Is the Charlotte shade really blackout?

Yes. The matte polyester fabric has a foam backing and is rated blackout. It blocks most light, though some glow can come around the edges unless it is mounted outside the frame.

How does cut-to-width work?

You trim the roller and fabric to your window width before mounting. Measure the window at the top, middle and bottom and cut to the narrowest figure. Cut slowly with a sharp blade so the edge stays straight.

Can it be mounted inside the window frame?

Yes, it mounts inside or outside. Inside mounting gives a cleaner look; outside mounting blocks more light at the edges.

Spot clean only. The fabric and rayon fringe are not machine washable, so wipe marks with a damp cloth and vacuum the fringe gently.

Is $9.00 a good price?

It is the lowest of the two new prices we track, $9.00 at eBay as of November 5, 2026. At that price it is cheap enough to try, but the 3-out-of-5 rating means you should check the return terms before cutting.

One shade and one set of mounting hardware. No tools beyond a drill and tape measure are included.

Our take on the Charlotte Cut-To-Width Cordless Blackout Roller Shade

The Charlotte is a cordless blackout roller shade in matte white fabric with a foam backing and a scalloped hem trimmed in rayon loop fringe. It is sold cut-to-width and 64 inches long, and mounts inside or outside the window frame. At $9.00 at eBay as of November 5, 2026, it is the lowest of the two new prices we track, far below what a custom-cut blackout shade usually costs. The 3-out-of-5 rating from 119 ratings suggests buyers have mixed experiences, so check the cut width and the fringe before ordering.

Best forBedrooms and nurseries that need full light blockingRenters who want a cordless shade without drilling a custom orderWindows where a scalloped, fringed hem suits the decorShoppers on a tight budget for a blackout window covering

Pros

Blackout fabric with foam backing blocks light and adds a little insulation
Cordless lift is safer around kids and pets and needs no cord tangle
Cut-to-width sizing lets you trim to your window rather than order custom
Scalloped hem with rayon loop fringe gives a softer look than a plain roller
Inside or outside mounting covers most window setups
Very low entry price at $9.00 at eBay as of November 5, 2026

Cons

Only 3 out of 5 from 119 ratings, so quality is inconsistent
Cut-to-width trimming can leave uneven edges if not done carefully
Spot clean only; the fabric and fringe cannot be machine washed
Fringe and scalloped hem collect dust and may not suit modern rooms
Foam-backed fabric can crease or wrinkle when rolled tight
