Tried to twist-fold it and handle cracked

I watched a video on how to fold this up. Hands opposite directions at ends and twist while bringing hands together.The plastic handle cracked on second try. I then tried a couple of more times, and now frame is bent rather that stiff. Because of that, if you hold it with bent side facing in, it flops down forward like a rabbit’s ear.I did not force anything or press unreasonably. I only used the force necessary to normally twist the fame toward me as shown.Now I need to return this broken…

Pros
  • Good product.
Cons
  • May require additional accessories

Low Quality Plastic Handle Cracked After Use

You get what you pay for, while the reflector portion is fine, the entire purpose of this reflector is the handle and being able to shoot with one hand and hold the reflector with the other. The grade of plastic and construction of the handle is so poor that it immediately started making crackling sounds the first time I used it outside with a light breeze. Eventually the plastic began to crack and that's all she wrote, got several uses out of it. Going to buy the Lastolite version and hope…

Pros
  • Incredible speed as far as delivery..Nice
Cons
  • Can be easily damaged or punctured

Average product, good buy

This is a decent reflector for the price. The case and foldability are as good as I've seen. However, I think I may have gotten a used product as the inside white side has marks (looks like makeup but I'm not sure) in several places. I am disappointed as this was the side I truthfully wanted the most out of it. I haven't tried to wash it off yet as I wasn't sure what it would do to the fabric. It is not terribly sturdy. I think it would work well indoors, but outdoors if there was any wind it…

Pros
  • Producto viene con una mancha pero viene en buenas condiciones
Cons
  • EXTREMELY DIFFUCLT to FOLD BACK UP . Can't get it folded back up small.

A must have for my opinion

Easy to unfold and since opening it I never had to close it the size is perfect to transport, however if you are a perfectionist and professional I would recommend a larger size, it would capture more light to reflect and spread the lighting more. The value is the best thing I love, this is a must have for any pro consumer.

Pros
  • Durable -- Multi High Quality Layer and Raised Grain Design. Which Make this Reflector Service Life Almost 80% Longer Than Normal Reflector, and Reflectivity Could be up to 90% !
Cons
  • May not be ideal for outdoor use in extreme conditions

Totally happy with this so far

Totally happy with this so far! As described, arrived on time. Pay attention to when unfolding cause it's a figure 8 twist to put away. Anyone concerned with zippers. It's bendable, so push down a lil when changing screens. & the same when putting back in the bag. Be gentle all zippers will break if your aggressive! Love the handles on it too.

Pros
  • Great for reflecting the suns harmful light right back at that butthead
Cons
  • Tends to attract dust and debris

Size is Measured Diagonally

I wasn't sure if the 32 inches was measured across the bottom or if it was measured diagonally. Ordered it. the measurement is diagonal which made the reflector much smaller that I need, so I returned it.

Pros
  • With a five-in-one design, you have a variety of options to choose from for the perfect lighting
Cons
  • May create reflections that are too harsh

Great Reflector good for me

Needed this for a head shot session and had always wanted a handled reflector, so I grabbed this. Pops open and folds easily, and with the 1/4 20 in the handle, I can attach it with a clamp to a light stand with no issues.

Pros
  • The reflector is easy to fold and store away when you're done with it
Cons
  • May not be lightweight enough for some users

Great product! - my new review

This is exactly what I've been wanting! Everything is in great shape and the handles are an added bonus for sure! Can't wait to use them in a photo shoot later this weekend!

Pros
  • Portable -- Folded Size Only 24in, With a Portable Case, Suitable for Travel or Storage. Suitable for Outdoor Photography Activities.
Cons
  • May have limited color options

HUGE reflector! Measure first!

This item is of the very best quality! However, it's just SO big the it's impractical to use! If you buy this item, you will HACE to have an assistant or use a boom stand to hold it!

