Excellent quality; total blackout
I originally purchased the regular Nicetown blackout curtains, but they let A LOT of light through. I liked the color and material, but they just weren't what I was looking for. I've checked out these curtains again recently, and it seems they've renamed them to clarify that they are 50% blackout curtains, which still seems a little misleading. Maybe they could call them gray out curtains, or just....curtains. Anyways, after a couple nights of terrible sleep, I returned them ordered these 100% blackout curtains, and they are incredible!The curtains are thick and remind me of heavy hotel curtains. Even in broad daylight, they make my bedroom completely pitch black. The material is also really nice.My only complaint is that they're kind of a pain to de-wrinkle. I put them in the dryer with a damp cloth for twenty minutes, and I also ironed them before hanging them. However, I think it was time well-spent, as they now look pretty elegant.Overall, these curtains look good and will help improve your sleep, so if you're considering getting blackout curtains, you can't go wrong with these.Update, several months later: My neighbor texted me this morning asking what happened at our other neighbor's house last night. I replied that I went to be early and didn't know what he was talking about. It turns out that she had a gas leak, and a firetruck was parked in front of my house for 30 minutes, flashing its lights. I'm an incredibly light sleeper, and two of my 3 bedroom windows face the street, so the fact that I slept through the night makes me even more convinced that these curtains are the real deal!GET THEM!!!

Works just as they say — blocks the light & muffles sound!
Before I purchased, I read through so many of the reviews on these curtains. I had previously purchased similar curtains from Bed, Bath & Beyond and was sorely disappointed when they didn't work, so I was a bit skeptical that these would be any different. But, I figured hundreds of 5 star reviews couldn't be wrong — and they weren't. These do exactly as they say — block the light completely, and help to muffle sound. I live next to a busy highway and as soon as I put these up, it sounded like the highway was far in the distance. I track my sleep every night, and since I've had these curtains I've gone from a 60%-70% quality of sleep to 90%+ every single night. Highly recommend!

Crisp, Well made and super effective!
I bought “blackout” curtains from Home Goods for my entire house except 3 windows. They didn’t have enough at the store so I purchased my last 3 from amazon. I paid $22/piece for the first ones which I’d rate as cheap now that I have my new NiceTown blackout curtains. The NiceTown curtains were double the price far superior in quality and blackoutness. Is that a word? Hahahaha. I loved my White NiceTown curtains so much I purchased them for all the rooms in my house. Do not double guess the price. They are totally worth it. Was kinda scared to put white curtains against an off white wall but they are super crisp and look great. Most of all, they are effective. My last 3 summer electric bills were $300-$330 respectively. My electric bill was $228 this month. Granted I had no window coverage before and is the reason I bought blackout curtains in the first place. I never write reviews. Ever. You needed to know this about these curtains. That’s how great I feel about them. Crisp, well made and effective!!!! Period.

Why buy these curtains from Amazon, when I can get it from Walmart, or Target, today?
1- Yes, you can get blackout curtains, there- but, Amazon will get them to you in 3 or 4 days. Mine arrived in 2 days. I didn't even have to leave the house!2- IMO, the ones I saw at Walmart/Target weren't as thick. They had a black-liner- but that's about it.3- Because they weren't as thick (to me), they didn't feel like they'd do a whole lot.----These curtains were well worth the purchase. They're nice, heavy & made of great material- very durable. Folded, 1 panel felt like the weight of 2 or 3 pairs of jeans.2018 has been the hottest summer in Southern California- that I can remember, ever. I wanted these curtains to help keep the heat out of my direct, afternoon-sunlit-room. I didn't care about darkness. I was damn-near ready to find a way to mount my auto-shade onto the window sill. Not only did these curtains block out the sun & heat- they kept the room at a more-than-tolerable, temperature.-When I buy another set- no question about it- I'll come back & buy these.**Note- If you want your room dark- stretch the curtains out, to where the top (by the bar) is flattened. Pin curtain to the walls using thumbtacks. Folder the bottom of the curtain to sit on the window sill. This should lessen the amount of light (therefor, Heat) from creeping into the room.

Awesome!
I absolutely love the curtains. I was a little skeptical if they really keep the room dark. They let in a little bit of light where the slider is, and a little at the top of the window. That room gets the evening sun and it is brutal.The curtains on the left are four panels over the window, and the right has four panels over the slider.I added two pictures, one with direct sunlight and the other at night so you can get an idea how beautiful they look.I ordered two sets two different times and they are all the same length and color. Shipping was fast too.I really couldn't be happier with this purchase.

See-through around rings
These curtains definitely get the job done—blocking out heat and light. The white looks great and makes the room look larger. However, black strings and uneven cuts of the back black layer are visible all along the upper portion where the rings are—especially when bright light shines through from outside.

Love these curtains!
These are amazing blackout curtains. Beautiful and good quality. Completely blocks the sun in my spare bedroom which has direct sunlight. Great price as well!

I sleep like a brick now
You can’t put a value on a good night’s sleep. I used to be tired at work all the time. Then I got these. Now my bedroom is so dark I can’t tell the difference between my eyes being open or closed and I sleep like an absolute brick.I use Velcro strips to stick them to the walls and to each other - cuts down on all light getting through around the edges.

good quality and great at blocking out the light!
I bought these because I get migraines and sometimes just need the darkest room possible. The curtains themselves are fantastic they block out light, however I will need to look at changing how I hang them because light does escape from above because the curtains are not flush with the wall due to my curtain rod. I find the curtains all hang quite nicely together (I have 4 panels) and I can set them up so there is no light that leaks through its one nice solid wall of no light. I think these are fantastic and would definitely recommend them to others.I have included 2 photos, you can see where the light gets in from the top because of my curtain rod I have at the moment, but that also gives you a good idea of how much light these curtains are blocking out because under that is just darkness. First photo is without flash and the second photo is with a camera flash.(the photos were taken just after I unpackaged them and hung them, the wrinkles you see worked themselves out over time and now hang nicely)I don't know if it helps with noise cancellation or energy savings or any of that, but it works perfectly for what I needed it for, which is room darkening.

Great curtains!
Love these curtains! Great material, nice and soft. Specially love that they are pure white. Hard to find a curtain without the greyish tinge. Had been concerned that the black on the back would show. Doesn't show at all. Photos show the curtains right after they were taken out of the packaging and hung up. Therefore, the wrinkles. Hoping that with time the wrinkles will come out. Have not washed them yet. Highly recommend!

Great curtains!
Gorgeous colour, high quality material and a great fit. They are heavy enough to do their job but still not too heavy that I would need a heavy duty curtain rod. We bought them for the kitchen where we have glass doors leading onto the deck. Not for blocking out light but the cold draft in winter. And so far we are very happy. The kitchen is now a lot warmer when I come down in the morning and I can definitely feel a difference to before.There was no smell what so ever when we unpacked them. Very satisfied and considering buying more for other drafty windows in the house!
