Bought three sets and bought another I loved them so much. Heavier weight fabric creates a great hang. Was able to hang them straight from the package and only hand to touch them up with my flat iron. They are not blackout for light ( more room darkening) but they are not see through. ( if a light is on in a room there is no visible silhouette). There is a lustre to the panels that allows a wide range of tones to choose from for paint and decor.
