Not perfect, but has potential

So it's definitely big enough and relatively easy to assemble, but those solid backdrops are rolled up tight and I really struggled to keep even one of them in place. I ended up having to seal and weight it with tape to keep it from rolling back. You could all think about how to send the backgrounds flat, even if that means folding. Anyway, I'll probably just use cloth instead of fighting giant plastic sheeting. The lighting works well, but it turns my blacks too silvery, which can be problematic. I haven't had a chance to use it as intended because it's not exactly what I expected. The frame is light and needs proper support or the floor will sag and twist (unless it's on the floor). I recommend having a table or counter that is at least 3 square feet or will be unstable. I probably would have sent it back if I hadn't spent so much time getting it to work for me. And again it has potential if I can adapt it.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • A chore
