Elite Screens Yard Master Sport Series, 96 inch 1:1, 2in1 Wall Tripod Stand Outdoor Indoor Portable ISF Material Projector Screen Front Projection Carrying Bag Home Theater, US Based Company– YMS96S

This is the first screen I have owned so I don't have anything to compare it to.I have only used it as a rear projection for outdoor movies in the yard. It works great. I would highly recommend rear projection if you have 8 to 10 feet behind the screen to set your projector up. I use a CAIWEI Home Projector LCD LED Video Projector 4200 Lumens that you can buy on Amazon. I have not used the front projection but I assume it would be as good or better then the rear.The picture is great in my opinion and the 120" screen is perfect for us.Easy to setup takes one person (me) about 5 minutes to put it together. Very easy. I leave the screen frame loose on the ground when I snap the screen into place. Once all the snaps are connected then I stand it up and lock the corners into place and the screen is stretched tight. Any fold lines disappear or are not noticeable.The aluminum frame is very well designed and seems sturdy and well built. It is not indestructible because it is aluminum. My only concern is the life span of the snaps. The snaps appear to be good quality and I have not noticed any issues snapping and unsnapping them. One or two failures probably wouldn't make a difference.With the rear projection you have everything behind the screen and it is more like a large TV screen. The only cord going through the viewing area is an extension cord to the power strips behind the screen. With children or inebriated adults there is nothing to trip on or knock over. I have an above ground pool so I didn't want any electrical devices anywhere near contact with water. It can be a real clutter behind the screen with power cords and speaker connections so it is nice to keep this all away from everybody.I wouldn't hesitate to purchase again if something happened to this one.

I purchased this screen for backyard movie nights with family & friends, and we've used it four times so far. The screen is bright and big and relatively easy to setup. I say "relatively," because I need the kids to help to set it up because it's so darn large. Which is what I wanted.The legs unfold easily and the bolts screw in quickly. The snaps that hold the screen, snap on tightly. I've seen snaps on other products that keep coming off, loose, but these seem strong and tight.If I had a comment it would be -- how the heck am I supposed to attach the anchor lines? There's nothing in the manual about the anchor line, or how to affix them. Luckily, we haven't had any windy nights and the screen was stable enough without the lines. But I would like to know.I also have to figure out the ideal way to fold the screen up again, so it fits back in the little leather baggy it was intended to. If I might make a suggestion: consider including a drawing, showing how the screen is supposed to be folded up in order to fit back in the leather bag (I'm referring to the small leather zipper bag that comes INSIDE the bigger carrying case, which I assume is for the screen).That's it for me!Except to say that I work in the film industry and movies are very important to me, as is the movie-viewing experience, and despite being pretty demanding, I'm really pleased with this product. Hoping it lasts for many years!

This review is for the 120" Yard Master Pro. I've actually ended up using this screen a lot more than I thought I would. Part of that is due to the relatively easy setup and breakdown. I can get it together myself now in about 15 minutes tops and only need one other person to actually lift it up and place it. The picture quality is great. The adjustability is great and has come in handy when we've had a lot of people watching in rows. This is a solid four stars and I'd definitely recommend this screen.I deducted one star for the following reasons:- I've gone as far as keeping the screen set up overnight and just can't get the wrinkles out of it. Further, it's almost impossible to fold the same way it comes with so I've only introduced new wrinkles in the weeks I've been using it. Luckily it doesn't seem to affect performance at night but you can notice the wrinkles if you're starting a movie around dusk. Even then, it's not terribly distracting though.- The anchor system isn't very tough. It adds some stability for normal conditions, but even a little bit of wind will cause it to go shaking (or even fall with a strong gust). We solved this when necessary by using our own stakes set further out from the legs with rope run through the provided eyelets. On a decently windy night recently, the screen didn't budge. So, overall, definitely happy that the screen can perform with the right setup.- I found the instructions confusing at first, made more confusing by the company video for this series that is actually for smaller sizes and not relevant to the 120" style I purchased. I wish they also made a video for the larger styles. But after some trial and error, I got it and setup has been easy since.

I own a company, we do continuing medical education conferences. I take my own AV equipment, because they charge a ton to rent it, and they often give us equipment that is mediocre, especially projectors and screens. I have had two Elite Screens Yardmaster 2 120" screens for a few years, but our conferences are getting bigger, so we need bigger conference rooms. Upgraded to this 135" screen that allows front or rear projection. Just finished a conference with it set up for rear projection (using an Optoma 5000 lumen ultra short throw projector) and everything was easily readable from the back of the room, probably 70-75' away. These screens are well built and last. They have a carrying bag, which I put into a case designed to carry a set of golf clubs.
