Great, works incredibly well if you install it correctly.

I have an acupuncture practice with large windows in front. I wanted to add some privacy to the side window facing the cleaning while letting in light and it worked. You CAN install this with no "bubbles" and no problems with adhesive "breaking". Wash the window completely first. including the frame. Then just take a spray bottle and fill it with a mixture of maybe a teaspoon of baby shampoo and water. I poured the bottle of Windex into a bowl, emptied the sprayer by pushing it all the way down, and then used the baby shampoo solution. On both sides so it doesn't stick. Then just put it away and slide the credit card aside. I took a utility knife along the starting edge on one side and cut it slightly smaller than the window - imperceptible unless you're specifically looking for it. I smoothed it to the other edge and trimmed the other edge as well. (The top and bottom have about an 8 inch gap - which is what I wanted.) Don't be afraid to take it off and reattach it, but be liberal with your decision. The credit card WILL push most of the solution backwards and it WILL taste surprisingly quick. It took me a few tries to cut the second side so that it didn't overlap the edge of the window. If it overlaps, it will peel off. Also, one top edge took a few tries to get it to stick - really work with the corners and edges to make it sticky if that's the case.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Very expensive
