This screen arrived quickly, and set-up was a dream... a dream that took 1 person and all of 30 seconds. I especially like the option of hanging it on the wall as I may use it for a second home theatre when not using it for presentations. The widescreen option is fantastic and really makes for an impressive presentation. The fact that the whole thing is self-contained (no need for a bag or case) and that is is quite light and easy to stash in trunk or store in the corner of my office when not in use is also a bonus. There is a bit of keystoning in the very center top, but in my experience it is not noticeable when you are actually projecting an image onto the screen. I am very happy with this screen and glad I opted for this over a traditional screen.

The screen was inexpensive. I did not expect perfection and did not get it. The screen will not stay down in locked position(s). This does not matter as I am weighing the entire bottom bar down and the tension seems good for the evenness of the screen.
There is a formaldehyde-like smell to screen when extended that is slowly going away. I leave the screen down w/fan and open windows all night. After 2 weeks the smell is still here but is lessened. I think it will be OK in time.
I do like the projected image very much. And the screen has a very smooth surface showing no waves after 2 weeks. I am happy with the screen as a projection surface.
However, I cannot recommend this screen. It will do for my situation. For the entire cost (less than $100 including shipping and tax) it was a good purchase (and lesson) for me.
EDIT: After about a month the smell is almost gone. The screen still needs to be secured in the down position but that is not a problem for me. I do like the

The aspect ratio on this TV is not true 16:9, it's closer to 16:10. This means any DVDs or other video source material that is 16:9 will be stretched vertically. Some people might not even notice, but I am using this TV as a cheap video monitor for editing, and I will be sending it back. It's absolutely idiotic how little thought these companies put into consumer products.
If you don't mid the aspect issue, the picture & contrast are good, motion handling and blur are average.

This screen is a really excellent value, esp. at this price (even with the shipping charge added on, since it's an odd-shaped item). I got this to use in combo with my Mitsubishi HC1500 DLP Projector and it works well (you can buy them as a combo at Amazon, though i bought my projector separately). As others have noted, sometimes retracting it can take a couple of tries, but it will roll up into the housing. The picture thrown on it is very good, particularly the Blu-Ray hi-def image from a PlayStation that we tried it with. I mounted the screen using heavy-duty shelf brackets (to bring it off the wall, in front of the backmasking) and it works really well. I used S-hooks thru the metal clips though there are screw/bolt holes as well in the housing. A quality item at a terrific price (all in, i think this ran me around $90 including shipping).

I only paid $119 for this screen! This screen is light, compact and portable. The tripod can be removed, folded and then can be placed behind the screen when it is compacted back in. There is a handy dandy nylon carrying handle that makes it very easy to carry by your side.
It is the only one that I found that has a duel screen format, 16:9 (widescreen) and 4:3 (full size). You just pull it out sideways until the first click for the full size and if you want widescreen, you keep extending it until it clicks a second time.
I do agree with most reviews about there being a slight crease in the very top middle area. This is due to the screen not being locked in tightly BUT honestly you will never notice it when there is a movie playing because it is so slight.
One more negative is the fact that the middle tripod leg is facing to the rear. In other words you cannot plae this up directly against a wall because the third leg pushes it out about 2 feet.
Overall I rated this 5 stars because

Would give 4.5 stars if this was Star Search ;)
Pros:
1) Great for portability @ ~27 lbs. When compact its 42" high and ~a foot wide. Fantastic design!
2) Clicks when you have expanded it to 4:3 dimensions, and clicks again when further expanded to 16:9 dimensions. Brilliant!
3) Picture shows very bright/dark colors well on the screen.
4) Watching a wide-screen movie without the black bars on top is a dream come true.
Neutral:
1) The stand itself is not adjustable beyond ~3 feet. So when on the stand, the screen is maxed at ~6' 4" high :( But I hear the Duet is actually taller than other portable projectors with similar screen specs so I couldn't call it a "CON."
Final Judgment:
"Saved" a lot space in the office by not having it in a fixed position. In addition, the Duet is great if you need a portable wide-screen projector screen. When folks see you expand it horizontally you'll get all the ooh's n' ahh's and words like "This is so high tech" fill the room. :)
But, if you don't

Got my big screen on friday 11th after ordering july3 wow! .for only $2.95 cent shippiing fhats only a weeks waitin folks. ive searched high and low for a screen this size everywhere on the net and just the s&h cost for most of them equals 3/4 of the price you pay for just this screen alone,eating up any savings if you find this $20-$50 cheaper elsewhere. the screen arrived neatly packaged and fully assembled which I didn't unpack until the 16th (the day my home theater seats were delivered). when i gingerly got this sucker out of the box and ready to mount iwas horrified to find that none of the screws needed to mount it were included (although the instruction manual specified which ones were needed) mounting was easy, all that was required was 2 anchors and screws one on each end of the casing. there you have it. first and foremostly, my review of this screen was based upon my panasonic ptax200u which has a dynamic contrast of 6000:1 and 2000 lumens of brightness i am going to start off

