Vision Home Natural Full Blackout Curtains Linen Blended Darkening Window Curtains 84 inch for Living Room Bedroom Thermal Insulated Pinch Pleat Drapes with Hooks 2 Panel 40"Wx84"L

I’ve been searching for a budget friendly pinch pleat curtain and found the perfect ones! Here I used 2 panels on each side since they are quite small and needed a fuller look. After giving them a good steaming they look absolutely perfect and a great faux linen texture. They come out of the package already pretty well memory trained, so thats a plus! I don’t need them to be black out since we don’t close them but they are very blackout if thats what you need them for. 10/10!!

I purchased one pair: White * Vision Home White Pinch Pleated Full Blackout Curtains Thermal Insulated 90 inch with Hooks, Back Tab. 1 Panel 60"W x 90L. I purchase comes with 2 panels.I spent 8 hours researching blackout curtains. I hope to save you time in your research. You might think these curtains are expensive, but the quality is well worth it. They look luxurious, and they are half the price of others that I was considering. Note: It takes two people to hang these curtains.First of all, I am pleased with the color of white. It almost matches my white wood trim and white ceiling. The color pops against my seafoam green walls. See PHOTO 1.I liked that there was no odor when I opened the box. The curtains were perfectly packed with precise pleats. After the curtains were hung, I steamed them, and the wrinkles easily fell away.PHOTO 1: I had steamed the top half of the curtains, but not the bottom half.The curtains themselves are completely blackout. However, the morning sun shines through the sides and the top. See Photo 2 attached. I placed my curtains six inches from the ceiling. The curtains extend 6 inches to either side of the window. My bedroom is much darker at night, and I am sleeping more deeply, but the sun still wakes me up in the morning.If you desire total blackout, I suggest that you buy a curved curtain rod made for blackout curtains. Hang the curtains at the top of the wall next to the ceiling.I love the tailored look of the pleats. We inserted the hooks that came with the curtains into the back of the pleats. I bought metal clip rings and attached them to the curtain hooks. I needed 24 rings.These curtains weigh 14 pounds, which is fairly heavy. Since I have a nine-foot-wide (108”) window, I needed a sturdy curtain rod. I wanted an additional 6” on either side of the window to pull the curtains past the window, so I needed a total width of 120”. I bought an Ivilon Drapery Rod 120-240” so the rod strength could almost be doubled. It worked great. Ivilon rod: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09KYD8BF8?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1I bought these curtain wands: 2 Pack 36 Inch Universal Drapery Pull Rod Invisible Clear Curtain Wand for Easier Opening and Back (Acrylic, 36"), brand name: Toofn on Amazon. We attached these rods to the two center rings to make the curtains slider easier and to prevent soiling the curtains by touching them.One more thing – be sure to get this: Curtain Drapery Ring Glide Tape on Amazon, Brand SnnShun. Use it to prevent the curtain rings from getting stuck on the curtain rod extensions. Use two or three rows of the tape, and cover the full length of the rod. We used one row of tape which is not sufficient. The rod turns slightly from day to day as I pull the curtains back and forth, and I have to adjust the rod by hand.All in all, I am very pleased with these purchases. Wishing you ease and joy with your curtains.

Gorgeous draperies! They are thick and effective at light blocking. Beautiful texture and white color looks just like the product photo. Very pleased. Will likely purchase more of these for my home!

Great blackout capabilities. Looks very pretty and hangs nicely. Heavy and high-end look and feel. Worth the money.

These were everything I had hoped for: blackout, thermal protection, and light in color. It kept its polished, professional looking form right out the pack with minimal wrinkling. My only complaint is I wish they had these in something other than linen, I’d snap them up in a heart beat!
