    Elite Screens Manual SRM Series, 100-Inch 16:9, Slow Retract Pull Down Projection Projector Screen, Model: M100XWH2-SRM

    • All of the research I read indicated that I should purchase a tab tensioned
    • but I ignored that research because this was a well reviewed product for maybe a third of the price of the best tab tensioned screen I would find
    • Using this as a "temporary" setup, will probably get a tab-tension powered screen at some point.
    • There is a reason this is a third of the price of a tab tensioned screen
    • There seems to be no way to get a completely flat surface without either going for a tab-tensioned screen (that costs more than twice as much) or a fixed screen
    • All pull down screens that aren't tab-tensioned will have rippling to some extent, but a well-made pull down screen will look MUCH better than this one
    • I didn't expect this product to perform as well as a tab tensioned
    • My advice is to skip this screen and save up for a proper tab tensioned screen where this sort of thing won't happen.
    • I'm a little disappointed, and will likely work my way up to a tab-tensioned screen in the future
    • Sure it's not perfect, tab tensioned, electric, and acoustically transparent
    • My advice is to skip this screen and save up for a proper tab tensioned screen where this sort of thing won't happen.
    • but I ignored that research because this was a well reviewed product for maybe a third of the price of the best tab tensioned screen I would find
    • I gave it five stars considering its low cost -- if you don't need motorized, controlled return, or tab tensioning you don't need anything more than this screen.
    • I chose this particular model because it is one of the only manual tab-tension screen I can find on the market
    • When I am ready to upgrade, I will likely go with Elite Screen's tab-tensioned pull down.
    • The screen is not tab tensioned or anything fancy, so the edges of the screen curl a little bit -- really not a big deal at all and not worth spending 5x more for!
    • I'll go with a tab-tensioned screen next time, I'm not sure if I'm going to go with Elite again however.
    • n’t work
    • The screen does show some horizontal lines when very bright scenes are shown but that can be easily toned out if that stuff doesn't bother you, bothers me a
    • I have no idea how well the screen works as it was delivered damaged.
    • Other than being an absolute challenge to hang as it is very long and require heavy duty mounting supplies, it works awesome
    • well so far, as well as being easy to pull down.
    • The picture on it looks crystal clear, in fact as good as my 1080p "55 in.
    • Lucky for me, screen had no issues and it works as it should.
    • Great screen the manual B
    • n’t work
    • my only gripe is its hard to pull down to the same spot every time actually almost impossible and if you pull down just a little to far you start to hear a ripping type of sound that made me think its easy to break as I pulled very gently but overal it's good as long as you leave it down most of the time of can make your projector image move up or down slightly with ease
    • but it wrinkles at the very bottom, not enough o distort,
