VIVO 100 inch Universal Manual Pull Down Projector Screen, Retractable Auto-Locking 4K 3D 1080P HD 16:9 Projection, School Conference Home Theater, Easy Mounting Wall or Ceiling Installation, PS-M-100

I was looking for a screen to use my Optoma short throw projector. I was looking for a manual pulldown screen since it will not be used as our main TV viewing. I wanted a screen bigger than my 92" Mitsubishi TV.I was looking at first for a 120" screen. The Elite screens in this size we're around $250. I saw Elite made a 100" screen and was much cheaper. After some research, I found out it was not compatible with short throw projectors. So I stumbled upon this Vivo 100" screen for only $68.I was worried that price was cheap and so would this screen be. Box arrived in perfect condition. It is a very long box, but not heavy at all, only 18lbs. It does not come with any mounting hardware. My wife wanted it mounted on the ceiling.I was going to originally mount to the wood beams in the ceiling, but it would not be center or line up with rings on projector housing. I decided to get 2 swag hooks at Walmart rated at 30lbs for $1.67 each, and just mount it through the 1/2" drywall.The projector is light enough at 18lbs and I am not concerned about projector coming down. I measured center to center on the rings on the housing and that was 91 inches. Then measured the length of my wall and subtracted 91 from that and divided by 2 to see where I needed to mount it centered on the ceiling.Used my cordless drill and 1/2 inch bit to drill the 2 holes into the ceiling. Used a T square to mark 19 inches from the wall so to clear the Ikea shelf when we pull it down.The screen is easy to pull down and put back up. The smell is not that bad at all. After a few minutes being down, I didn't even notice the smell any longer.There was no waves in the screen, but a 7" scratch at the bottom. This was not noticable at all when projector was on, and not worth the trouble getting a replacement with possible worse issues.I have my Optoma gt750 about 4 feet from the screen. I will update it to a Optoma darbee 1080p in the future. But for now the 750 looks great, even at 720p. The screen makes the picture look much better than just using a white wall. I am so happy I went with the 100" vs the 120". The $150 plus extra cost of the 120" was too much of a difference in price to justify the purchase.The 100" screen is plenty big and so glad I bought it. Definetly worth buying and I will again for sure. Bought a Yamaha receiver for the downstairs so I can bring up Onkyo with surround sound speakers for our room for family movie night.

The media could not be loaded. Did NOT come damaged, no wrinkles, and pulls down and retracts back up fine. This is the 100" screen. It is super big!! Mine measured out to about 92" from left to right. Nonetheless it's still huge. Picture quality is great. Keep in mind your projector plays a big role in how well the picture is. I have a short throw projector. Mounted about 6ft from the screen and I cant complain. Picture is super crispy, I use an onn projector. The only negative thing I have to say about it is it stinks so bad! I suggest leaving it unrolled for a day or two. Anything new has its own unique smell. (Its pretty strong on the chemical side) I mounted directly on wall with some screws I had laying around. Doesn't come with hardware but unless you intend to hang from a ceiling all you need is two screws and drywall anchors if you dont place on a stud. The price is pretty amazing for the size of this thing. I am super picky as my projector is essentially used for daily tv and this screen I definitely recommend.

Totally accidental purchase. I thought I was buying something else, and I was so disappointed when I took it out to find it was not electric. I'm sure I am not the only one that became confused with Amazon ordering when somehow looking at options I checked out something else. This is the manual screen.....but being anxious to get my room going, and seeing that I paid such a small amount, I tried it. For the money this screen is FANTASTIC. I have NO complaints. It has two hooks on top, and withing minutes using some electrical hangers I hung the screen from my ceiling and was in business. I plan on still ordering an electric screen but no hurry as this one exceeded expectations and I really dont need to raise it as the room is dedicated. I have a little warping on the left side, but you really don't notice it, and if you do it is very brief and doesnt bother me at all. Other than that it is a nice screen, easy to install (did it myself) and very inexpensive.

The quality of the screen is based on material only and I'm no expert on that by any means. However, I recently purchased a cheap 720p projector and got tired of using a bed sheet as a screen so after reading a bunch of reviews and doing some light research i purchased this screen about 2-3 weeks ago. It is a giant product constructed of light metal so a dent or two is understandable. Even standing this product on its short end (so its 9 feet in the air) and leaning it against a wall for a prolonged period of time could cause a stress dent in the center and i believe that's what happened to mine while sitting on my porch waiting for me to pick it up. However the dent does not cause any functional issues at all and is honestly only noticeable to me. That's the only con I have and I only mention it b/c returning this product due to such a minor dent is unnecessary but if you want to avoid it perhaps schedule it for pick up rather than leaving it at your door.On the much larger bright side, the screen functions perfectly and is vastly superior to a bed sheet. The pull-down works exactly as described and as long as you operate it with patience and competence you should have no issues. While the black sides of mine curl slightly as others have mentioned, this causes no issues with the image though so its not a pro or con just a fact.I got this thinking it might be portable and it certainly can be moved short distances fairly easily (as in from one floor to another) but being 9 feet long, traveling with it is not feasible for most people.Overall, i would recommend this screen for use in a 'makeshift' home theater setup (but if you have a professionally outfitted theater room, spend more money and get a powered version).
