lovely curtains

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely curtains. i got the green shade which is a lovely soft colour. Good quality material and lining. 218cm width pair fits my 250cm wide window perfectly . Blackout lining is good in summer, can’t assess thermal feature, but guess it will be effective. Creases hanging out well. Got them in the sale so absolute bargain.

My old curtains were getting hot and retaining heat in the heatwave. These seem to reflect some of that heat back out

Nice but creased linings.

No, I don't recommend this

These were very nicely made but the linings were too creased and would never have straightened out.

A real pop of colour to my room.

Yes, I recommend this

I previously bought the same curtains but in blush pink, I thought that they would be a little pinker. So, after 2 years, I decided that it was time to change them. As soon as I saw the Terracotta I looked no further. They have added a real pop of colour to my room. There is a noticable difference with the new curtains, the thick padded blackout/thermal layer is no longer present, the new curtains have a lightweight layer, they still keep the light out, but, not the heat, but to be fair, it has been abnormally hot since I bought them.

Disappointing

I found these curtains very difficult to rate. Initially I was very disappointed. Material seems extremely thin and light. Bought 2 pairs for my sitting room and have hung one. They do hang well and look good. The blackout function appears to work, only a winter will tell if they’re any good thermally. After a few weeks I’ve good used to them and will be hanging the second pair. I’ve had several pairs of M&S curtains over the years and always been pleased with them. These however have had to grow on me.

Great curtains - more info required

Yes, I recommend this

They are nice curtains, good quality. The information in the product description needs to be clearer - is it a pair, are the widths for a single curtain or the pair? I ordered a number of packs and returned because that simple info was not there nor clear.
