well for a great price. I think they are nicer than black out curtains. It is nice the same color is on both sides. It was a mistake that ended up being better than my original plan.

I ordered these curtains to separate a large, open room to conserve on heating costs this winter. Drafts from the front door do not get to the thermostat and the furnace doesn’t come on as frequently, the longer length keeps the living room warm as they reach floor to ceiling in our house. It also means winter power outages will not be as uncomfortable with a smaller area to heat with our generator......the lengths of cotton cloth I have been using for emergency drapes did not do the job the Deconovo curtains have done. A nice plus for me is that the curtains are the same color on both sides so people coming in the front door see the same rich color we have in the living room. They are certainly wrinkle free right out of the package, no creases or wrinkles to iron out! I am very pleased with the performance of these curtains.

I have been looking for black out curtains specifically. There are not black out curtains and should not be advertised as black out curtains. These are room darkening curtains only. They darken the room about 70%. The material is soft & not cheap. I would have kept them if they were 100% black out.

For the price they are ok. Don't expect a Blackout curtain. They are not. Blackout curtains block 99% to 100% of the light (and they are usually more expensive but I was open to get surprised with the price). I would say this is a room darkening curtain that blocks between 60 to 70% of the light (just to say that the sun still wakes me up - with this curtains and a set of blinds behind it).

I didn't realize it was a single panel - my fault. When I realized it was a single panel, I wanted to return because it seemed overpriced for the quality. The material is quite shiny and it is definitely not full black out. However, despite being an Amazon prime item, it is going to cost $10 to return. Disappointed because now I either need to purchase another matching mediocre curtain, or purchase a full set.

EXCELLENT quality, fit for the window perfect! (purchased 2 pkgs) Did take out the extra seam for curtain rod, my rod is square, curtains fit perfect over rod after seam removal. removing seam took less than 30min. using tweezers VERY quick and easy!!I am very HAPPY with this purchase!! Will purchase another set for my kitchen in the futureMaterial very good quality, they look expensive and rich. Great addition / change for my livingroom!!!!Delivery was quick quick quick!!!!!!!!

The material looks rich and the stitching is professional. While most curtain widths are 48 (wide) x 60 (high) inches, this one is 52 x 63 inches, which covers the window better. At around Rs 425 per piece, it's a bit pricey.
