Cheap and unstable
Size: 4 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel, Color: Black
Although this has nothing to do with the product, it arrived a day later than previously stated. Making me have to create a makeshift room divider the day it was actually needed. When the product arrived it arrived in a box that showed no evidence of damage. Once opened, divider was found inside a plastic cover. Great protector for dust or scratching. The divider was fully assembled so there was nothing for me to do but remove it from packaging and use it where needed. After further inspection the divider was not only cheap and flimsy looking it was absolutely unstable. It would wobble and appears to have been assembled in a rush making some panels crooked. I noted significant damage to the bottom portion of some of the panels both front and back. It does not feel like an item worth the price. The color is as advertised and the product had no smell. The sizing was accurate.

It really covers our privacy area.
Color: Off White, Size: 8 Panels, Color: Off White, Size: 8 Panels
This privacy screen really works! It is the exact size that we needed (8 panel) the white color brightens the deck and compliments the trim of our house.The weight is minimal and was easily put up by two people.As for the sturdiness, the screen is made for outdoors, so I am hoping it will stand up to rain and some wind.
