IKEA MAJGULL Black-out Curtains review

MAJGULL is the value pick because it delivers a full pair of blackout panels for $49.99 at the 98 inch length, and IKEA Family members paid $39.99 during the promotion running until November 24, 2026. IKEA states the fabric blocks out all light and glare and pitches it at people who are sensitive to light during sleep at any time of day, which fits shift workers. The heading tape lets you hang the pair on a rod through the pocket or tabs, or on IKEA's VIDGA track with gliders and hooks. IKEA also gives practical advice for a darker room: hang the curtains close to the window, from floor to ceiling, overlapping the frame. The fabric is 100% polyester with at least 90% recycled content and is machine washable, though IKEA warns of up to 4% shrinkage and says not to tumble dry. There is no noise claim and no certification listed, and only two lengths are offered.
