The reviews really helped me with this purchase. Our guest room is casually appointed with bright color accents, predominately a very bright yellow. I wanted casual cotton curtains that blocked a majority of the light--for privacy and early morning sunlight. However, I did not want to make our guests unaware of the daylight hours--no total room darkening.
These curtains are a mid weight, nicely weighted at the bottom, and a neutral, so as not to compete with the furnishings. They were easy to hang, after pressing out a bit, on curtain track with curtain pins. I would highly recommend them
