The curtains look nice, I got the light gray, which is more of a beige. They open and close smoothly. My only issue is that they are very wrinkly, I ironed them a few times but they quickly get wrinkly again. You can only tell if it’s dark outside though, when they’re open with sunlight you can’t see the wrinkles. I got them as an outside mount because my windows open on the sides, but I think they would look better as an inside mount since they stick out a bit. Overall I will order these again.
