Review on Duo Board: Versatile Double Sided Backdrop for Professional Food & Product Photography - Legs Included | Made in USA (24 x 24 inches, Aged Cutting Board/Butchers Board) by Jasmine Harris

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Beautiful appearance but fragile, difficult to assemble and too expensive.

First the pros: It's a good quality photo and it makes a nice, albeit small, background that can easily be used in a small space (which I need as a background for photos of flower arrangements) and has the Ability to provide two backgrounds, which is nice. Now for the cons: Note that the price is for a reversible board. So if you want two sizes, you'll need to buy two and connect them with the included lightweight plastic L-connectors. The panels are VERY difficult to fit and align in the joint slots. And since the boards are light and quite thin, I was afraid throughout the process that trying to fit and align the boards into the joints I would break a corner. Arrived at the joints, the vertical board didn't sit flat and there was a gap in the bottom/horizontal joint. I haven't attempted to use the rig outdoors but I'm sure it won't take more than minimal wind. Finally, and worst of all, both boards turned out to be defective. One arrived with what appeared to be a 9-10 inch slash (or maybe it was a misprint) and the other had a punched hole and lots of tears. will not replace them Conclusion: It's a great concept, but poorly implemented and overpriced.

Pros
  • DOUBLE LEGS INCLUDED: Insert one board as a background or use with two boards.
Cons
  • Makes me angry
