I bought 6 of these panels for my bedroom after having windows replaced (my custom honeycomb room-darkening shades no longer fit).   I was looking for something that would provide blackout coverage and also look elegant.   I purchased the "Ice" color, upon another reviewer's comment that it picks up the color of the wall a bit.    It really does!    I hung them up out of the package without ironing to test the darkness.  I wish I had ironed them first but will eventually get around to steaming them, as they do come a little wrinkled from the package (as expected).   These do a group job darkening the room and have a tasteful, high-quality look.   If you are unsure of color, order a swatch!   I did, but I was impatient and just ordered the curtains the same day.
