    I like the S bracket.

    I am very happy with this S-Bar, it doesn't look cheap or flimsy and just gets stuck in the flash. The softbox is the same as other softboxes I've bought, nothing special but not bad.

    Pros
    • Dope 🔥
    Cons
    • Empty

    Almost perfect for photographing and photographing

    I like the large softbox which offers excellent light diffusion and control. The only improvement I would make would be to move the flash away from the diffuse material more easily so I can get more coverage with more light output.

    Pros
    • Glitter
    Cons
    • Protection

    WARNING: Falsey is advertised in size

    The product itself is excellent and of good quality, however it would have been rated higher (4-5 stars) if it was the actual size as advertised. It says 32 inches but is actually just over 28 inches. Isn't false advertising and misleading consumers illegal?

    Pros
    • Consistent test results
    Cons
    • Reliability

    Ok soft box. no corner Cheap mount

    The softbox does not tilt at all. A very cheap plastic bracket and screw to keep the shade from ripping off the first time. I tried several times to message the seller but the "seller" keeps changing and he replies "I have no purchase from this letter." not happy at all

    Pros
    • Super price
    Cons
    • Nothing

    Great starting point

    This is a great starting point for those who want to take portraits and give off good soft light, but the zip isn't long enough and interferes with the lighting stand at steeper angles, making it difficult in my experience for more dramatic shadows how to get Rembrandt.

    Pros
    • Hands-free
    Cons
    • Approximately

    Really good set with this duet.

    This soft box is ideal for illuminating portraits. It's big enough to be used for full body shots. The cover goes through the stand so it gets even closer to my flash. The bracket mount is a secure mount. Sturdy handle, doesn't push too hard, screws in easily for quick insertion and removal. Really good set with this duo.

    Pros
    • Complete set
    Cons
    • Negative impression

    Good quality soft box. The only complaint or recommendation would be .

    Good quality softbox. The only complaint or recommendation would be that the white liner would be a bit denser. It's still a bit loose after the velcro, but works just as well. Otherwise I am very satisfied with the product.

    Pros
    • Feels good
    Cons
    • New competitors have appeared

    A few bad things!

    This box doesn't tilt forward so you won't get a 30 degree angle to the object! I redid the softbox with other parts I had and it worked better! You also need a rear hitch! This gives you access to your flash without having to take it apart! The modifier is well built and I will be using it for some of my upcoming shoots, but I will say my Neewer back mount 32" softbox is 10x better!

    Pros
    • Easy to read control panel
    Cons
    • Appearance

    Very glad I bought this.

    I'm a photographer but still don't have a lot of money for gear. I have had many Neewer products over the years and have always felt that they are value for money and that's about it. For around $40-$45 you can get a Bowen flash mount (it's $15). it actually has some weight and doesn't seem super cheap even if most of it is plastic) and you get an octobox dome screen and diffuser plate. I'd rather have it with a mesh but you get what you get. This is the best? No, but you have to spend A LOT…

    Pros
    • Quality construction
    Cons
    • Requires power outlet
