For most people the Yakamok 100% Blackout Thermal Insulated Soundproof Curtains are the ones to buy, they are a true 100 percent blackout panel with an extra lined layer for thermal insulation and some sound dampening, and at 4.7 stars they are the highest rated pick here, which is why they are our pick. If you want the cheapest way in, or you have a small or short window, a kid's room, a bathroom or a caravan, the BGment short panels are room darkening, thermal insulated and sized for short windows. Want the linen look? The JINCHAN 85% Faux Linen panels block most light while keeping a soft, textured greige finish. The DWCN thermal pair is the simple value all rounder. Stepping up, the Joydeco 84 inch pair gives a heavier, more premium drape, and the Vision Home Pinch Pleated full blackout drape is the dressy, made to look custom option for a feature window, hanging in neat tailored folds.
