I am a big fan of this new Eclipse Blackout Shade! I already had blackout curtains up and thought I'd try these new blackout shades with them and they work great! I don't even have to pull the curtains closed now because the shade blocks out all the light. I love that they have no cords on them like traditional blinds do. I'm not a huge fan of how they look on  the outside of the window,  but I think I'll get used to it.
