 It works, but has flaws March 15, 2010
M. Doyle (IN)
Basically, it's just thick paper. It looks like it's plastic, even up close, but it isn't. You get 6 in the box and you have to double them up to totally keep out the light, so I have 4 in my bedroom window, which is pretty wide. It blocks out about 96% of light. Only a very small crack of light is let in from the sides of shades. I'm sure if it bothered you enough you can tape them tighter to the side of the window and totally block out all light. My biggest problem is that since they are paper, they don't stay still. Any breeze from your window on a windy or cool day will move them, allowing in more light. When it's hot and you have the a/c or fan on in your room, then they move around constantly, allowing in a lot of light. Again, they're just thick paper, so any breeze is going to move them. If you sleep in your room with zero breeze at all, then you'll be fine. If you ever turn on the fan, a/c, or heat, then you'll see them move. Since they're paper, they also get a lot of dents and stuff in them from moving around, so it's clear that they aren't going to last 5 years or anything. Also, I disagree with another review that says you can open and close these daily without a problem. They are so flimsy that I'm pretty sure they would rip within a month or more if you did that daily. They are a huge pain to deal with, so it's best to just put them up and leave them alone. I've noticed that if my fan doesn't hit them directly, they move a lot less. It's a good deal for the price, but they certainly aren't perfect.
 Great Temporary Shade March 7, 2010
Amber Beell
We bought this as a temporary shade and it perfectly fit our need. I am glad, however, that I read previous reviews because we were not surprised that it feels like it is made out of construction paper... We needed a privacy shade for our glass door before we find a nice bamboo one that we are Still searching for. This black shade may not be made of the best quality material but it stuck on very easily and has stayed perfectly for months now. I can pull on the bottom to make it longer and it is not going to unstick on the top. We cut the first one a little too much so it was great that it came with 6!!!
It does the job, well! February 24, 2010

I got these because I wanted shades to block out the sun so that I could sleep in. They definitely block out the sun. And surprisingly, these are pretty sturdy. I mean, so far they are standing up to me putting them up and down on a daily basis and I've had these for about 5 months now. And not to mention they look great. It's hard to tell that they are just paper!
Makes for good sleep, a nice dark room February 14, 2010
M. A. McAuley
I live in a small studio apartment. There are 7 windows in the one main room. I already had 3 of these shades installed on the "street side" to cut down on street light filtering in through the opaque mini blinds. Recently worked a night job, so I purchased more and hung them over the four windows on opposite side. I'm sure a thick black cloth shade would make even darker (these are heavy paper), but they still shut out the sun effectively enough for me to sleep in the daytime, and they are much more affordable! This is not a permanent dwelling for me. They last through many months of use, fairly easy to raise and lower, easy to install. Note: the adhesive will damage paint some if you remove entirely, but most landlords repaint after someone has rented for awhile anyway. We are talking a small area. I must say in my place I would prefer the look of the white Redi Shades, but I read in someone's review of those that they don't work quite as well. All in all a good, affordable product that has worked well for me.
 Good product February 6, 2010
D. Woods (Columbus OH USA)
I bought these to put in a south facing room that gets too much heat and sun in the summer. The windows aren't rectangular - top slopes to match roofline - so a metal, plastic or wood blind wouldn't work. They did exactly what I bought them for - my summer electric bill decreased by 30%. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is that the double sided tape needs to be stronger.
