Elite Screens PicoScreen Series, Light-Weight Pull Up Manual Projector Screen, 45-inch 16:9, Portable Table-Top Pull-Up Home Theater Movie Office Classroom Fiberglass Projection Screen, PC45W, Black

I do professional development presentations using some PowerPoint in a wide variety of settings. Some rooms have build int screens, a blank white wall and others have nothing on which to project slides. I hate lugging around a traditional screen - ti's cumbersome, heavy and takes up space. Many of my audiences are 20 or fewer people. I found this screen sits easily on a window sill, a conference table, bookcase or any number of narrow surfaces. It folds up like a window shade with springs in the back. Pluses: Ease of handling, reflective surface - works great in a modestly bright room with the lights out; adaptability; reasonable stability; compactness & carrying case. Cons: projection system (I use a standard size In Focus) needs to be closer to screen for image to correct size; would not work well in windy area; less stable than full sized screen with legs. For my needs, I cannot say enough. I've used in a dozen different situations and it has proven itself to be worth its weight!

We bought 2 of these screens...perfect size for our business out in the field. After a few uses, the screen ripped on the top, so I reached out to the company and they said they would replace it, and that this had never happened before with their screens. Well, today the replacement, after only 10 uses....ripped again, same place. We have been taking extra care when opening the screen....made no difference. Ripped anyway and cannot be repaired. Screeen is flawed.

If you are reading this review, just buy this screen.If you decide on something else, you will regret it.It took me a bit of research to locate this screen, but I am very happy that I found it.I was looking for a portable presentation system. I was originally planning on a small pico-projector. Most of the pico-projectors produced a small image or required a very dark room. The thought of 2 or 3 people crowding around a small pop-up screen, did not impress me as being a serious presentation. This type of system would not work with family or friends either.I decided to get a 700 lumen LED pico-projector and this screen in the 45 inch size. This ended up being a larger system than I originally planned, but it is still very portable. This screen is extremely easy to set up and produces an excellent picture. This produces a good picture for small groups (maybe more, depending on seating etc.). The room does not have to be very dark to produced a good, vibrant image. When people see the picture on this screen, it,s WOW. This is where the WOW factor comes in. because it is that impressive.I like that this screen does not need a tripod or a large table to use. The screen can be adjusted to any height so that if you are showing a wide screen picture, you can just pull up the screen to fit the picture with no extra screen showing. The base is stable when used indoors, but would not work outside if there was a breeze. Very few other screens would work outside, but this screen is so easy to use that you get tempted to do this because of the convenience of using this screen.This is a good screen and is easy to use. I am happy that I decided to get this screen.

Lovely screen, light weight and easy to use, set up in seconds. Only problem is that it is top heavy. I improvised making it more stabile by placing a small hand weight on each side of the base.

I am an entrepreneur so I am often not doing presentations in a conference room where I have a big projector and screen already setup. I deal lot with services and products where it is essential to show presentations and even demos. With that in mind I wanted to make my setup very easy to travel with. In addition to this I grabbed a Vivitek Qumi and have a small tablet/laptop hybrid to make it easy to carry everything.In regards to the PC35W, this thing is awesome.I did a lot of research and found that many of the pop-ups were just not stable. If someone would shake the table or bump into them they had a good chance of falling over. In business, first impressions are key. So i spent a little more money on the PC35W.In one word, impressive! It is very easy to use and has enough weight in the base to be very stable. Another thing I like is that you do not have to open the screen all the way, so when your projector is close and not using all the screen you can shorten the height.I would recommend this for anyone working in sales and/or is an entrepreneur.

Portable. Great! Screen quality. No problems. The problem is that is falls over all the time unless you attach it to something somehow. Very disappointed for how much money I spent. It amazes me why someone doesn't get smart and attach some kind of rotating stabilizing flat pieces to the bottom to address this issue. They have to realize the problem.

It is nifty how it can stand on it's own, no tripod or bulky legs. Great for tabletop or small venues. It seems like magic the way it stands on it's own. It has a nice carry case and takes about 10 seconds to pull it out set it down and raise the screen. Handy and compact when it's in the case.. For road warrior use you will like that it's not heavy, but it is sturdy enough that it won't get knocked over too easily. Setup and breakdown in seconds which is great when I am on the move. Although directions are provided, it is very straight forward and a child could use it easily

Good build quality. the screen has a weave that was noticeable with dim pico projector (50 lumens) in moderate ambient light, but it looks great in more light controlled settings or with a brighter projector. In 4.3 format it is a little top heavy, but a small weight like a roll of quarters inside the empty spots of the frame mostly fixes it. I plan to bolt some sheet metal to rotate out as stabilizing legs as a permanent fix. When I first got it, the screen has some issues staying up properly, and I would have rated it 3-4 stars, but elites customer service was prompt and helpful and resolved the issue (loose screws). Therefore I feel they earned 5 stars for standing behind their product.
