Lifetree Blackout Window Film Privacy for Glass Windows, Black, 44.5x200cm

Putting up window cling is a 2-person job. Unfortunately, I'm one person and don't have any help. This roll of slightly stiffer, opaque cling is the first I've ever been able to get placed nicely, get the bubbles out, smooth the corners - and all with pretty minimal effort. It promises to do a great job of blocking out the worst of the heatwave, too. It'll reflect sunlight without actually making the neighbours opposite endure the glare from a one-sided mirror finish. Because it's slightly more rigid than many cling finishes, it looks quite smart once it's in place - from the inside like I had a window replaced with a PVC panel. From the outside, it's somehow less obvious than the clear, privacy-pattern cling I had in place before this one. I need more to keep the house cool this winter, and won't dream of buying a different one. For blackout window cling, this product is "it".

During a room refurb we decided that we didn't want net curtains anymore, yet we wanted the privacy protection that such afforded. And so after a bit of looking around we decided to try this one way window film. It has been a total success! I have never installed this kind of product before, but the instructions were quite clear, and the actual work required was quite simple to do. Key is ensuring the window glass is literaly clinically clean and free of any grit or other particles that will cause the film to bubble at that spot. Having done that, the film applied easily, was easy to reposition and squeegee the water out. It was initally mildly cloudy but that cleared after three days. The mirror effect is good, from outside it is impossible to see in during daylight. But you will need curtains for night time as the mirror effect reverses and outsiders can see in. Heat reduction is marked, very effective. Cutting the material requires a fresh blade in the knife ... I went for tungsten but that is probably excessive given it is only plastic material!

This film is thicker and more robust than others we have used but I particularly wanted it for a bedroom window. It has kept the room cool throughout the recent heatwave where before it was like walking into an oven. This one does make the room slightly darker, but I'm happy with that. It went on as easy as other brands but has dried out in a couple of the corners so we will have to do a refit at some point, hence the 4 stars. Overall it does what I wanted it to.

I have mixed feelings about this window film. On the positive side, it does what it's supposed to do and it's a cheap way to help protect your house from overheating on sunny days. It reflects sun's rays, keeps the house cooler and works a bit like sunglasses for your windows. You can still see outside, but people outside can't see in because the windows take on a mirror-like appearance. However, it's not a perfect solution. The film starts to peel off over time and doesn't stay in place forever. It's more of a temporary option to use during the heatwave and if you're lucky it might last a month or so before needing to be removed or replaced. Applying it can also be a bit of a hassle. You need to use water during installation and it's important to be careful because small pockets of trapped water can remain under the film. These can leave marks that may still be visible on the glass after the film is removed. Getting rid of those stains can be tricky.

Great product, hides the horrible view but still lets light in. Once you work out what you are doing, it is so easy to install. Lots of water, measure properly and a squeegee are key. It is tougher than we thought so easier to install because of that. We thought we'd try this as a temporary solution to see if we liked the look before getting it done professionally but it looks great and unless it deteriorates, there is no reason to get a professional job.

This product is very good but not any good at night. You still need to pull curtains because it becomes see-through at night when there’s a light on which I was not happy about but it is very good for daytime use like if you want to see if anybody’s coming to the house and you don’t want them to know about you.

Yeah worked a treat. Struggled at first to get the backing off but once done was ok 👍🏻

Seems like a good product and quite easy to install once you read the instructions properly (spent ages trying to get the backing peel off whilst wondering what the two little arrow stickers were for 🙄) The picture of the finish wasn’t too accurate though as the pattern on our one was a lot more coarse than it looked online. We’ll need to buy another one now but happy enough to go with the same brand as the quality seems good

Sieht super aus! Lässt sich gut schneiden und anbringen. Sieht tatsächlich aus, als wäre es in das Glas eingraviert/gelasert/wie auch immer man das nennt...

El producto es como se describe salvo que no esperaba yo que fuera de un tacto algo rugoso y que el tono de blanco no es totalmente blanco pero por lo demás todo correcto siguiendo las instrucciones de uso se adhieren perfectamente

Gemakkelijk aan te brengen en naar een paar maanden zit het nog steeds goed.

Utilizzata sui vetri della porta del bagno per evitare di mettere tendine. Funziona benissimo. Fa un bell'effetto sia dall'interno che dall'esterno e non si vede nulla! La cosa più difficile è stata tagliarla della misura giusta perché metterla è semplice. Basta lavare il vetro senza asciugarlo ed applicare la pellicola come si fa per i cellulari.

J'en ai mis sur toutes mes fenêtres donnant sur la rue, ce produit est conforme à mes attentes. Voir sans être vu, atténue le bruit des voitures, et empêche la chaleur du soleil. produit top, la pose est facile, mais il y quand même des petits plis, mais c'est minime. Je recommande ce produit.
