Sleep Better Anywhere with the Sleepout® Portable Blackout Curtain

05/14/2025

If you’re serious about better sleep, you need to try the Sleepout® Portable! I was skeptical at first—how could a portable blackout curtain really make that much of a difference? But let me tell you, this thing is a game-changer! 

From the moment I set it up (which, by the way, takes just seconds with the super-strong suction cups), I noticed an instant transformation in the room we were staying in. The 100% blackout fabric truly lives up to its promise—not a single ray of light gets through. Whether you live in a bright city, work night shifts, or just prefer complete darkness for sleep, this portable black out curtain will give you that perfect cave-like atmosphere.

But it’s not just about blocking light. The thermally insulating and sound-blocking fabric makes a huge difference, too. The room felt cooler and noticeably quieter – we did not have to worry about being woken up by street noise or early morning sunlight – essential for a good nap. 

What really sets the Sleepout® Portable apart is the high-quality, non-toxic materials. It’s GREENGUARD® Gold and OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, meaning it’s safe for your health and free from harmful chemicals like PFAS. As someone who cares about both wellness and sustainability, I love knowing that I’m using a certified safe product.

Another thing I appreciate? It’s truly portable! I was able to pack this into my carry on along with all of my toddler’s clothes and fly to Thunder Bay, Ontario for Easter. It folds up easily, and the included Velcro plates allow for extra customization to ensure zero light leakage. No more makeshift blackout solutions with towels or blankets—this is the real deal!

And let’s talk about durability. This isn’t some flimsy curtain that will lose its effectiveness over time. It comes with a 365-day warranty and lifetime expert support, which tells you how much the company stands behind its product. The suction cups are BPA-free and lock in place tightly, so you don’t have to worry about them coming loose in the middle of the night.

I have since brought this home and continue to use it in my son’s bedroom. I don’t want to jinx anything, but my son’s FINALLY sleeping longer stretches. He falls asleep faster, stays asleep longer, and wakes up feeling refreshed and well-rested. If you struggle with sleep due to light pollution, inconsistent schedules, or just want to create the ultimate sleep environment, this is an absolute must-have.

I genuinely can’t recommend it enough! If you’re ready to transform your sleep, try the Sleepout® Portable—you won’t regret it!
