The Belknap curtains are effectively room darkening, and the fabric is a fair   quality. However, there is no lining on the curtains. I don’t like that, from outside, the color contrasts with the light lining of curtains at my other windows. Also, the curtains are so narrow that I had to hang two pair per window to make them hang fuller. Curtains should be at least double the window width and cover the windows at the corners when closed.
