Since this barely sub-splendid product is rather similar to the LUXURY 'WAFFLE' CURTAIN SET - MULTIPLE COLOURS & SIZES - PELMET - 138" BISCUIT which I took the trouble to review some time ago, and since my review of the LUXURY 'WAFFLE' CURTAIN SET - MULTIPLE COLOURS & SIZES - PELMET - 138" BISCUIT aroused such enthusiasm that Amazon had to delete my review to allow the factory to get its breath back, I thought that as a public service I should reproduce it here. Let me make quite clear that it's not so much that I deeply resent being deleted but rather that the present waffle curtain is so similar to the one I wrote about before that, while the latter remains off the market,the former is so much the next best thing that it would be churlish not to say so, with due allowance for minor differences between them, which you'd need really good eyesight to spot and a really good bulbereen-style calibration stick to measure. Purists might object that the curtaining now offered doesn't come as a set with the pelmet included, but - you know what? - increasing maturity inclines me to modify my once-avid partisanship for the humble and long-under-appreciated pelmet. Now, I'm like Uh-huh, pelmet, huh? Gedda life! But since the following review - as I have already said - was written about a slightly different product, and that product included a pelmet, and since at the time I was actually a pelmet-fan, permit me to leave in the references to the pelmet as a matter of historical authenticity.For most of us, pelmets and curtains of this stylishness are the stuff of memories of grandparents' lounges, posh holiday hotels or Hollywood film sets. This LUXURY 'WAFFLE' CURTAIN SET - MULTIPLE COLOURS & SIZES - PELMET - 138" BISCUIT, however, brings such dreams or memories within the reach of ordinary folk who, in our strife-torn early 21st century, deserve the comfort of a stylish pelmet and curtains dangling or hooked back below it perhaps even more than our parents' parents did. One of the odd ironies of the present year (Olympic year 2012) is that for the millions who will come to watch their favourite athletes compete in London, a goodly number who can afford the hiked-up hotel prices will probably awake to their Full English cholesterol-feast each morning of the competition with the gentle waffle of luxury curtains at the window, even if (as Americans or Canadians) not all will find an expected waffle on the plate. Not a few sports fans will be here mainly for the Centathlon events, however, and that is where Bulbereen comes into the picture, albeit modestly. And if this recommendation has any influence in the world, there ought to be a role too for the LUXURY 'WAFFLE' CURTAIN SET - MULTIPLE COLOURS & SIZES - PELMET - 138" BISCUIT in this most demanding of sporting events in this most magnificent of sporting festivals, at least since the mass tricycling in Mauritius in 1923.The Centathlon, as most of the world now knows, is an Olympic event composed of one hundred separate energy-expending events, in pool, track, field, gym, home, bus, beach and trees. The ultimate test of strength, speed, agility, eyesight, continence, stamina, nerves, arrogance and wealth. The final event in the Centathlon is Podium Mounting. But before we get to that, the editor of this Bulbereen Encomium has interrupted to suggest readers might first be interested to know the full list of events that make up the Centathlon, so here they are, in the correct order: 1 hundred metres sprint 2 long jump 3 high jump 4 hop step and jump 5 pole vault 6 shot putt 7 one kilometre walk 8 javelin 9 discus 10 hammer 11 clay pigeon shooting 12 putting duvet in duvet cover 13 three kilometre steeplechase 14 rock climbing 15 snooker 16 random leaping 17 half marathon 18 parallel bars 19 slightly divergent bierkeller 20 show jumping (on horse) 21 show jumping (carrying horse) 22 weightlifting -one hundred kilo snatch 23 weightlifting - the combined parents or equivalent if deceased of the IOC Chairman 24 Greek-style austerity wrestling 25 Spanish-style ditto 26 Irish-style ditto [next ten events - 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 - reserved for further national variants of ditto] 37 velodrome five kilometres bicycle (racing) 38 velodrome five kilometres bicycle (folding) 39 velodrome five kilometres bicycle (stabiliser wheels) 40 velodrome five kilometres bicycle (basket on front) 41 velodrome five kilometres bicycle (vintage BMX) 42 velodrome five kilometres tandem (racing) 43 velodrome five kilometres tandem (shopping) 44 full marathon 45 Tai Kwon-Do (done on beach) 46 pearl diving (no animals will be hurt in this event since oysters are merely molluscs) 47 kayaking (temperate) 48 kayaking (tropical) 49 kayaking (Arctic pack-ice) 50 Ballroom dancing 51 tightrope walking (another beach event) 52 twenty kilometre walk 53 thousand press-ups with left arm 54 thousand press-ups with right arm 55 golf 56 half marathon sack-race 57 half marathon egg-and-spoon race 58 crazy golf 59 cross country skiing 60 slalom downhill skiing 61 paragliding 62 tobogganing 63 diving 64 one kilometre butterfly 65 two kilometre moth 66 five kilometre stag beetlechase 67 boxing with (both adversaries wearing) gloves 68 boxing with (both adversaries wearing) mittens 69 boxing with (both adversaries wearing) Marigold(tm) Extra Life(tm) kitchen gloves 70 (both adversaries wearing not gloves, hence) bare-knuckle boxing 71 boxing with (both adversaries wearing) nail varnish 72 Thai kick-boxing 73 Norwegian spit-boxing 74 Honduran bad-language-boxing 75 orienteering 76 tennis 77 badminton 78 Real Tennis 79 squash 80 croquet 81 climbing up tree 82 staying up tree 83 climbing down tree 84 skipping (choice of soundtrack: Sound of Music, Abba, Beyoncé, George Michael, Whitesnake, Tellytubbies, Messaien, Max Bygraves, Lulu, Paul Robeson, Jean-Michel Jarré, Puff Mummy) 85 white-water rafting 86 coxless pairs 87 eating bananas (a home event) 88 archery 89 bingo (also a home event) 90 fencing (epée) 91 fencing (sabre) 92 target shooting (small-bore) 93 target shooting (even more boring) 94 target shooting fairground sitting duck gallery (with Exocet missiles) 95 cricket (indoors if raining) 96 football (soccer) 97 football (rugby