Great purchase
Really useful purchase to black out the bedroom in the height of summer. Easy to put in place but the adesive does not always adhere for a long time but if you clean and prepare the surface properly you should not need to kep putting them back up every couple of cays.

Pleasantly surprised but a bit of a pain day-to-day
They're surprisingly good at cutting outside light. Really easy to install and cut to size. The only thing is they're a pain to fold up during the day and they did start to unstick after a while, especially if there is a lot of condensation. It's really just a temporary fix rather than a long-term solution.

Very easy to cut and fix
Very easy to cut and fix , block out all the light room is only used on occasions so not sure how long they will last.

Not blackout, cannot roll up
The product is no good. The light goes through these wannabe blackout curtains cause they're made of thin paper. The installation sucks since you have to cut it to your dimensions and then stick it to the window but then you cannot fix the lower part (missing glue or something) and you cannot roll it up! It looks sad and simply doesn't do the job. I really want my money back...

Excellent product
Excellent product. Good value for money and easy to install. Perfect temporary window coverings whilst permanent covering takes longer or arrange. Durable and so I do not anticipate having to replace. I also managed to fit one to my dorma window with a bit of creativity to secure at the bottom.

Excellent. Just what we needed when we moved house ...
Excellent. Just what we needed when we moved house and had no curtains. Also, have now taken two of the blinds down and if your careful they don’t even leave a mark. Highly recommend.

Clips / pegs not strong enough to hold blind. Adhesive not strong enough either to stick.

These shades block out sunlight extremely well, go up in seconds and look fantastic. Others mentioned that the adhesive didn't keep up for extended periods so I decided to put tacks in the top corners to prevent them falling. If you're just going to use the adhesive, I suggest washing the surface first to improve the contact. (I put one up without tacks, so I'll update this review if/when it falls down.. but if you're reading this, it means it hasn't fallen yet.) Since they're made of paper and can't be washed (only dusted), I'd consider these to be single-use and wouldn't recommend using them in bathrooms or in situations where you'll need to raise & lower them often (they'll likely tear easily if you're not careful) but they're perfect for covering windows (or the tops of them) permanently. You can shorten both the length and width easily with a utility knife as needed. As they're very lightweight, a slight breeze can make them move away from the window, so you may wish to tack down the bottom corners if this is a problem. Alternatively, you could use magnets to weigh it down (or use velcro.) If you plan on using these on shorter windows (3' tall or less), you could cut them in half along the seams and put them up with tacks (or double-sided tape or velcro) to get 12 shades out of it instead of 6. Just keep in mind you won't have enough clips to raise them all at once. One reviewer mentioned that it didn't come with the clips/clamps, but mine did and they look to be good quality and will probably outlast the shades (I attached a picture since one wasn't provided.) While I probably won't be using the clamps to raise the shades, I'll be keeping them to find another use for. If used for the right purpose, these are an amazing value and look great. Exactly what I needed. Hope this helps, sorry for the long-winded review.

Cumplen su función, si bloquea la luz, un 90%, trae 6 piezas, bien por mi ya que lo use para mi ventana de 2 metros, y lo restante lo usaré para otra ventana. se tuvo que reforzar el anclaje ya que se cayó a las 24 horas, el material es más grueso de lo que imaginé. Lo necesito porque trabajo de noche y me ayuda mucho a dormir de día sin luz. Le doy 5 estrellas. Sí volvería a comprar. Llegó a tiempo y la caja impecable.

First, these shades work... very well. The material lets ZERO light through. Other than the light coming around the gaps between the shade and the window frame, no light penetrates the shade itself. Total darkness! But don't get it twisted... these are otherwise pretty flimsy. Don't buy them expecting hardware or anything "sturdy." They are essentially a 36" wide piece of pleated paper. The paper material seems to maybe be a mixture of paper, cloth and plastic. So it feels like it's going to hold up well (and the reviews I relied on to make my purchase indicated that it does). At the top of the shade is an adhesive strip (peel and stick). After cutting the shade to size, you peel the wax paper and stick it up. Its very sticky, so get it in the correct place before lifting it to the edge you plan to stick it to. There's no do overs. The set comes with 2 clips per shade to hold them up or down. That's the only hardware. No strings to pull. No screws or brackets. Just two clips. But this makes installation so easy. Installation tips... 1. Measure the window width at top, middle and bottom. You'll cut the shade to the most narrow measurement. 2. Measure and cut each window at a time. You'll learn from doing the first one (at least I did!). I didn't quite trim the first one narrow enough... and cut the rest a little more narrowly. 3. Once you know the measurement, use a cutting board and very sharp knife or razor to "slice" the shade. Keep it folded like a block (adhesive stip facing up) and you can slice through it. 4. First, inspect the window frames for dust or grime and clean them if needed to ensure adhesion. Then peel the waxpaper strip off the adhesive. Align it in the window about an inch from the top to be sure its centered and cut to the right width. Then stick it to top of the window frame (a clean, smooth surface. If your window frames are dirty, or textured, they won't hold). 5. Then let the rest of the shade unfold (drop). It will eventually relax and fill the window. Pinch two clips to the bottom. My windows are pretty long , so I didn't need to trim anything off. But you can trim them easily if you have shorter windows and don't want to leave the excess. 6. To raise the shade, just remove the clips and fold the pleats back up to near the top of the window and replace the clips to hold it up. I found putting them about 1.5" from the edge looked best (less sag). For $10, you CANNOT beat these for a quick, functional method to blackout light. I intend to buy true shades for close to $50 each at some point in the future. But since my wife works nights, and we have 11 windows in our room... that wasn't a viable option to get her a dark room to sleep in NOW. These worked perfectly for now (and much easier to install too).
