I read all the reviews prior to purchasing. I saw several comments on how two panels were not included, that the panels were different lengths from each other and that they did not hang correctly. I did not experience any of these issues. They are great. And I researched many brands and companies, as we wanted white. Most white were not blackout or had grey backing and then did not look white. These are 100% blackout and have a white backing. I did purchase blackout rods, so this helps that you can slide the curtain around the curve and block out side light coming in.
