The quality isn't good for the price. Pay a bit more for better.
The only reason I put up with it is:

1. The purple color instead of the midnight blue color doesn't make too much of a difference in my dark room

2. I don't want to pay for shipping to return the item because it didn't come with a curtain pole. Yes, now that I read it more carefully, it doesn't say it comes with one even though the title has the words in it

3. I've got (good) "history" with Amazon. It's $30 at [...]
4. I had a bed sheet I can use as a liner, since the curtains didn't come with a backing and bleed light as profusely as my temporary hung up bed sheet. (Z gallerie's curtains are on clearance and come with a liner on the back for a couple bucks more. Unfortunately, they didn't have a set of 2)

5. It doesn't have to be soft and smooth feeling. It's just to block out sunlight, but I felt a lot of other velvet panels that feel silky

These curtains are not very well made. There are a few imperfections in the fabric- almost like runs you would get in stockings. They do not seem like real velvet, more like a cross between fake suede and velor. They do a mediocre job of blocking the sun (but they are not advertised as blocking sun)
