This is a good choice for an inexpensive manual gray screen. I paired it with a 720p LCD projector to enhance the perceived contrast. The picture looks great – though this is my first screen and I have no basis of comparison. The whites are acceptably white and the blacks are improved by the gray screen surface.
Negatives: The metal case came out of the box with a dent and several scratches on it. This did not affect the screen’s performance, and it is not too noticeable from a distance. Also, the screen does curl a bit on the left and right edges, but this is not a distraction for me.
All in all, I consider this screen a good deal for the price.

I don’t have very much experience with projection screens, as this is the first one I’ve ever owned. But as far as I can tell, it’s a great screen. The resistance when extending it is pretty good, I guess, since I can get it to stop just about anywhere. Video and photos look fantastic, but again I don’t have much to compare it to.
Installation was very easy. Two screws in the wall, hopefully level and lined up well. I climbed on a stool with a pencil and a screwdriver (drink) and a screwdriver (tool) and was able to get the damn thing hung all on my own. I only spilled a little bit, and even that was just on my sleeve so I was still able to drink it. Not too shabby.
Go ahead and get yourself one. It’s a well-built screen (I think) and the price is great. So why not, right?

Premium quality for the price.
Image is good
Built is reasonable.
Mounting very easy if you take your measurement right the first time.
I pulled it down once, and it is still there.

I have been using this screen for little over a year now and during this time I have moved to a different place as well. So, I can comment on both the durability as well as the display quality of the screen for my 720p Panasonic LCD projector.
My projector is about 4 years old and while the overall picture quality is still good, the contrast is not as good (as you’d expect in a 2005 model). Before this I was using a DYI screen made with a Home Depot particle board and paint as advised by many in AVS Forum. While this was much better than the dry wall, I was still not getting as good picture as my projector was capable of producing. And also I wanted a screen that would enhance the contrast without degrading the brightness as well as have wide viewing angle so that viewers can sit anywhere in the room.
This screen has met all my expectations. The blacks are darker now and the brightness has also increased compared to my DYI screen making the picture pop out and more realistic. Even though the specs are not as good, I still enjoy my 4 year old projector more than my high-end PN50B850 plasma TV, even though the TV is quite good. It’s probably due to the sheer size of the screen (106″) that makes the movie experience more like a theater one. For sports during the day, the screen/projector combination is quite bright if I reduce the size to about 80″ or so, which is still much bigger than my TV.
About durability of the product, the internal spring is still working well even after at least 200 uses. I even keep the screen hanging for weeks at a time and so far no issues. We also moved to a different place and I don’t see any issue even after the move. I’d recommend this screen to anyone who is looking to get the best picture out of a mid-range projector in a near-dark room.