First of all, major KUDOS to Overstock.com. I love this site! I use it regularly with confidence for on-line purchases and would highly recommend it to others. Their prices are good to excellent and both product quality and speed of delivery blow me away. I requested no special delivery options, but this large, bulky item arrived within three days of ordering. I couldn't believe it when I saw the Fed Ex truck drive up.
Before purchasing this pull-down, 133" diagonal screen, I had done several months of research. I was looking for a screen with a 115" to 130" width and 16:9 viewing. I knew DaLite screens were top-quality. I was hesitant to go with another brand, but was afraid I couldn't find anything from ANYONE for under my $1000 budget maximum. Overstock sent an email obout a special $1 shipping promo. I clicked on the link, searched, and was thrilled to see four of these manual pull-downs available. With shipping included, they had the lowest price on the net. I immediately grabbed

Toshiba 19AV501U 19-Inch 720p LCD HDTV White
The tv arrived promptly. It was easy to set up and worked perfectly right out of the box. Good picture and color.

I bought this Toshiba back in May & I am still very pleased with it. I have two other Toshiba sets and I have never had a minutes problem with them. This TV has a clean high contrast picture and the sound is not bad for a set this size. I like it well enough to give it 5 stars.

Where's the extra pocket for the extra battery, memory card and charger? I want something with a zipper to hold the extra items. Not just a open pocket.

For the purpose of having an aesthetically pleasing t.v. in the kitchen - one that has to be perched on top of the refrigerator - this works just fine. The 19" screen may not be large enough for bigger kitchens but for mine it's just right. Installation and set up were super easy. It took only a couple of days to get used to the few seconds wait it takes for the t.v. to come on once 'power on' is hit on the remote. We have Dish - set up for combining this t.v. with the Dish remote was easy. Would have given it 5 stars but the audio leaves a little to be desired.

The screen was as-advertised, arrived promptly without a scratch, and is a great value for the money. We have been using it regularly for two months and are very pleased.

I use this screen with my Mitsubishi HC4900 1080p projector.
The image is fantastic. The blacks are good, the colors are vibrant, and the image very crisp on this screen.
It's not too heavy and is easy to install.

We hung our screen from the ceiling. It was easy to install and it has worked perfectly from the beginning. We are pleased with the resolution of the movies. It's a great screen for the price.

I had this screen for about a week. Good price to performance ratio. It looks fantastic in my main living room which where have trouble controlling ambient light. I am very pleased with the way it looks, but there are some drawbacks.
The drawbacks are the screen does have some wavy parts which means if you sitting way below the screen, the image can have a wavy horizontal lines (on tickers for instance). If the screen is barely above your head this eliminates most of that effect. Also when the camera pans, you'll notice the wave effect more. There are higher end screens that are tensioned to eliminate that effect.
The way they choose to retract the screen seems flawed. It isn't too bad when you get the hang of it, but at first you think the mechanism if broken. You really have to pull down and then lift up the screen very quickly. If you do it slow at all it will catch and you'll have to try again. I've gotten where I can retract the screen in one or two tries. Optoma/Panoview should

The quality of the product's construction was unexpected. It is sturdy and has an attractive design.
Quick to set up and take down. Stored it stands discreetly in the corner of my apartment. The two large black borders that double as the case of the screen were well designed.
I paired this screen with the Optoma DV11 and found it really did bring out the colours and brightness of the projected image.
A significant complaint that I have is that the top inch and a half of the screen sags. I'm still trying to find a solution to this, however overall I do not find that it affects the projected image significantly.

Having researched projectors almost to death, I finally decided on a Panasonic PT-AX200U but had done very little research on screens. Well I found a great site for information projectorcentral.com, which had very good information, but was looking at spending $1k for a screen, but since I live in an apartment I was hesitant on it. Also, you must really do your homework with the screen size and throw distance, as my projector is 20 feet away from the screen.
So, searching around I stumbled into this screen, absolutely perfect for my needs, it is very portable and easy to set up. It was very well packaged when it arrived. There is a bit of "cupping" on both edges of the screen, with the room lights on and from the side you can see it, but I have not been able to notice any distortion with pictures projected to the screen. Also, the screen is a bit fussy rolling back into the carry case, the spring just does not have enough pull. Both of these are the only faults I can find so far,

Even though it is soft, provides the perfect security for my camera. I bought it for a Kodak V1003 and it fits perfectly and have extra room for another battery and my card reader. It doesn't have space for chargers or any other type of cables but since that wasn't the goal of my purchase i'm giving it 5 stars, thought you should know anyway. :)
