BGmentRod Pocket Blackout Curtains for Bedroom - Thermal Insulated Room Darkening Curtain for Living Room, 42 x 45 Inch, 2 Panels, Dark Grey

TLDR; These are great and dark! Approved!I had to write a review partly because of how long I spent reading/comparing reviews on every affordable “black out curtain” on Amazon that I could find and felt like a review like mine woulda sold me on these sooner.Firstly- they’re great and I am happy with my purchase and definitely recommend these!I just moved into a place where the sun rises right in my window and there are days I don’t wanna be up at 6am. I already have slatted window blinds, but those are generally useless for light filtration. These are not necessarily BLACK OUT curtains. If you are looking for a 3rd shift sleeper or nursery, these MIGHT not be dark enough for you.**However**!! Having tried to sleep with the blinds not doing anything and then these? It’s literally night and day difference. They were PLENTY dark enough to aid my sleeping in, and I’m a very light sleeper. So while they aren’t technically BLACK OUT- they are ABSOLUTELY darkening enough to sleep with. I am picky and pleased.Secondly, as you can see, the landlord unfortunately have the apartment walls painted a cream color - that just so happens to match my bed frame exactly lol. With warm lighting on top of that, I really wanted a color that would crisp and cool the space down from its warmness. Choosing the right blue took a while as most blue curtains offered are a greyish/muted color or a dark blue, or an aqua/greenish tinted blue - all of which would make the room look dingy. This blue color is really nice, light and airy but still modest.Thirdly, they came wrinkled, as to be expected with packaging. So expect to iron or steam before hanging, but don’t set your iron too hot. I used a small iron and it didn’t do great, I wish I had a steamer.Lastly- In the photos, with the curtains closed, it seems like there is a lot of light coming thru and that deterred me in seeing this in others photos. Tried to show the difference with them drawn, but really assuring you, it’s not too bright!

I received my curtains. The day after I ordered them and they arrived in proper packaging and in good condition. The quality of these curtains is excellent. The color, royal blue, is amazing. I am very pleased with my order and will be placing additional orders in the future.

Curtains are usually ridiculously expensive and I just needed a small set for my sons nursery. I couldn’t be happier with these! Threw them in the dryer for a few min to get the wrinkles out and they looked perfect. They’re pretty thick, I would call it like an 80% blackout

It’s hard to find blackout curtains that are ACTUALLY blackout. I can definitely say you wouldn’t be disappointed in these. Zero light coming through (except for where the tension rod is, due to this being an older house with random size windows). Will definitely be purchasing more of these in the future!

Curtains work as described. Happy with purchase. Material is slightly wrinkled out of package so you may want to lightly iron. Silky material.
