Pencil Pleat black out curtains.

Yes, I recommend this

I am very happy with the Pencil pleat black out curtains, they are excellent quality. I bought them for a north, easterly window, on the East coast of Norfolk, they are helping keep out the cold, and also will keep out the light early morning in the summer.

I’m extremely pleased with these curtains. I brought colour blush for a spare room and they look and hang beautifully. They were reduced when I brought them which was an added bonus.

Keep out unwanted light.

Yes, I recommend this

Wish the ones I had bought had a shorter length for the width I needed. Will have turn up the hem, but otherwise I am glad I bought them, as at last, I won't get woken by the early morning light in summer or my neighbour's security lights all year round!!!

Very disappointed with these curtains.

No, I don't recommend this

I cannot recommend buying these curtains unless you can sew and are familiar with furnishing fabrics. I wish I had returned them but I had already gathered up the heading making return invalid. First of all the creasing as mentioned by other reviewers is very bad. You will need a good iron and a steamer to get them out. I had to do a lot of work on these curtains to make them look acceptable. The side hems are not straight resulting in the edges curling outwards. They have been pressed badly resulting in 'tramlines' down the outer edges. The heading tape is poor quality and is stretching where the hooks are inserted. The curtains are heavy and a deeper heading tape would be more appropriate. Part of the curtain top edge had not been stitched under the heading tape properly resulting in a frayed edge. The colour I bought was champagne but it was much darker than the photo on the website. One curtain is 2cms longer than the other. I had to reposition the header tape to shorten them and make the hems even. An absolute palaver! The curtains were bought to cover a cold window and do have adequate thermal properties.

Nice curtains.

Yes, I recommend this

The curtains came out of the packaging creased. The instructions said not to use a steam iron. I found that the creases were very difficult to get out without steam, so I used it without damaging the curtains. Once they were hung without creases they were very nice and blocked out the light from outside.

Bedroom curtains

No, I don't recommend this

Good quality material but impossible to iron out creases in material. There is an inch difference in curtain lengths, so obviously do not meet when closed! Not the normal standard expected from M&S!
