If outdoor light interrupts your sleep, you may rest better using blackout or room-darkening curtains. After testing 20–using a strobe burst and a light-sensitive camera–we’ve found our favorites: the Freemansburg Solid Blackout Thermal Curtains, if you want a stylish option that blocks most light; or the Sebastian Insulated Total Blackout Window Curtains, if you need cavelike darkness (and don’t mind shiny fabric).

The best room-darkening curtains
Combining style with almost total blackout capabilities, these look better than other polyester curtains we’ve tested and come in 14 colors, more than most we found. During the day, however, they may let in some light.

Inexpensive room-darkening curtains
These come in only one length and three color-blocked styles, but they look nice, blocked more light in our tests than most, and they’re less expensive than many we’ve tested.

Silk and linen fabric gives these curtains a light weight and beautiful texture, but they don’t block as much light as others we’ve tested.