league) 98 football (rugby union) 99 tiddlywinks on crowded bus, and 100, which, as already mentioned, is Podium Mounting, and consists of a leg-race, with strictly no leaping, from the end of the 99th event (to remind you, that one is tiddlywinks on crowded bus), straight or circuitously across the arena, in the full glare of TV cameras and sponsors' bankers' smiles, to the Gold, Silver and Bronze medal-winners' podium (each step of which is carpeted with gold-, silver- or bronze-hued Bulbereen, given that the competitors will still at that stage be in their protective sponsored athletic footwear), and each medal will be presented to the top three performers on large-, medium- and regular-sized cushionettes of embroidered display-quality velvet, their insides (that is, the cusionettes' insides, not the top three performers' insides or tummies) sumptuously stuffed almost to bursting with stuffing-grade Bulbereen, and the letter `B' [for Bulbereen - insisted upon by the Bulbereen Marketing Board after tense and protracted negotiations with Olympic Officials] occupying a prominent position at one corner of the upper surface, and sufficiently proud of that surface [hence the choice of embroidery as the preferred technique to be used] to glint in the afternoon sun when the world's media train their cameras on the medals and the medal-cushionettes themselves], and looking a bit like the letter below, in beautifully excessive curling style (only embroidered): though this measly symbol 'B' hardly does justice to its majestic curliness. The winner will be not necessarily the competitor who gets there first but the one who has been able to work out whether up to that point he or she has sufficient points relative to the insufficient points of everyone else taking part, and especially the other two leaders in the top three, to be able to mount the podium all the way to the top position reserved for the person who will, if he or she has calculated it properly, receive from the Pope or the Duchess of Argyle or the President of the Pot-Noodle Foundation, a hand-smelted, foot-struck and gob-smacked golden medal of achievement. The podium, itself sponsored by the Pot-Noodle Corporation, has a convenient step arrangement up which the supreme winner will climb, one step at a time, but in case you are wondering what happens if the winner is mistaken in his or her calculations, please find below a table to help you with your calculation of the finite number of possibilities. From this you can easily see that if the competitor miscalculates and stands on the step of the podium to which his or her position in the competition up to that point does not entitle him or her, then he or she will be demoted from 1st to 2nd or 3rd position or (depending on what the other competitors do) totally disqualified, or from 2nd to 3rd position or (depending on what the other competitors do) totally disqualified, or from 3rd position or (depending on what the other competitors do) totally disqualified. A lot therefore depends on having your wits about you right up to the end of the competition, but it's not acceptable, either, simply to skip some or all of the earlier events and hang around the podium so as to be sure to get to the right step in the final event because you won't then have accumulated the huge number of points needed at that point to qualify you for the risk of having them all taken away from you by Olympic Officials if you then trespass on the Dame Penelope Morgan Intestinal Parasite Research Institute Memorial Podium of Centathlonic Prowess (to give the Pot-Noodle Foundation-sponsored podium its full title, usually abbreviated to its initials, DPMIPRIMPCP - and here's a sop to all you detail-addicts out there: the DPMIPRIMPCP had has to be built to metric rather than imperial specification in order to fit the words on in a big enough font for the benefit of the global TV audience; the DPMIPRIMPCP's Dame Penelope was an aunt of the late founding CEO of the PNC, funder of the charitable PNF). If found guilty of this offence, classified Olympically as typically gross misconduct, you get your head shaved (or, if you are already bald, are obliged to wear a beret with a nasturtium attached) and towed backwards round the stadium in a small shopping-trolly with malfunctioning wheels so it keeps veering off to one side or the other (or both), while your naked though ash-smeared body is used by the crowd for target-practice with raw eggs and peanut-shells. To make sense of the following, you need to understand that in its original form the various elements were aligned in a neat table of four columns and several rows, which the format of this review absolutely refuses to accommodate; but I am sure you can get the general idea.Podium step to which competitor mounts Position s/he thinks he or she is at before mounting podium Position s/he actually is at before mounting podium Final position in overall competition, after mounting podium'1st 1st 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*Ditto 2nd 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*Ditto 3rd 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*2nd 1st 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*Ditto 2nd 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*Ditto 3rd 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*3rd 1st 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*Ditto 2nd 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*Ditto 3rd 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd* 1st*, 2nd* or 3rd*' 1st [platinum-style] GOLD,2nd [babies born with spoons of this in their mouths have no need to semi-successful athletes be as might with appropriate training win a medal made of] Silver,3rd [a little pathetic but better than nothing] bronze* depending on how it goesBut along with the appropriate prize, gong and trophy, the authorities would be well advised to add as a bonus a choice of LUXURY 'WAFFLE' CURTAIN SET - MULTIPLE COLOURS & SIZES - PELMET - 138" BISCUIT in the supreme winner's favourite colours and multiplied by however many rooms the supreme winner has in his or her house or flat or campervan. After all that exertion, he or she will have deserved nothing less.

