YoungsTex Extra Long Velvet Blackout Curtains 90 in Length - Olive

In this review of the YoungsTex Extra Long Velvet Blackout Curtains 90 in length, the bottom line is clear: these drapes are best for anyone who wants a rich, tactile upgrade to a living room or bedroom that also reduces incoming light and adds insulation. The set includes two heavy velvet panels that feel soft and look luxurious, and their 90 in length is ideal for taller windows or floor-to-ceiling installations. While they are not absolute blackout panels, the dense velvet and darker olive green color do a good job of dimming daylight and improving privacy.

Key Features

• Set Contents: The package includes two velvet curtain panels, which makes it simple to outfit a standard window with matching coverage and a consistent look.
• Extra Long Size: Each panel measures 52 in wide by 90 in long, suitable for tall windows, sliding glass doors, or rooms needing full-length coverage.
• Grommet Top: Each curtain has eight silver metal grommets with a 1.6 in inner diameter, allowing easy hanging and smooth sliding on most curtain rods.
• Luxurious Fabric: The high-quality velvet has a rich texture and subtle sheen that elevates decor and creates a cozy, festive atmosphere for living rooms or bedrooms.
• Light Reduction and Insulation: Dense velvet fabric reduces strong light and helps insulate against heat and cold, improving comfort without claiming total blackout.
• Easy Care: Panels are machine washable on a gentle, cold cycle and can be tumble dried low or hung to dry, with low ironing recommended to restore smoothness.

Who It's For

These curtains are well suited to homeowners and renters who want a quick aesthetic upgrade with functional benefits: a plush velvet look, added privacy, and some reduction of daylight. They work especially well in living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms, and home theaters where a softer, darker window treatment complements the decor.

Shoppers seeking absolute blackout performance or technical thermal ratings should look elsewhere, as these panels are described as light-blocking but not full blackout. Also, if you need an exact color match under all lighting conditions, note that velvet pile can shift slightly with light and weather, so expect subtle changes in tone.
