The Huntington Room Darkening Panel looks wonderful in any room with a variety of colors as well as a sateen look and feel. Huntington panels filter out 99.8% of light for more comfortable sleep night or day. The panel also can help control room temperature, resulting in valuable savings on energy bills.

I ordered these over the other lined curtains because of the size (I have an abnormally large window) and preferred to buy 2 panels rather than 3. Although I was disappointed in the lack of color choices, I am satisfied with the product. It not only blocks light but also helps neutralize the small draft that comes through (great for the NYC winter months!).

My husband is in the military and works odd shifts, so these curtains were lifesavers when he needed to catch some z's during the day! They aren't complete black out curtains but they do a pretty good job of keeping the light out of our room and we have sun shining directly through our window most of the day. I bought 2 of the chocolate panels and they work perfectly and do have a nice sheen as stated in a previous review. For this price you can't beat them, I would highly recommend them to anyone!

I hung up 2 panels in my bedroom, the 2 panels were more than enough to cover the width of the window. The light still shone through the curtains, making them look red. Since the curtains were longer than the window is tall, I folded them in half and sewed them in place so they would be twice as thick but light still shone through them :( They are not thermal lined. These curtains are thin pieces of satin like fabric. They are better than having nothing on the window, though.

In the past I have purchased one package that had two panels. This one came with one.

I've been looking for panels in a rich, brown color for several months. I found them, but couldn't afford them...until I went to Anna's Linens. I was amazed by the fact that they had the "quality" look I wanted, at an affordable price!! They proved to be the PERFECT touch my family room needed for a fresh, updated look!! I couldn't be more pleased. Next time, I'll check Anna's Linen's FIRST!!

Was not what I had hoped!! The green sheet that it replaced blocked more light than these panels. Good side is that the room is a beautiful lavender color when the sun is out , so I wont have to paint the room. You can see through them form the outside at night, leaving you minimal privacy. Love the color and the sheen of the polyester material.

When I purchased these curtains, I have to admit that I was doing this blindly. I have heard of room darkening curtains, but my bedroom has the midday sun coming straight in, making the room extremely hot and uncomfortable. The moment that I put these up, I immediately noticed the difference as the room instantly became very dark, despite the time of the day was midday. My only complaint was that I wished that these two panels didn't come in a big box. I think that the curtains could have been packaged in a much smaller box.

I wanted very dark brown curtains that also blocked out the sun. The chocolate ones were so great that I bought them for all the rooms in our house! It's worth buying a bunch whenever they are on sale!

We are from Houston, TX but we recently moved to Oklahoma City I was looking for stores nearby until we found out there were no stores here so we decided to buy items for our house on line at annas.com From now on we are going to continue buying online.

They do exactly what they are supposed to- allow us to sleep through sunrise and during the day. If you need pitch black buy an extra panel. Any overlap or enough folds will make 100% black. The price was unmatched anywhere. They look good, though the black has a reddish hue with direct sunlight behind a flat, stretched panel, unnoticed when draped properly. The service was excellent and they shipped immediately.

Received these drapes quickly after the order was placed online. The 84" panels were not the same length; one was about 2" shorter than the other. They were wrinkled but ironed easily. I opted to keep them rather than send them back because they are used for a second bedroom and you cannot see the bottom of the drapes where they meet the floor. The length difference is quite noticeable. They do cut out a lot of the light and seem to keep the room cooler from the heat of the sun, but they are not completely room darkening. I am satisfied and they met my current needs. Haven't washed them, will probably steam when necessary.

I ordered these curtains in hopes to help block out the sun and they did it!! Not only do they look good, they definitely do their job!

We have been looking for the right amount of room darkening and finally found it. We sleep better and are not awakened by early daylight. Thank you.

These curtains served our family's purpose without hurting our pockets. The rich colors (we purchased "Brick") keep out the light without it being too dark and they "pop" with our dark espresso colored bedroom furniture. I couldn't be more satisfied with this purchase. Buy some & try them out... TODAY!

We purchased these for all the rooms in our house. We can't believe what a difference they have made in just one day. No more reflection on our TV!!! Our sons room is the hottest in the house since he gets the afternoon/evening sun. We have had temps in the 100s and they have already helped with the temp of his room. Can't wait to see the electric bill! Hope it helps with that. They seemed thin in the store but for the price, we thought we would try them out. They cut out ALOT of the sun! They are very wrinkled out of the package and will wrinkle easily so be prepared to iron them and hang them immediately.

I bought 2 panels and loved them, they do block out the sun which i liked, and as the sunsets i drape the curtains on a holdback, the curtains have a nice sheen!
