I spent so much money trying to find the perfect black out curtain for our movie room ..i went to different stores and it got so frustrating to the point that i gave up ..none of the curtains i purchased worked ..i decided to order these ones on wayfair .. Have nothing to lose anyway ..and what a surprise ..they are really black out ..no light goes through them ..Amazing !!!!  ..so happy with my purchase ..really a black out curtains ..the pics showing how good they are ..
