Review on 40-inch Impact Foldable Beauty Dish by Chrissy Ramirez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Gives good light but breaks easily.

Mine broke on first use just as pictured but the company took good care of it and sent me a replacement. As it broke before I even hung it in the light I have my doubts it will last very long unless treated very lightly. I unrolled it and just carefully dropped it on the soft grass no more than 6 inches off the ground and leaned it against my stand. When I came back to pick it up one of the rods was broken. The bars are just too brittle unless they're redesigned. If a tiny drop on soft grass breaks it up, it will be completely destroyed if your base ever falls off with the base attached. It's also listed as 'discontinued' on Impact's website, possibly because it's not durable at all. I have other Impact products and have been happy with them, but this one is a piece of crap. It gives off a nice light when used (in my temporarily fixed DIY mode) and is relatively cheap, just be very careful with it.

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Almost everything there
