I originally had curtains from Ikea because I had a really hard time finding nice curtains that worked for my 9 foot ceilings and massive windows. And these curtains when I found them, they were perfect! Ive had them for a yr now, and they look the same as the day i recieved them! They have held up to large dogs stepping on them and jumping on them and held up to cat playing in them.  Someone spilled red wine on one and it washed no Prob! Little shout soap and water didnt even have to take it down! Love these curtains , bit expensive but totally worth it!
