I read the reviews before purchasing the white version of these curtains and was very happy with them when they arrived. They are very sturdy and are the color I expected. They are a bit grayish in color - definitely not bright white - but that is exactly what the reviews said. They also have a subtle chevron pattern that makes them extra fun. They are very wrinkly, but I haven't had a chance to put them in the dryer yet. The directions seem easy enough to fix the wrinkles, however.
