One of a few quality products still manufactured in America ...
By Mark R. Wietstock
Once upon a time, American manufacturing was the envy of the world. Without getting into all the reasons that's no longer the case, when it came time for me to get a tripod projection screen, I was very happy to see that the Da-Lite company is still manufacturing an American classic: the "Picture King." Da-Lite and a number of other manufacturers make a cheaper version of this size screen, and most of us have seen what happens to them in normal use. The screen material is thin and funky, the tripod and adjustment hardware fall apart, and the screen quickly becomes a headache to set up and use. Don't waste your money on cheaper versions ... just spend a bit more and get the Picture King. You'll be glad you did.The Picture King is well designed and constructed with durable, quality materials, and will last a lifetime if properly used and cared for. The tripod, screen housing, center posts and adjustment hardware are all aluminum or steel, and tough as nails. It's a bit big and heavy, so it requires some strength to carry around, but nothwithstanding its heft, it's very easy to set up, and provides a great, stable projection surface for just about all viewing conditions.To set it up, you pick the screen up by its VERY beefy metal handle and set it on the tripod end; touch the toe release at the base of the tripod assembly; the tripod legs unlock and spread out by themselves; you rotate the screen housing to a horizontal position; pull up the center post and lock it in place at your desired height; pull the screen up and hang its handle on the clip at the top of the center post, and you're good to go. The center post has plenty of fixed height settings at both the top and bottom of the screen. and use the "keystone" adjuster to tip the top of the screen toward the projection source, if needed. While the maximum size of the screen is 70 x 70 in. square, it's simple to adjust it for letterbox or wide screen formats, e.g., by just pulling less of the screen up out of its housing.When you're ready to put it away, it folds up securely and neatly -- there's a fixed clip and corresponding button that holds the screen handle in place against the center handle; a pin at the top of the center post that fits in a hole at the top end of the screen housing to lock it parallel with the folded tripod, and another lock at the bottom of the tripod assembly that holds the folded tripod legs in place against the center post.The screen material is thick and durable, which you can also sponge off with mild soap and water if you ever have to. I got mine with the basic "Matte White" finish, but Da-Lite makes the Picture King with several other types of screen material as well, and their website fully explains how the materials differ.My Amazon purchase was flawless. Amazon had the best price and shipping options, hands-down. The item arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I also got the 70-inch cover bag from Da-Lite, and I strongly recommend that anyone getting the Picture King spend the extra 30 bucks for this invaluable accessory. It will extend the service life of your screen indefinitely, protecting it from dust and scratches. So far, I'm delighted with both.

By V. Sygen
It was a choice between its less expensive cousin of the same size (around $86 on Amazon) and this one. Since this projector screen will be handled by many people, I thought that it would be wiser to invest into something sturdier. And that's what I got.It's very well constructed. For example, once set up, the screen does not move or sway at all because of the folding sturdy tripod legs. The instruction sheet is a bit outdated but you don't have to be an engineer to figure it out. I still gave it the highest rating because I was impressed with the manufacturer's tech support: I chatted on line with them and got my question resolved in no time at all.I'll close with an anecdote. It was shipped in a very sturdy box. When opened, the metal casing for the screen has a big dent. Clearly, that probably happened at the factory. I returned it to Amazon: a pick-up was arranged and a replacement was sent out very quickly. It came just two days after I was notified that they received the returned merchandise.A very satisfied customer.

Great Screen!
By Randal Slutz
Our training staff does many trainings in the rural areas and small towns around us. This product is an excellent presentation screen and a VERY sturdy product. It will withstand the abuse of loading & unloading from company vehicles for many years. The tradeoff, of course, is that it is rather heavy and some of the women complain about it! But they love that it is rock stable with no wobble. Overall, a very good product.
