I love the print and the material of these curtains, they bring a light brightness to my bedroom many blackout curtains do not offer. They are substantial at blacking out enough for sleep, but do not make the room 100% pitch dark. The tab option on the top is wonderful to create a pleated effect as I had exhausted all Grommet Top options, and didn't want the bunched look, so this works!! I bought a length to cascade the floor a bit, and I'm not sure the material is light enough to pull that look off, but we need to raise our rods a little more and will have to see then. Very happy, and can't beat the price for curtains!!
