Best option for easy installation SungtaeGood quality compared price 5
Clips are weak need to use pegs, a hassle to open and closeMunThe plastic "clips" that come with this are extremely weak and cannot hold more than a few folds of the blind. Basically useless, so have to use my own pegs, one of those black binder paper clips would work well I think. It's also a hassle to unclip/reclip when you want to open or close it. 2

Great value, good temporary blinds.HeatherGood value, great temporary blinds, however, the plastic clips don't work well when you'd like to put blinds up. They dont fit over the thicker fold, therefore don't stay on.
Also the bottom blind needs to be stronger or plastic maybe, it wears easily after a bit of use.

Great blackout blind, good value, need to be a little wider.HeatherGood, affordable, quick to put up, blockout blind.
But it's a bit narrow for my window space and 2 blinds wouldn't work (double-window space in old house). So light comes in the sides..... check your window measurements.
The plastic clips to hold blind up - only work well if blind is down, won't fit over blind 'fold', when rolled up and really needed 3 clips per shade, not 2 only. But if you want to leave them down most of the time, they are very affordable and great temporary blinds.4
Value for moneyCynthiaThought this would be a temporary solution, but has lasted for many years5
Cheap and cheerful AnneEasy to install and use if you don’t want to pull up the blind 4
Great price, great blindMichelleNeeded a blockout blind for a wide and short window. Cut blind in half, used nano tape to put up second blind and some spare adhesive hoop and loop tape to hold it in place. Will leave blinds down for summer and put then up as the weather cools. They are working well, keeping the sun out and the room ccool. Great value.5
Blocks out sunlightKylieKeeps out the dust and truly darkens the room5
Great blindsMelissaThese blinds are so easy to install. Just measure to size, cut, peel off the asking and stick up.
Offers 100% blockout and reduces heat as well.
Perfect for renters as it doesn’t damage the window frame and can be relived easily. 5
Great blockout, but can’t stay up LaniThe material used is great quality and does a fantastic job of blocking out light (and heat!). The only downside is you can’t put the blinds up and down, because the two plastic clips provided to hold the blinds open, simply don’t work. Spotlight have temporary blinds for the same price in two additional sizes and with drawstrings for opening/closing, which work just as well as normal blinds… would love to see that applied to these blinds. I only bought this one from ikea because it was the correct size for my window… does a good job but it’s a shame you can only have it closed, not open or closed. 2

Excellent, useful block-out blindHelenThis is an inexpensive and practical solution when needing a block-out blind that can be rolled up and down. Perfect if renting. Cut to size, if necessary. Have bought a couple of these before for other windows. Bargain.5
Light filteringSarahLight filtering, clips to hold pleats open are flimsy, and don't hold very well. Otherwise it served the purpose that I needed3
Wouldn’t recommend Anonymous reviewerI applied these to my window and a day later the bottom of the blind retracted with the Velcro sticker removing all the paint from the window seal. Now I have no paint and I can’t close the blind due to the Velcro no longer being sticky. It’s a pretty useless blind now. 2
Worked really well for what we needed GeorgiaWe used it horizontally so that it was in the top part of the window. In doing so our cats can still see out the bottom half.
As it was hung horizontally, we had purchased a tension shower rod from IKEA to place under it to take away the slack and it looks quite straight / good.
The adhesive on the product has worked quite well, we had to add more velcro adhesive on to the other side because of how we hung it. 5
SCHOTTIS Blockout Blind CatherinePerfect 5
Way better than the reviews suggest ShannonHonestly, these are awesome! Not sure why people put the black side inwards, the black side faces the window. I made these fit my actual window glass not the window frame and they are perfect, so neat. The clips aren't even bad either. They do work, the glue is great, stuck to the window glass fine and they are %100 black out. I also cut mine shorter so I have to stretch them out at the bottom to attach to the Velcro strips it gives you to put where you want them, this way the pleats are flat when they are down. So there's not light shining in at all 5
Great little blindChristineThe biggest problem with it is that it very easily tears, after all it is paper. But for the price a good solve for very little money. I would only recommend for temporary use, 4
Cheap and cheerful window dressingDianaThese will do the job perfectly, if only temporarily 4
