Review after owning for 3 years
I have been meaning to write a review on this for literally years now. The shipping was fairly fast and definitely within the stated time frame when I purchased it. I remember that it was sent freight because of its size and the driver coordinated the shipping time with my wife to make sure that someone would be home to take the delivery. He was nice enough to put it in the garage for my wife since I was not home. The packaging was the original box but with strong cardboard wrapped around each corner of the box. There was no damage to the box except for a small rip about 1.5" on the box. I would not have remembered that, but I have pictures from the day I got it. Unfortunately, the Amazon image upload system would not except the file type to show you.As for the functionality of the screen. It has worked like a charm from the day I installed it back in 2018 and continues to work flawlessly to this day. We use it about 3-4 times per week, and we roll it down and back up every time. The remote works fine as long as you point it to the screen, and I don't think I have even had to change the battery yet. The sound of the motor has not changed, and there is no indication that anything is failing. It really does work like the day that I got it.To install it, I added an electrical outlet to the ceiling and then added two 2x4s between the joists in the attic to bolt the screen in to. Bolting the screen really was a breeze, but I did need my wife to hold one side while I bolted the first side.The picture quality was and still is amazing compared to what we were using before. I have a BenQ Ht1070 projector and the image quality was night and day after I installed the new screen. We have kept the screen very clean. There really is no reason to touch it so I have not wiped it down except when I first installed it. We generally watch a movie and then immediately roll it back up. No real opportunity for damage or to get dirty. The only thing that I wish was different from the experience was the plastic smell in the first few weeks of owning it. It smelled like a cheap pool toy for about 3 weeks. During that time I left the screen down and opened the window to allow the gases to air out. I would say that the smell is probably unavoidable with anything made out of plastic or pvc, so I do not fault Elite for that. It's like complaining about the smell of paint. It just is what it is, but it did linger for about 3 weeks to a month. It was strong at first and then at the end the smell began to fall off quicker and quicker. I would leave the window open as much as you can during this time though.Overall, I am extremely happy with our screen, and it has made a huge difference in our home theater experience. It still feels cool to hit the remote and see the screen slowly roll down. That's our cue to know that movie night is about to start and that is always a good feeling. I definitely recommend this screen if you want to upgrade your home theater impression and experience.

Good screen
Used at our church. it looks and works really well. only issue I have is the receiver for the remote. I though it would be built into the screen housing. you actually connect the receiver box to a cord so you don't have to point the remote at the screen. you can put it in a more convenient location if your screen housing is hidden. for our application it means we have an exposed wire running down the wall. looks a little funky but no big deal.

Used it one time and it wont go up
After getting it connected to the ceiling and finally hooking it up. I press the button on the remote to bring it down and it works the problem is now it wont go up, so the expensive remote control projector screen isn't even remote control anymore. It worked for less then 2 minutes and now the only option to have it “fixed” is to return it and get a new one after the hassle of getting it set up.

Great investment. Why Elite screens are the better choice
The media could not be loaded. Bought the 150” screen which is about 11.5feet long and 7 ft high. This screen will cover a wall. I bought the Elite brand because I went based on reviews and product description. The screen weighs about 75lbs. You can mount it flush directly onto the wall with the anchors it comes with but it’s best if you can mount both side onto a stud. I ended up buying brackets to mount to the wall and the screen hooks on to the brackets so it sits about 2-3” away from the wall. You will need two people and possibly two ladders to install something this big.It comes with the remote which can be programmed to descend and ascend as you turn your projector on and off. The picture quality is excellent. Very opaque like professional projector screens you see in schools but with larger options. Easily viewable from any angle, no ripples, wrinkles, or distortion in images with this screen. Our other foldable screen doesn’t even compare. Don’t waste your time with other lower priced screens. There were other lower priced competitors but the shipping costs were so high you don’t really save much. I’m glad I went with the Elite brand, shipping was faster and handled with great care put right into the entryway. We enjoyed projecting movies on the wall before or even using the old fabric screen, but nothing compares to this motorized professional quality screen. Yes, it makes a difference that is worth the investment

Great screen for a white screen
Excellent screen for what it is. I ended up opting for an ALR screen due to the ambient light in my living room but this one does exactly what it says and the motorization is awesome. Only piece of advice is leave it all the ay down for a week or so. My installer said this is needed to avoid warping issues.
