Elite Screens Manual B, 100-INCH Manual Pull Down Projector Screen Diagonal 16:9 Diag 4K 8K 3D Ultra HDR HD Ready Home Theater Movie Office Presentation, M100H

Let me preface this review with the fact that I have little experience with projector systems. I have been involved with Home Theater since the early 90s but never lived with a projector system before.In my room with a moderate amount of light control, this screen is brilliant. I've been using it for just over six months and I still have moments where I am just completely immersed in the viewing experience. The higher gain of the screen makes it casually usable with the room lights on but sacrifices the deepest blacks even in full dark. With my projector and to my eyes, I get good contrast and visual depth but no one will confuse this with an OLED. Mounting was easy and it has been stable ever since. Even when left down for a week or more, the screen still retracts smoothly and fully. In my room, the screen covers the only window so being able to retract it to get my view back is a welcome option. If you have the screen in front of a window, you will need a blackout curtain or shade or you will wash out the picture when the Sun hits from the back.Overall I am very happy with my purchase. This screen has kinda spoiled me and now I want to upsize the other TVs now. If I ever feel the need to upgrade, I'll be sure to give Elite Screens another shot.

Really nice, durable pull-down screen. Easy to hang. Would recommend.

PRODUCT VERSION REVIEWEDELITE SCREENS MANUAL B 100-INCH MANUAL PULL DOWN PROJECTOR SCREEN DIAGONAL 16:9 DIAG 4K 8K 3D ULTRA HDR HD READY HOME THEATER MOVIE THEATRE WHITE PROJECTION SCREEN WITH SLOW RETRACT MECHANISM M100HQUICK REVIEW: [TL;DR]HIGH QUALITY – VERY AFFORDABLE MOVIE SCREEN – NO FRILLS NEEDED – EASY SETUPFULL REVIEW:ELITE SCREENS MANUAL B- M100H was exactly what I needed. I was going nuts looking at every projector screen on Amazon and other sites (for several months), and kept working my way up to $500-$1000 automatic screens. I finally took a step back, and thought about what I really needed / wanted.MY NEEDS:- Simple, idiot proof operation, for myself and guests- No hunting around for remotes- Lightweight for easy 1 person installation- Black Background for light blocking from background devices- High Reflection Rate (but not too bright)- 100 inch overall diagonal size- Something good enough for my 1080p / 3D projector- Attractive enough for my unfinished basement / rec. room- Nothing so expensive that I will get upset when my rowdy nephews break it- A good upgrade from a stretch fabric screen (that my nephews already got pool table chalk on)UNFOUNDED CONCERNS FROM OTHER REVIEWS:- Well packaged, no dents in boxes or case- No Strong Odor- No Wrinkle in the ScreenSETUP:In my case, my basement is unfinished so I wanted the screen mostly tucked out of the way into rafters/ceiling joists. My ceiling is also on the lower side, so it was easy to hang / install myself. I ended getting some adjusting projector hanging brackets ($14) to make it a little easier to level. I also needed to mount the screen between the joists so I needed the brackets to move the project away from the wall. I have a 65” TV for everyday TV and Gaming. I needed the screen far enough out so that I could pull it down in front of the TV when I want a more immersive experience.TIPS:Maybe it goes without saying, but I was very careful to make sure the screen was as level as I could get it, and perfectly square with my projector and the wall behind. This way it stays in focus across the entire screen. I also had to move my projector to make sure it was centered on the screen.IMPRESSIONS (so far):I LOVE IT. MY WIFE LOVES IT. MY SON LOVES IT. We have already elevated our family movie nights, and I’m loving watching NFL Playoff games on a 100 inch screen while I write this review.It has met or exceeded my expectations on every level. I could not be happier with this purchase.RECOMMENDATION:Skip all the bells and whistles of other screens, get something that works right every time. Stop making yourself crazy and just get this screen.

I recently did an AV upgrade at my house that included adding a projector to Zone 2 (my backyard). I got this screen to mount on my back porch. At first, I chose it because it was fairly cheap and fit the dimensions I needed. After looking around some more, I realized there aren't a whole lot of options for manual pull-down screens on the market. That being said, Elite Screens offers a number of options that go up in features, quality, and price accordingly.My first impressions of this screen were not great. Carrying it in the box you could hear the springs bouncing around. I worried I would have trouble like some other reviewers did with it not "sticking" when pulled down. These worries were unfounded because mine was fine. I then remembered that I paid less than $80 for this screen and it sure looks a lot better than a white sheet pinned up to the columns.I decided to use eye hooks screwed into the ceiling with S hooks to connect to the screen. This worked great and now I can remove the screen when not in use. With the humidity and weather swings we have, this is almost necessary. Hanging it went smoothly. When I pulled it down for the first time, I had those same feelings that this is not a top-quality product, but once it was down, those feelings changed. I noticed the edged curved in a bit, but I didn't see the wrinkles others saw at the bottom. The curved edges were not noticeable when an image was projected on the screen. I like the black borders on the sides. I was expecting the same borders on the top and bottom, but they weren't there. At first, this bothered me, but again, when an image was projected on it, it looked great!Man, this thing looks great. I'm using a BenQ MW665 projector running all my sources from a Denon AVR X4000 (Zone 2) through a Belkin ScreenCast AV4 wireless HDMI Splitter. That allows me to project Blu-Ray, Cable, Chromecast, AppleTV, etc. without running an HDMI outside.I have cedar beams in my den, so I'm thinking about putting the same eye hooks and S hooks on them so I can mount the screen inside over my TV.If you're worried about the quality of this screen, remember 2 things: 1.) This is a $75 dollar screen and 2.) If you're careful and don't yank it around a lot, it will last a long time.
