Dont wait! Assemble right away! Just in case you need to return it.
Color: Black, Size: 22" - 4 Panel
Ok, I like the idea of this but the assembly is frustrating. One side lined up perfectly with the holes however, the small bars that connect the screen to base is not lining up. I think it's do the fabric the screen or divider is made of. It's not stretchy. I brought this months ago and just opened it today. I'm upset and don't even think returning it is possible. If the material was a bit longer or stretchy to give a little room to work with this divider would be great. However, I'm not sure what I can use it for since I'm unable to attach it to the bottom. Beware! Don't wait like me. Tip for the manufacturer. Next time invest in Velcro dividers so the fabric can be adjusted with ease. Literally if I take the screen off the frame aligns perfectly. However, it defeats its purpose of privacy. I might buy some material myself and create a more flexible divider. Or I'll buy Velcro myself and attach to the bottom. I don't know yet.

Durable non see through fabric
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
This room divider is exactly what I need. It is very durable and easy to move around. You can’t see through the fabric. I love it. My reason for purchasing this divider is to use as a divider and as a backdrop holder. And it serves both purposes perfectly. It looks much better in person than on camera. It did have the spots on one side on all of them but in a few days they went away. It foldaway and tucked away easily.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
Love the look of this after it’s put together. It’s pretty sturdy and the connecting clips allow you to shape it different if you need it to fit in a corner. We use this at work so it’s great for the space we use it in. A little hard to store because it doesn’t fold up nicely because of the feet on it but I’m happy with it overall.