Exactly what I was looking for, and them some. I got the chocolate brown to compliment my cream carpet (which has hints of brown).Very lightweight and not completely blackout but it still will darken a room fairly well.As you can see from the pics, Im using them as a front door curtain. The total length of my curtain pole measures 150cm/60" (30" each side) wide so I was indecisive as to whether to get 46" or 66" width but I decided to opt for the 66" as I wanted the curtain to gather as much as possible to try and block out more light, plus its always better to have too much then not enough :) I will need to get them trimmed off the bottom too as they are about 25cm too long.They have a slit

So I ordered these curtains in two different sizes meaning that they have come from two different sellers. The first ones I ordered where for my conservatory door. These came next day delivered and were packeged in proper packaging. The curtains are well made and look very nice. This set did not come with tie backs.I ordered a further two pairs which are shorter. These two pairs have come in a plain plastic bag with no branding on them at all. This doesn’t bother me but this may bother some people. These are the exact same curtains and match up perfectly to the ones that have already been hanging up in my conservatory.

bought curtains for my living room to replace my old unlined tatty curtains ,I bought them based on the reasonable price and all the reviews I read about them, and the are very nice curtains, but they let in just as much light as my old curtains did, I thought by buying curtains with a backing on them that they would be better than my old curtains ,but the backing on them is made of a material that I can only describe as similar to what tea bags are made of and don't reduce the light very well and as for thermal property's I cant comment on that yet.but for the price they are very well made and really look very nice now they are up, I would definitely recommend them certainly for decoration value but not for light reducing property's,

I honestly don't understand the negative reviews! These curtains are absolutely beautiful and very sturdy. Other buyers have complained about strings coming loose etc... There are 3 draw strings at each end of the curtain that need to be gently pulled out and knotted/secured to your desired preference of ruffling at the top of the curtain and there is also a sticker stating that this needs to be done (if you do not do this your curtains will have loose strings and fall apart). They are also packed like every other curtain on the market wether you're paying £10 or £100, One quick cold/delicate wash gets the creases right out. Also people complaining about the pull backs not being in the package,

