Hello, Thank you for your review. Your feedback is important to us. We try to heavily express that the Bamboo Tan Reed Fencing Panel is not a privacy fence. "Even though Reed fence is not designed to be used as a privacy fence, we suggest using multiple layers of Reed fencing to add more coverage to your space." But this does not take away from the functions that we have applied to the listing. Perfect to use as a divider, to cover unattractive old fencing, to hide your unsightly pool equipment, or use as a garden screen to create spaces. Excellent for indoors or outdoors, use it as trade show backdrops, convention events, kids' rooms, Hawaiian parties, and most any tropical-themed oriented design. Again, we are sorry you were dissatisfied. If you wish to return feel free to reach out to our friendly customer service team. Best regards, Backyard X-Scapes
