[Help] O/T - Best blackout blind for standard window? Advice please?

[Goldstone1976]

I've got a bedroom window which I want to fit a blackout blind to. It's 170cm wide and has a 115cm drop. It's in a recess which is 10cm deep all the way around - so plenty of space to fit whatever gubbins come with the blind that I need to.

I'm after a recommendation for a brand - it needs to be a) full blackout, b) easy to fit.

TIA...

I used this company for conservatory windows. Easy to fit and full blackout. Lots of colour & style choices as well.

Don't know what you need it for but if it's a temporary/occassional use thing these are great:

We have them for our daughter when we go on holiday, they cover the whole frame and come in various sizes, with a big sucker holding them in place.

funny, we Brits spend our lives moaning about a lack of sunshine, then when we have it, we try to black it out ?

Ours is from John Lewis. They have a nice selection Can order online.

I love the sun, but not when it wakes me up well before my alarm goes off.

I’d really recommend these, they have a track so are close to complete blackout.

This leads me inextricably to the punchline for one of my favourite jokes ever.

"Nice tits. Now where do you want these blinds?"

I work nights generally so needed a dark room to sleep in so I just pinned a sheet of hardboard against the window and then put my wardrobe in front of the window. No bleed, perfect pitch black.
