Works as advertised! I live in downtown LA and also have an east facing apartment. the traffic noise can get kind of loud and at night can be disruptive. I found Residential Acoustics online searching for solutions and I took a chance on them. Not only is any sound at all barely even noticeable, the curtains also completely block out all the sunlight that used to pour into the bedroom, making it much easier to stay asleep until its actually time to wake up.

Noticeable noise reduction The curtain is helpful in reducing outdoor noise as well as early morning light. It's heavy, but the hooks provided make mounting straightforward. Raising the curtain is more work than a conventional curtain, but the straps work well. I'm a satisfied customer.

Item arrived defected, customer service only has ~10% response rate. Item arrived defected. Emailed customer service with no response for a week. Finally call answered and was asked to send back for warranty repair. Since then, no response to emails and phone calls for weeks. Ordered one month ago, still got nothing.

They Work Really Well ! I usually do not write reviews, but was so happy and surprised at the job these curtains did to block noise. We live in some houses that literally a 5 feet from your neighbors and right next to the freeway... So needless to say it was hard to sleep without hearing my neighbors outside or the rush hour traffic. I ordered enough to cover the bedroom windows and not it is literally almost silent in my master bedroom. As a light sleeper and someone who wakes up from talking or traffic, i would recommend these without a second thought!

We needed a product that would help us… turn a den into a nursery We needed a product that would help us turn a den into a nursery for baby #2 by closing off an open doorway into the room to block light & sound but still allowing us to come in and out. After learning that other methods (sheetrock, accordian doors, etc) couldnt work, Residential Acoustics was able to create a large, custom fitted acoustic curtain that we could hang and slide open and closed as needed. The curtain does a great job keep light and sound out to keep the baby asleep while still allowing air to flow. The staff were super helpful in coming up with this creative solution to our problem and getting the product to us in time! Thanks Residential Acoustics!
