Pleasantly surprised at just how lovely these curtains are; I bought 3 pairs of varying lengths & they effortlessly suit my room perfectly (deep red & cream walls). Although not thermal, they are keeping the heat in the room as well, which is an added bonus.  The fabric hangs beautifully after a very gentle iron (unavoidably creased due to packaging).  I am on a waiting list to order more as I would like to hang the same in an adjoining room.  Overall, very pleased & happy.  Even my husband likes them & he is very hard to please!
