Living in Palm Bay, FL, means finding ways to manage both the heat of summer and the mild chill of winter. As someone who spends most of their time at home, creating a comfortable environment is crucial. I purchased these thermal insulated blackout curtains to section off a part of my house and maximize the efficiency of my Hisense portable air conditioner. Here’s my experience with these curtains.Personal ExperienceInstalling these thermal curtains was straightforward. I used an inexpensive tension rod, and the sturdy grommets on the curtains fit perfectly. I placed them in the hallway between my home office and bedroom to isolate these rooms from the rest of the house. This setup allowed me to focus the cooling power of my portable AC, making these two rooms much more comfortable throughout the day.Key Features and BenefitsThermal Insulation: These curtains are excellent at insulating. I noticed an immediate difference in temperature control. They help keep the cool air from my AC contained within my workspace and bedroom, which means my AC doesn’t have to work as hard.Blackout Capability: The blackout feature is a huge plus. Not only do they keep the temperature regulated, but they also block out light completely. This has been especially useful for afternoon naps and for reducing glare on my computer screen while I work.Performance AnalysisThese curtains perform exceptionally well in terms of insulation and light blocking. They feel thick and durable, and the material seems high-quality. The difference in temperature when these curtains are drawn versus when they are open is quite noticeable. They have made it much easier to maintain a comfortable temperature in the isolated area without overworking my air conditioner.Pros and ConsPros:Effective thermal insulation.Complete blackout capability.Easy to install with sturdy grommets.Enhances the efficiency of air conditioning.Affordable price point.Cons:None observed; the curtains slide easily over the tension rod.RecommendationFor anyone looking to improve the energy efficiency of their home and create a more controlled environment, these thermal insulated blackout curtains are a fantastic investment. They are particularly useful if you’re using a localized cooling or heating solution like a portable AC unit. For the price, they’re excellent. If I decide to make this a more permanent solution, I might replace the curtains with a sliding barn-type door.Overall ImpressionOverall, I am very satisfied with these thermal curtains. They have significantly improved the comfort of my home office and bedroom by helping maintain a stable temperature. They are well worth the investment for anyone looking to enhance their home’s energy efficiency and comfort.

Perfect fit for my sliding glass door, blocks all the afternoon sun, keeping my living room cooler. Quality materials, fabric is soft, they are made very well, they look great.

We bought these door curtains to make a faux door into our second bedroom. The quality of the fabric is great. They feel well made and are of a nice weight. They are completely blackout, you cannot see through them at all. They were very easy to install with a tension rod and slide well. I bought the dark grey curtains and really like the color. The material doesn't wrinkle with being touched and moved a lot daily.

It’s a nice light blocking, quality drape, soft fabric, very functional. Really a good value for the money. I ordered the wrong length. I have to measure to ensure I get the right length the next time.

These are exactly what we needed to separate the kitchen from the living room. We have an air conditioner in the living room that we needed to keep cool on warm nights without sharing the airflow with the kitchen space. This looks amazing in the space. The size was exactly what we ordered and fits perfectly. It keeps the warmth and coolness separated between room spaces. The quality is great. It was fairly priced. The picture is within five minutes of taking it ouf the box, so the wrinkles will get worked out. Don't forget to order a tension rod to fit your doorway. Thank you!!!

Got this to use in a doorway for privacy. It is a fantastic color - nice and bright. The length was perfect and it helps to block out the light from the main room. It was a good solution that was a great price. I would recommend for anyone looking for blackout and fun colors.

These curtains are a lifesaver! Helped to keep my living room area warm during the winter. Quality material, retained heat well, blocked the light and fabric was very soft.

Got this as a temporary solution for our non-working pocket door. I paired it with a short tension rod (not included), so no drilling was needed. I do wish I had chosen a different rod color, black or chrome finish would have fit better.The curtain fits perfectly in length, provides privacy, and the blackout effect works well— not 100%, but close. Light only comes through the top gap and the rings. The material feels soft yet heavy and durable. I steamed it right after hanging, which smoothed out all the packaging creases.I like the dark gray color, and since it was on sale, the value was great! The polished chrome rings wouldn’t normally be my favorite, but for a doorway, they’re actually very practical. They let the curtain fold away compactly so it doesn’t take up much space, and they make sliding it across the rod quick and easy. On the back side, the rings don’t look as nice as they do on the front (see last photo).Overall, for a “temporary solution,” I’m happy with it!
