Overall a great value. Does not have an adjustable limit switch for the up and down positions :( but it operates smoothly and quietly. The RF remote is great. No easy way to mount the main control box to the wall (a couple of holes for screws would be sufficient, but there's no place to attach screws "out of the box"). Mounting brackets were supposed to be included for the screen but they were not. This was not a problem for me, however, because I intended to mount the screen directly to the wall all along (very easy to do once you supply your own mounting screws with the correct diameter heads). The bottom bar is not heavy enough to fully stretch the fabric to prevent some bowing of the screen, but you get what you pay for. Again, an overall great product for the money.

This EliteScreens 120"(4:3) Diag. Electric screen is part of my first true home theatre. I've grouped it with an HD projector, 5.1 Surround, and loge seating from a 70's movie theatre. Authentic, except for the beer, and private bath. The novelty and convenience of an electric screen is great. When the screen is up it's as if there's no TV in the room. The smooth roll of the screen coming down by remote adds a feeling of oppulence to the whole experience (for better or worse). As for the screen itself, the reflection seems good, tho I really have nothing to compare it to. My only complaint is the slight wave @ the bottom 6" of the screen. It's more apparent in low horizontal lines. I compensate for this by lowering the screen at least 6" lower than the image being projected. I would've also liked to have seen a couple of "L" brackets, or other kind of simple mounting hardware included.
