Review on Turquoise Blackout Curtains With Wave Print - Deconovo Room Darkening Thermal Insulated Grommet Top Curtains For Kids Room - Includes 2 Panels, 42X72 Inch by Ben Jacobson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not "Blackout " Curtains

I searched very carefully on ebay for blackout curtains for my bedroom. When I found these curtains in the size I needed I ordered them. The online description said "blackout" curtains and also the packaging said "blackout". I was disappointed to discover that they are really "room darkening" which is not enough to block out the morning sun. The product information also said that they were "thermal" which is not true either. The curtains are single-layer medium-thick material with no lining at all. I gave them a 3-star rating because they are fairly well-made and do, in fact, somewhat darken the room. I think this is false advertising and I regret buying these curtains.UPDATE: The PR person for this company reached out to me to make amends. Because I like the curtains and wish to keep them, the only thing the company can do is to reword the description to emphasize room-darkening as opposed to blackout. If you’re looking for blackout curtains look for "100% blackout”. I’ll know next time!

Pros
  • FUNCTION CURTAINS - These room darkening curtains can block most of sunlight and UV rays from getting into room.They also help in saving on energy cost as they reduce the amount of heat lost in cooler months and reflect heat in the summer. These amazing curtains are sound barrier that reduce noise from busy streets or noisy neighbors and they will provide utmost privacy as they are not see-through.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for all room lighting
