Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

These feel nice, are put together well, and are the dimensions described. They are NOT blackout curtains. Look at the lower star reviews for this product which contain pictures and you will see many pictures showing light shining through the curtains. I suspect the pictures which do not show this were taken at night or in overcast /indirect light conditions. Note how many 4 and above star reviews also have pictures clearly showing tons of light penetrating the fabric, but are left by reviewers who are rating this product based on everything but its ability to blackout. I'm a student and work random hours in a hospital and sleep at various times of the day, I need actual blackout curtains. "Blackout"-ing ability is the reason I bought these. I believe a rational person would expect the curtains to function as described by the second word of the product title. This product would have been great (greyish white is actually really nice) if they did what they claimed to do in the title: blackout. They do not do what they claim to do. Will Return them.