These curtains are lovely.Must admit I bought 'used',and was quite panicked when I saw a different size on the packet from that which I ordered..On the back of the packet was the ordered size---so,i had to open and measure.Luckily,they were the size I ordered.They were bought to 'tidy up' a room for xmas,so no need not to try 'used', as the room was not on show all the time.The curtains are a lovely deep red and the material is very soft .I shall look to buy cushion covers to match/contrast.Just one little 'beware',they snag very easily----so make sure your fingernails are nice and 'even'!!! So just to say,dont be panicked and disappointed if the sizes on packet differs[we know it

For the price these are excellent curtains. Close up they look a bit cheap but once hanging they drape nicely and look very good. The 3" heading tape doesn't gather as well as cotton curtains with a 4" heading tape, but it looks ok. I bought the natural colour. I would describe it as a dark cream, or buttermilk colour rather than a light cream, but it blends in nicely with the lighter cream walls and the ivory blind we have. I also used the tie backs from the previous curtains which are lighter and look absolutely fine. I needed some cream curtains quickly without spending a lot, and these fitted the bill - they should fit most windows if we move house as well, being long curtains.

Taupe curtains, 2 pairs 90 x90. After reading other reviews decided I would order these and for the price I am quite happy. I love the colour and a lot of curtains in the 'Taupe' colour I have seen are too brown/gold and I wanted a Taupe colour that had the right shade for me which these are so am very happy with colour. They aren't the most amazing quality you can find but they are very attractive when hung up. They arrived perfectly folded and only have the packed fold lines so no need to iron. I would give 5 stars for the colour for my taste but dropped one star for the quality, that's not to say they are poor quality at all. I would buy again for sure.

I bought these curtains in the 'Natural' shade, which on arrival I would definitely describe as more of a pale gold colour. I wanted a more neutral colour but to be perfectly honest because the quality seems so good and they actually look rather expensive I am happy to keep them as they are. If you want some low priced, good quality curtains then go for it - but if you are wanting the 'natural' shade in particular it's worth bearing in mind that it's a very warm cream shade, verging on a pale yellow. Also the lining isn't black out just to clarify - but still reasonably well lined. Overall a good buy!

Very good quality and resonable price curtain.I had ordered black-out curtain on Amazon, but it was not satisfied me. So, I returned and bought this one.This curtain has specific waffle patterns that make warm and tidy atmosphere in my room. And also, it is made two layers, as you can see the second pic assistant thin curtain, to make much better and warmer than one layer. Moreover, it's not black out, but! it is enough to make my room dark as I want.I am really happy to buy this curtain and to write this fully satisfied review.

2.8.2018

I wasn't expecting too much from these curtains given the price but I was pleasantly surprised .They were bought for a spare bedroom and although they are hardly black out curtains they don't need to be for this purpose .They hang nicely ,the material has a slight sheen in the pattern which enhances them I think .They are fully lined and look as if they should have cost more than I paid . There are no tiebacks ,something to be aware of if this is important to you .Other than that an excellent pair of basic curtains .

These are lovely, bought the green which is a cross between leaf and sage green. Stuck in a difficult position in a rented flat, where the windows have been replaced and my original tracking was removed. Has a large bay, where l needed to buy two pair of different size curtains for privacy, but without the expense (as moving in a few months) Hung curtains in window recesses with extension rods, not too heavy, look really nice, affords me privacy and only cost me £45 for the two pair. Job done, and very pleased.

25.11.2015

Amazing value for money. These curtains look really good hanging up. The 'waffle' pattern is sufficient to make them distinctive, without the distraction of a competing pattern against the wallpaper that is in the room I've put them in. They are not blackout curtains, and do not claim to be so don't expect them to block out all light, but neither are they as sheer as I was expecting considering the price. A true bargain and I'm very happy with how they look in our guest bedroom. Recommend.

31.1.2018

Firstly- these are not blackout curtains by any stretch of the imagination, but I knew that from reading the reviews before I bought them. I got the cream curtains in 66x90, you cannot get 90" drop curtans anywhere else for this price, so I am very happy with them. The cream is on the yellow side, not a true cream, the waffle texture is nice and they a slightly shiny finish to them. Taking into account the price of other curtains this size, they are a real bargain.

5.9.2017

They are very nice - dark enough to sleep, even on a bright morning, very nice quality and design.However - the label says "do not iron" - and they won't just look good all wrinkled from packaging. I was hoping they will get better after hanging there for a while - but it didn't help. So I ironed them (low iron, on back side), but it was annoying to do that after already having them hanged and drawn. Anyway - now they look great.
