Curtains in your rig ?

Just taking a straw poll. What is your take on curtains in your camper be TT,5thwhee,or MH? I just took down mine to do some work in my 5ver and it looks at least 25% bigger and 50% brighter. I still have blinds so I'm seriously thinking of keeping them down. I know it's to each their own, just trying to see what the general consensus is.

  • We had curtains in our old Scotty trailer - they were fine. Our present trailer has blinds on the windows in the living area and shades in the bedroom and bathroom. I wouldn't change it - very functional - better than curtains.
  • We have black out curtains in our yes it makes it smaller looking but it is so nice in the mornings.
  • I had curtains in my TT and roller blinds in my MH. I like the simplicity of the roller blinds - quick pull, they're open; quick pull, they're closed. I always seemed to catch the curtains on the rod when I'd open and close them.

    I wouldn't bother with blinds AND curtains.
  • All of the new ones have blinds. Even though curtains are easier to clean, just throw them in the wash, the blinds do open up the space. We prefer blinds.
  • Most I've seen have just blinds of some sort, no curtains. Our roller shades are getting in poor shape so I've thought about changing out to curtains but wondered how it would look.