Pros
  • This reflector is incredibly versatile, providing you with options for reflecting, diffusing, and warming your light source
Cons
  • May require additional storage space

Silver looks Like a Sheet of Aluminum Foil

Comes w/one zippered sleeve that a is reversible. Black/White and Silver/Gold when reversed. Zippered, reversible sleeve fits over the sleeveless 24" x 36" translucent disc. I'd give it a 3.5 stars if i could but not a 4.Having previously owned and used better quality reflectors in the past, I would say that as a foldable reflector, the translucent, black and maybe the white might work well but as a sliver/gold reflector (rarely ever do I use gold), I regret not spending another $20 to purchase

Pros
  • The Selens reflector is incredibly versatile, providing you with options for reflecting, diffusing, and warming your light source
Cons
  • May not be suitable for larger groups

Positive Reviews Are Deceiving

Lost my old reflector so bought this in a pinch.Price seemed good, Reviews were very positive, and liked the handles aspect to change things up.I understand some products can be defective, but I have to admit I think this reflector is just cheap all together.The outside sleeve for the white/black/gold/silver option was folded separately, so I get to enjoy black streak stains on the diffuser. And the sleeve itself had 2 broken zippers before even opening it.The quality all together with the…

Pros
  • With a durable construction, this reflector can withstand outdoor elements like wind and rain
Cons
  • May require additional support

Works, but not good quality.

The reflector works great. It is a nice size and easily handled. However, the first time I unzipped to change reflectors, the zipper tab and the reversible slot that allows the zipper to pull on either side snapped right off. Reflector still works, and the reflector sleeve can be zipped on/off by pinching the zipper between my fingers, but the quality is lacking. Also, on second shoot, the black material near the handle is starting to rip open. I'm not certain how long it will last, but for a…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • May not be effective for every type of photography

Bought this because the description said there was a gold/silver combo side. Upon arrival, I found out that there is not. The seller was very responsive and changed the description of the reflectors. They seem really sturdy and I'm excited that I'll be able to hold them myself while on a photo shoot as well as can put them on a stand.

Pros
  • It's a great way to improve your photography skills and boost your confidence
Cons
  • May not be effective for close-up photography

Good starter reflector set

This is a nice small reflector. Although, the photo shows a number of reflectors, you get the usual one handle with a scrim and then a zip on reflector with all the other 4 colors. For the price, it is just what the beginner studio or outside photographer needs. It is a lot easier to handle than the big round reflectors because of the handle.

Pros
  • Multi-function -- 4 Color Cover and Translucent Panel Fit to Different Needs of Photography. Helping You Increase Your Photography Creation Efficiency.
Cons
  • May be too heavy for some

Great Reflectors best in my review

Just had a food photo shoot and this reflector was great. The handles were great since I was by myself. Highly recommend .

Pros
  • Lighting
Cons
  • Reflective surface may be too bright for some

Quality so so. on my review.

We needed a large reflector and this fit the bill. I like the handles. I disliked the strong chemical smell when I opened the box. It is large and hard to refold, but it can be done. I would say that quality is average to below average. The case is very thin material with a lightweight zipper. The reflector itself is made of similar thin material. This will probably last us a few years. We are full time photographers. Next time I will spend a few more bucks and get one from a US company that is

Pros
  • Product exceeded expectations. Fast response to order.
Cons
  • May require a specific angle or position to be effective

Worth the buy in my review

Overall good product, mine just came stained. It still does the job, but it is disappointing. So far I've not been successful in removing it.

Pros
  • The Selens reflector is perfect for photographers of all skill levels, from beginners to professionals
Cons
  • May require additional tools to be effective

A must have product

Sorry to not have a photo to upload, bear with me. This reflector is great, not too big. I use the diffuser (plain reflector inside zipper cover) and it is just enough to bounce light to fill shadows AND diffuse light while on a session. Very easily portable, I hold it with my left hand angled outward while I'm shooting and have my left hand supporting the camera at the same time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Pros
  • It's perfect for enhancing your photography skills, whether you're working in a studio or outside
Cons
  • May not provide enough contrast

Good quality for reasonable price.

I got it a week ago. Is perfect for for my work. Is an excellent reflector and diffuser. Is great for full body bikini shoot and I can even use it as a back ground for my Headshots. is a big reflector so on a windy day it can be little bit chalenging.But So far, I am very happy with it. You can't beat the price for 5-1 reflector!

Pros
  • Easy to Use -- Within Two Comfortable Grips on The Reflector, Allowing You to Use it with Just One Hand. Provide Better Experience Than Traditional Reflector.
Cons
  • May not meet professional standards
