Review on πŸ–₯️ Optimized Epson Duet Dual Aspect Ratio Projection Screen - 80 Inches by Greg Cunningham

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not without flaws but good quality portable projection screen

This screen comes with instructions, tripod, wall mounting plate and mounting hardware. I was looking for a high quality but portable projection screen to use in different areas of my home. After struggling to order another brand, I settled on a well-known brand and after finding a good discount at Epson Duet, I bought this one. While I'll be using it primarily as a home projection screen, it's also a good screen to work with. While I don't think this screen is perfect as it has a few small imperfections, I consider the price and for a portable screen it's a good quality screen with a unique design. I like the fact that it's compact and folds into its own carrying case that's about 43 inches long and less than 8 inches wide, making it easy to use and move around. vicinity. The screen with stand weighs 25 to 30 pounds. While I wouldn't call it lightweight, it's fairly easy to maneuver and carry from place to place using the handles. It can also be wall mounted with a bracket, but I prefer being able to move it. The screen really only takes a minute or two to assemble or disassemble with just a few steps. The screen can be mounted in any direction depending on whether you want the screen low or high, although it looks best at a maximum height of 33 inches off the ground. The white screen has low gain but is bright and can't really project the image onto the screen very well, especially in the dark. Lighting is good too. The design differs from most screens as you open the screen from side to side instead of pulling the screen up or down on a hanging bracket. The screen expands to a 65" 4:3 screen (on the first press) and to an 80" 16:9 screen on the second press. The screen is large (especially when it's fully open) and is great for projecting TV shows, movies, or my laptop onto the screen for work-related work. The stand itself is made of plain metal, which is fairly light considering the size of the screen, but is very durable, holds the screen well, and is very stable when fully extended. The screen itself moves a bit if you bump into it, but otherwise it holds up well. It can be used outdoors, but it is not suitable for particularly windy days. As I mentioned earlier, this screen is not without its flaws. The top and bottom of the screen curve a bit, and the top has a slight curve due to the lack of support at the very top of the screen. This isn't very distracting though, as there's enough real estate on the screen so you're not projecting into those areas. There's also a small line down the middle of the screen where it folds. This is noticeable when nothing is projected onto the screen, but disappears when a projector shines on it. These two things are minor annoyances but not the most important in my book. The top deflection can be corrected with a little velcro if that bothers you enough, but for me it's not really necessary. Pro's Compact and portable, easy to carry. Good quality. Sturdy tripod at top and bottom of screen Sagging at top of screen Small line down the middle Not good for windy days May sit too low for some (maximum height 33 inches from the ground) Overall this is a good quality screen that's worth it I fit less home use and things related to work. Not without flaws, but decent overall. 4 stars
