HIDBEA One Way Privacy Window Film,Heat Blocking, Black,35.4in x 8.2ft

Very effective! I bought this to help cool down our pool room. The sun beats through the sliding doors all afternoon as well as reflecting off the pool. I bought the black/mirror and it really helps keep the room cool while reflecting the sun. I will definitely be buying another to do the other side. I like that it is a window cling and not like auto tint that is hard to remove. Easy to adjust, cut, and it came with a helpful squeegee.

This was very easy to install especially after watching the installation video provided by the QR code on the instructions. The hardest part for me was finding a surface large enough to lay it out to cut it! I find it a good quality, good value for my money and definitely worth the purchase. One reviewer said that the corners wouldn't stick, and I had the same problem but once I cut the film to give a 16-in clearance up in that corner it worked fine. That was a recommendation on the installation video. I suggest you follow it. Another reviewer said that there was no protective film on the back and while it is very difficult to get the edge separated and start to remove, it is there. I was amazed at how dark it made the window but yet everything on the outside was clear, not blurry like they show in the product photos. The picture I attached shows the top part of the blinds down but you can see how much darker the window is - much darker than the screened window below it. I went outside and took another picture and while it's not completely mirror like, it's not a sunny day either so I don't know how that's going to affect the view. Standing outside I could see the blinds rather than a complete reflection like a mirror. I'm not sure that I would be happy with it on a window that didn't have blinds or curtains but in my application it's absolutely perfect. Overall, great product and I would highly recommend it.

I bought the Black-Silver, 35.4 Inch x 16.4 Feet. My new master bedroom and walk-in closet are upstairs and the windows face east. It was getting really warm first thing in the morning when I'd get up at 8 am and only got hotter throughout the day. After installing the window film, it was immediately noticeable how much cooler it was. The next morning wasn't uncomfortably warm when I got up and it stayed cool throughout the day. Best part - I can still see the view I paid for. Added bonus - my neighbors can't see in during the day. Even up until dusk, it remains reflective. I've installed window film many times before, usually frosted. This is the same - apply lots of solution to the window and to the film when installing. Even with my OCD and perfectionist tendencies, it's almost impossible to not mess up somewhere and cut a little too small. My only suggestion, wrap something soft around whatever you use to squeeze the bubbles out. I bought the Gila install kit and the yellow plastic thing easily left tiny scratches everywhere on the film. I wrapped a paper towel around it, but wish I would have grabbed one of my microfiber cloths, as there were still slightly noticeable scratches. My only complaint (and why I'm docking a star), is that there is tape holding the roll shut that does not peel off cleanly, ultimately leaving 6" of unusable film that you have to throw away. It doesn't seem hard to use a painters tape quality tape that peels off cleanly, especially since they put the whole tube in a plastic bag to help keep it from unrolling.

My storm door is fully glass with the top glass functioning as a window. I love leaving it open for air but I didn’t like that everyone can see Straight into my living room. I was also getting the strong sun rays which was kinda defeating the purpose of letting the air in through the door window. This product has really solved my problem. First off it was super easy to install, it included everything you need for installation. First, I cut the film to size, next I used the mini spray bottle it came with to spray, then I placed on the film - shiny side facing outside, and lastly I used the scraper it came with to take out all the bumps. It was so easy and came out really nice! The film is easily removable, and can easily be reinstalled. My baby pulled it off my door twice. I just repeated the installation steps and it looks good as new. One thing to take note of is the privacy tint only works in day time. I installed at night and thought I did something wrong until I read the title “Daytime reflective mirror”. If you’re looking for some privacy on your windows or just want to keep the sun out in the summer I highly recommend this product!!!

Not very clear. It advertises as clear view - from the inside to outdoors. I had a film put on another window 5 years ago, can't find the manufacturer, and compared to that window the current one with this film is much darker and murky looking. Reflectivity outside is fine; ease of installation is fine. Just don't expect a clear view out. I would have returned but it's already installed.

Summer in the hot and humid southeastern US can be brutal! Our kitchen and living room windows get beat on by sun and can make the house warmer than we prefer. Our ultimate goal is to replace our windows, but for now, this is our solution! The window tint was so easy to install- what others said about the more water you spray, the easier to install is spot on. Instantly my room was darker and cooler (the ultimate outcome!). I only planned on doing this to our 4 kitchen windows, but the results were great and I tinted 2 living room windows that let in the most heat and our master bedroom. Results in all spaces include real temperature change! Our installation happened to coincide with our electric bill, so next month’s bill will reflect how this may reduce our electric costs. Overall, excellent product, very easy to install, absorbs light well, creates a “mirror effect” from the outside looking in (so there’s a strong element of privacy, if someone desires that). We can still see outside clearly too. This has been a great choice for reducing summer heat.

Easy to use and works well. I wanted to help reduce the heat from sun in my shop and add privacy without losing light or having shades to clean. This did the trick nicely. You will need a large surface to prep and cut if you are putting it on large windows. Prep your glass and make sure it is clean clean! My photo shows the inside, the darker section is doubled up as the window is open. The outside is mirrored and works great during the day. At night you can see right through it if you have a light on inside.

Stiffer than other film I've purchased probably because of the mirror side. However it was very difficult for us to install and the bubbles are almost impossible to remove due to the stiffness. Not very flexible. Quite a few scratches and folds in it. Would go with the opaque film next time, which is much more forgiving and it looks so much better. I got the silver/black because it was for a front storm door which gets very hot in the afternoon and I was looking for the uv protection. We shall see how it looks with the heat on it all afternoon. UPDATE after 24 hours: It noticably has UV protection which was a huge plus for our front door with both heat and light. I increased my review 1 star for that, however it still doesn't look good up close with the bubbles and the few noticeable creases. I will likely remove it this winter due to the disappointing flaws.

Mauvaise qualité et donc compliqué à installer

I like it

Impossible to install without bubbles and scratches.
