Fixed Frame Movie Projector Screen

I ordered the 120-inch wall-mounted projector screen, and overall, I’m very happy with it. The screen itself looks great—perfect size for a home theater setup—and the picture quality is excellent.Assembly was pretty straightforward as long as you follow the directions step by step. The trickiest part was mounting it to the wall, but even that wasn’t too bad. Just a heads-up: you’ll definitely need two people for that part—it’s large and awkward to handle solo.Once it was up, though, totally worth it. Feels solid, looks professional, and really adds to the movie night experience.

*not a professional, just a consumer*I don't know why anyone would spend twice the money! Excellent product for the money!!!So I was experimenting with the home theater idea after rebelling against these massive LED displays (what a waste of resources)! I have enough living room space for a wall mounted BenQ projecter, but wasn't sure if I'd like the idea of having a movie screen. Well, after trying a basic screen, I researched out this "little" jem, and HOLY COW is this a game changer!Pros: looks fully professional! Nice solid material, satin frame, good wall mount, screen is top notch AFAIC. Allows for great color and darks. Plenty of extra parts, but well though out (they even provide a sheet for the floor so you don't get the screen dirty, and cloth gloves for the same)!Cons: build instructions are Ikea-esq. Is a bit "fiddly" to put together, but it'll go together.The one I got is fairly large. I was nervous at first thinking I went TOO big, but in the end it fit perfectly. Follow the manky build instructions to the letter for the bast results. Use a carpenter square if you have one to ensure the frames is, well, square, before tightening everything up. It was important to follow the screen tension method, as it worked out perfectly, no wrinkles or distortion. Hangingbrhis beast was easier that I expected. I was able to build and hang this by myself in just a few hours. I do like the fact that if we want to rearrange the room/theater, this frame will be easy to relocate.

6 months testing and confirmed this is one awesome screen. We had our projector luminated on a white wall before and thought the picture looked great but after installing this...world of difference. Easy to install, just make sure you have lots of space!

I do wish that they allowed 1/2 stars, I would give this screen 4 1/2. Once you are finished building and installing, the end product is super nice and looks fantastic on the wall. The instructions are underwhelming for sure, and in some parts of the build process one needs to figure it out on their own. The biggest tip is to NOT install the screen until you do a few dry runs with the black borders and make sure it snaps on the wall correctly. The clips on the wall must be perfectly flat and right up against the drywall. The lower clips are not as easy is hoped to get into the right position. So probably you will have to move them all slightly after the dry run. Don't risk your screen with all of tinkering. Most walls are not perfectly flat, so you will have to shift it around slightly to get it to snap into place and then use the fine tune settings in your projector to flatten the image.The springs that hold the screen into place are a bit frustrating at first, and it takes a bit to get used to pulling it into the right position. Once this is done, in my case the screen was super flat and tight.The picture quality from the short throw projector once completed was excellent and much better than how it looked on the wall. Well worth the money.

I just received my screen and assembled it in about 3 hours(I screwed up and had to backtrack after not reading the directions fully). I used needle-nosed pliers instead of their included tool which made attaching the tension springs much easier. If you have a large open space, assembly is not difficult. If your floor space is tight, tip-toeing around the screen/frame while it is on the ground can be tedious and a second person to assist in assembly would be helpful.Regarding quality, this screen is excellent. If you were unaware, this is an Elite Screen model, branded as Akia. I am by no means an expert, but Elite Screens appears to be one of the biggest players in the projector screen market. The aluminum frame parts are heavy duty and the velvet border makes the screen look luxury/professional. In our new house, we needed a larger screen as our previous one was too small. My wife and I were heavily debating between getting a fixed frame screen or a retractable screen(similar to our previous one). We ultimately decided on this one for aesthetics/quality, and are very satisfied with our choice.The image quality of this screen is also excellent. Granted, we are likely less conscious of image quality than others might be. We threw the projector on the wall for 3 months before we got this screen and were only mildly bothered by it. However, once this was set up, it was a VERY noticeable difference in image quality. Even compared to our previous retractable screen, this screen was a step up.Overall, I think this option is currently the best value for a fixed frame screen.
