My company needed something small to fit under most patio covers so we opted for the projecto screen. the first time assembling was a little hard since the material had not been strecthed before so it was hard to line up the buttons to snap in. after the 2nd time things get easy and the frame itself is very simple to assemble. I knocked down 1 star because the ratio is not 16:9. when your image meets the top and bottom of screen, the sides will have abou 2" on each side of blank screen. i would of returned it but i was doing a gig that weekend. uin the end nobody seemed to mind at all. so im keeping it.

I got this projector to use as a review screen for video work as well as for it's portability to show work publicly. Combined with an HD projector, this is a great piece of equipment to review how work plays on a screen of this size, and this screen is great for public display. The weather resistance is a nice feature as well for outdoor use.

It is being used in a backyard set-up and it is great.

I use this mainly as a home theater screen. The screen is very taught on the frame and looks great! I only question if maybe over time the snaps might tear through the screen because it fits nice and tightly on the frame. The manufacturer has a long warranty anyway, so I assume if anything happened it would be covered anyway.

I purchased this screen for our annual neighborhood block party movie. The setup was straightforward and easy. I almost didn't need the instructions! (but I did refer to them to make sure I was doing it right) The numbered arrows on the tubes made putting the right sections together a snap.

Once the screen material was stretched on the frame, all of the folded creases disappeared except for one remaining fold line which ran horizontal through the middle of the screen. I was told later by Visual Apex customer service that this line would completely disappear if the screen is allowed to sit in direct sunlight for a bit. I did not have direct sun at the location I was setting up at, so this line remained. But once the movie began, this line was not noticeable at all. I did notice however, that the image from the projector was cropped at the top and bottom a bit by the black frame that surrounds the white screen. In other words, the screen could have been a bit taller to perfectly fit the projected 16:9 image.

Once the outdoor ambient light got dark enough, the picture projected onto the ProjectoScreen 120 of the movie THE LORAX from my EPSON 8350 projector via my OPPO BDP-95 Blu-ray player was sensational!! People were voluntarily commenting on how beautiful the picture was!

Bad luck strikes:

The movie had completed and breakdown was underway just as a very strong freak gust of wind blew! I had put sand bags on the legs, but had not attached the anchor ropes that came with the screen. The wind blew the screen down and in doing so damaged the connections to where the main frame attaches to the legs. The screen material itself was fine. One of the leg connections actually tore through the aluminum frame. I initially thought, NO WAY any company is going to replace this because of the freak nature of the accident.

One call to Visual Apex and they promptly sent me new replacement pieces to cover the damaged ones!! This Is Customer Service!!

Things I have learned about the ProjectoScreen 120:

1. The screen is easy to assemble. (Help from a friend is a good idea, but not critical)

2. The screen can produce a fantastic picture as long as a high quality projector and source is used.

3. If possible, leave it in the sun after assembly to remove the horizontal crease. (although this did not distract)

4. The aluminum frame construction is high quality and precision manufactured, but not impervious to strong wind. Using the provided tie-down ropes is a must!!! In fact, had I NOT used the sandbags on the legs, the screen may have just blown down without damage. The weight of the sandbags on the legs created a twisting effect when the wind blew on the screen unsupported by the tie-down ropes which anchor the screen from the top. Sandbags are a good second measure, but make sure you use the tie-down ropes first! I cannot state with 100% certainty, but I would bet that had I had the ropes in place, the screen would not have been damaged.

5. Visual Apex is the best and stands behinds their products!
