Not really “blackout” BUT…
These are a made from a good quality and relatively thick fabric which block a good amount of sunlight but if you’re seeking true blackout drapes, you will need to be creative to achieve a completely dark room with these as they are not lined at all. Since the seller indicated these drapes aren’t true blackout within the description, I purchased a blackout reflective panel that adheres to the window with Velcro adhesive strips and prior to hanging the drapes, applied it to the glass.I’ve never liked the texture of blackout drapes as they feel stiff and plasticky so I opted for a solution that allowed for a richer aesthetic. Obviously these drapes remain closed since the glass has been fitted with a heat reflective panel in order to keep out the desert heat here in Las Vegas, where I live.I am extremely happy with these beautiful velvet drapes and love how they hang, feel, look PLUS they deliver exactly what I was hoping for.The color is perfect and I was torn between several options. I took several weeks of looking at different types of fabrics, colors and at every seller on Amazon to finally make my decision. I was originally going to use a linen fabric with blackout panels sewn into the backing but when I came across these I began to rethink it altogether. I could not be more satisfied with my choice to change the fabric to velvet and to go with a color I’d not considered at all. The stone blue is very forgiving as it has a slightly green hue and is a sneaky “color shifting” shade that would fit just about any pallet. The room is predominantly furnished with dark blues and a plush multicolored area rug with a cream/off white background, the carpet’s muted blues, greens and pastel reddish pink touches just look lovely with these rich velvet, flowing drapes.Upon arrival I threw these in the washer, I bought 2 packages so all 4 panels went in on the “bulky”cycle with warm water. Since they’re polyester I expected no shrinkage. I dried them partially, leaving them slightly damp and hung them immediately. This technique works on heavier fabrics to remove most wrinkles as the weight itself aids in removing fold marks. I employed a hand held steamer (if you don’t own one, get one as it’ll change your life) to get out any stubborn wrinkles. I cannot imagine a better result. You don’t need an expensive steamer as they all use the same technology and I use it frequently instead of an iron.One thing I noticed while setting out on this journey of drape buying online, is that the same exact products are sold by many merchants and prices are definitely not consistent. I found myself chasing my tail when looking for that elusive best price. The day after I hung my drapes, a different seller had the same drapes at a 40% lower price. The photos and diagrams are identical from one vendor to the next plus the color charts and names of each color are the same. To say I felt disappointed to find that had I waited a day to save 40% Is an understatement. But I’d hung the drapes and I work alone and it’s a tricky process when hanging heavier fabric. As I’m not an acrobat and will not allow my husband to be involved, as that quickly becomes a liability due to using a “mansplain” translation decoder ring and putting us in the crosshairs of divorce, I quickly realized that forgetting about losing out on saving some money was not all that important.I highly recommend these and if you are considering a divorce, to get that ball rolling, ask your spouse to “assist” which will likely bring out your inner Cujo.Arrived when promised but mediocrely packaged. Mine were fineYes- order them.

Beautiful, Luxurious Curtains!
I am very happy with this purchase! The curtains look incredibly elegant and add a luxurious touch to the room. The fabric is soft and thick, which blocks the light effectively and creates a cozy atmosphere. The length is perfect, and the color is rich and beautiful — just like in the pictures. I would definitely order again and highly recommend this product!

🌟 Elegant and Rich-Looking Curtains!
These StangH mustard gold velvet curtains are absolutely stunning! The color is even more beautiful in person — a rich, deep gold that adds warmth and elegance to the whole room. The velvet fabric feels thick, soft, and luxurious, and it drapes perfectly from top to bottom.They do a great job at darkening the room without making it feel too heavy. I love how they instantly gave my living room that cozy, high-end look. The stitching and quality are excellent, and they look like something you’d find in a boutique hotel.At 108 inches, the length is perfect for tall windows, and they hang beautifully. I’ve already gotten so many compliments! If you want to add a touch of class and comfort to your space, these curtains are worth every penny.

Fantastic Curtains
I bought 2 packs, (4 panels total), 108 inch, in the color; bleach white. I was nervous about the color and weight as I was ordering them but was pleasantly surprised when they arrived! The color is pure white - just as I wanted, and looked great against my off - white walls. I hung them in my living room that is beige, tan, & white (with color accents). The fabric is not a real velvet (I have to say that to be honest) but they are a wonderful soft, velvety like, textured material. The panels have a good weight and are constructed nicely with a nice bottom pocket hem. The wrinkles steamed out pretty easy with my small portable hand steamer. A few remaining wrinkles that I could not reach shook out in a few days. Lastly, the curtains are opaque enough that you can’t see in my living room from the outside, but allows a good amount of filtered light in so the room is not blacked out. I highly recommend these curtains and would buy them again.

Elegant, great quality, budget friendly
These curtains are perfect. Very elegant, expensive feel, but also very inexpensive. I had purchased a set of velvet curtains and could have bought 10 of these for what I paid for those. The velvet ones were the wrong color and wouldnt work. These look much better and I couldn't be happier. I will be buying more.

Best curtains ever.
I googled blackout curtains and got a recommendation for curtains that were not these, that had thousands of reviews. I decided to risk it and buy these instead (they don’t really emphasize their blackout capabilities on the listing the same as the other ones that were recommended did) because I already have these in gray for the living room and love them, but I rarely close them so I didn’t know what level of blackout they would be. This time I purchased the black and it’s like, full blackout. And they are beautiful. I couldn’t be happier with these curtains. They are absolutely gorgeous, they are priced really well and they come in whatever size you want which makes them the perfect curtain. They are fancy, they are heavy, they are beautiful, did I already say gorgeous? I am thrilled with my new curtains and I can’t recommend them enough. (You can see one speck of light down below where door mat lifts the bottom of the curtain the tiniest bit.)
