Most difficult installation but worth the money

Small fairly portable softbox. Get the job done with confidence. Don't even think about breaking it if you do, and you could probably tell from the video that you can't push a button and even fold this thing up. But for the price, it has dual coverage and is small enough for most in the studio. and about location applications. I am very happy with my purchase

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Empty

Good for the price.

That would have been 5 stars but the first one sent was already open, parts were missing and some parts we bent and snapped. The second one sent as a replacement was great! I would not recommend taking it off and traveling. Once you've assembled it carefully so the pieces don't snap, it might be best to just leave it alone. Great for the price, but not top quality. 4 stars for the price and the quality matches the price.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Great price and NOT difficult to assemble

Assembled in minutes and took several portraits straight away. Yes, it requires some skill, but it's actually not as hard as some reviews claim. Just follow the video instructions. Nice solid softbox and Bowens sure fits my Neewer Vision5 flash light. The light is evenly diffused for some really great outdoor portraits. Overall excellent quality from Neewer again. My only complaint is that the external diffuser doesn't include Velcro, but I just added my own to keep it secure while recording.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Negative impression

Nice little octobox

I'm new to this field so I can't compare the softbox to others. Based on my research, this is one of the most affordable octoboxes of its size with a bow mount included. The quality of the box itself seems to be good. The product comes with removable inner and outer diffusers which is very good - one of the reasons I didn't get the parasol version. Easily attaches to a studio flash or external flash mount. The softbox comes with a thank you card that says 1 year warranty. As already mentioned…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Style 90

The NEEWER Softbox is inexpensive but difficult to assemble

This might help some of you in your build. The softbox is fairly durable, comes with an internal and external diffuser, is not foldable, and comes with no assembly instructions (at least in my case). Begin assembly by defining the large and small ends of the rods. The small ends go into small pockets along the inside edge of the canvas dome. However, you must first thread each one through the elastic loop just below each pocket. Once in place they form the spokes of the wheel. The other end of…

Pros
  • Complete Set
Cons
  • So far so good

I have several Bowen mount octaboxes including a 36" NEEWER version and a 47" version. THEY WERE ALL MUCH EASIER TO ASSEMBLE THAN the 24". The 47" is actually an umbrella design, no Bowens mounts (even easier to use). In contrast to square or rectangular soft boxes, octa boxes set rounded accents in the eyes. They also ensure a more even distribution of light. The NEEWER 24 inch octa box is great, very portable, durable, well designed and I will NEVER break it. Why do I recommend the big box…

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • negative present

Love it, does everything I expected especially for the price

Under $30? How can you defeat him? And I'm really impressed with its build quality. Looks very sturdy and I think it will last a long time. Comes with a powerful Bowens mount that easily fits my small COB LED light. This is a great addition to my set. I read the reviews before purchasing and was a little concerned that this would be difficult to build. But it took me less than 10 minutes, maybe closer to 5, to assemble it from scratch. It wasn't as difficult as the reviews people led me to…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Non automatic

Great product for its size 👍

Installation is not difficult at all if you first install the poles in a criss-cross pattern and then add the remaining poles. If you try to go through the diameter you will find that the last bar or two is very difficult to insert. I'm a professional photographer and also a videographer, so I always use lighting equipment and I have a lot of options. So this is one of the many tools I needed when I wanted soft light for my smaller Godox LED light. Now at least with LEDs, with only an external…

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old
