Weathermate Thermalogic Insulated Tab Top Solid Color Curtain Panels

I ordered these curtains to help insulate our drafty sliding glass doors. They arrived, and they are perfect. They look and feel like heavy canvas. I ordered the "natural" color, and it is exactly what I pictured, sort of a neutral off-white, not overly khaki colored, and also not overly bright white. The image online looked a little extra bright for my taste, but don't be afraid. I was also worried that these thermal curtains would be room darkening, which I didn't want for our dining room, and they do not darken the room much at all. They block the cold draft, but still leave our room nice and bright. I'm very happy with these curtains.

The look was great, the color was pretty, and they do in fact work very well for blocking out heat not so much with light, though. However, the smell knocked me over right out of the package. I washed them FIVE TIMES in a row, trying to get it out. Finally, I thought the smell died down and they would be okay. I hung them up at night, ten panels between my front room windows and the adjoining dining room windows. Then I went to bed and slept in late. When I woke up, it was close to noon and a sultry 98 degree day. When I came out of my bedroom, it actually felt pretty cool, even though I had not yet turned on the a/c, but there was that toxic chemical smell, again, filling the whole room where the curtains were and drifting into the others.

I Googled 'acrylic foam backing' and discovered, after reading several different articles, that this synthetic material will ALWAYS offgas fumes, but especially when heated. The house smelled like the plastic box aisle at the store, and caused me to experience a sore throat, headache, and lightheadedness. I absolutely couldn't stand it.

If you don't care about the indoor air quality of your home, and don't mind breathing in chemical vapors, these curtains may work for you. If they weren't so darn toxic, I would have loved them.

I bought these in SAGE to go with my new queen size quilt Greenland Home Blooming Prairie Full/Queen Quilt Set but I really think almost any plain color of these would match well with this quilt.

These curtains did have many creases that wouldn't iron out(following instructions, ironing on the RIGHT side only) so I ended up putting them though my washer delicate rinse cycle-and only letting them spin for a couple of mins. to just remove the water then letting them hang over the shower curtain to drip-dry, be sure to smooth them out as you hang,(would work better if you have a clothes line)this seemed to take care of the majority of the creases and what was left didn't show once hung on the rod. These do look nice and really help to darken my east-bedroom window, I'm happy!

Would look great in any room-but especially fantastic in kids rooms.

The curtains are not the size or color that was advertised. I have yet to return them because you have to pay for shipping both ways! And the curtains are too odd of a size to fit in the flat rate boxes at my office so I would have to go to the actual post office and then pay... Don't get me wrong I will absolutely be sending these back, it is just a giant pain in the butt and I have to pay for it on top of that.

Color is off, material is cheap, they are not the "extra wide" curtains that my search lead me to.

The curtains are 80" a pair, not each. Be aware when ordering, I misunderstood and ended up returning them. They did not look good, either. Sort of cheap and very crinkly.
