3.0 out of 5 starsIt's alright

For the price this is an alright projector screen. It's very compact once folded up, unfortunately it's the only thing I really liked about it.
During setup assembling the stand is easy, the rest is best done with 2 people. In my experience, while clipping in the second side of the screen the other side could easily fall off of the mounting bracket. If this does happen to fall off then the screen can get creased fairly easy, the creases are also noticeable while viewing. Takedown is easier than the setup, but you need to be VERY careful with the screen. Again, 2 people is best for this. If the screen folds in anyway it can leave a visible crease in the screen.
As far as picture quality is concerned I wasn't too impressed. I purchased the ALR variant, and with my projector (Epson EF11, 1000 ANSI Lumen) I noticed a very noticeable hot spot in the picture. This hotspot would move around as I changed my viewing angle and it resulted in a very distracting viewing experience. The lower center of the picture was extremely bright while the edges were more dull. The result was the same during daylight with the blinds open and closed, night time with lights on and off. As other reviewers have noted there are waves in the screen probably from being rolled up.
Overall if you're looking for a small, compact and portable projector screen this still isn't a horrible product. I would make sure to setup and takedown with 2 people to minimize any damage done to the screen. I would also suggest purchasing the non ALR screen as it might give a better picture than what I experienced.
