Review on 🎬 Elite Screens Tripod B 85-INCH 1:1 – Lightweight Manual Projector Screen with Foldable Stand – 4K/8K Ultra HDR 3D Ready – 2-Year Warranty - T85SB by Evan Austin

Why can't anyone make GOOD quality?

I have a large 113 inch screen, it's large and 7 1/2 feet tall when closed so you don't have to put it in a closet in the hallway. It's very light for its size. Easy to carry except the handle is not the center of gravity when closed so keep the riser directly behind the handle. Can be carried in one hand. The top hook attaches to the end of the screen case, but you will need Velcro to attach the legs to the case. Although everything is metal and the legs are metal, it feels like they've designed the bare minimum of metal to use and still maintain some integrity. If I take care of it and only use it for family rides a few times a year it will probably last a long time. But if you're taking this to events I don't think it's strong enough to last long. A 2 year warranty is good but given the minimal external quality I am concerned about the durability of the retractor screen springs. I also predict that the thumb-lock mechanism will fail the test, rendering the screen unusable. The product arrived with a notch on the screen body and a top hook on the riser. Then I discovered that the top hook has an extension (to compensate for keystone distortion) held in place by a tiny piece of plastic connected to the broken off top hook. I was willing to ignore this since the projectors have keystone correction and didn't care about the dimple, but as soon as I lifted the screen, a small gray streak ran down about 12 inches from the right side. It's easy and I could probably live with that, but I don't have to. What happened to quality control and quality assurance?

Except for it being heavy, everything is great.
