Fantastic!
The build quality of this screen is impressive. This is not your average tube frame, it's nicely bevelled and covered in felt. A lot of people seem to be building these screens alone. However if you're assembling anything as large as this 120" screen I'd make sure I had a helper.
Assembling the screen won't take too long. Here's a BIG tip, when you're snapping the screen into the frame do the corners in an "X" pattern first! Then work towards the middle. With so much material it takes a little muscle to stretch it tight.
What took the most time was getting it hung properly. It's basically hung up on 4 screws you install into the wall. I test hung just the outside frame a couple times to make sure it was located properly.
Also the packaging on this screen was impressive. The box came damaged, however all the parts are double boxed and have foam spacing so it would really need a beating to get through to anything.

I started the return process for this item. I wanted it to work because it seemed to be well built and seems pretty good, but it ultimately came down to the issues I've had with the screen material itself. I got 2 screen materials (2nd one sent in by Silver Ticket support to try and fix the issues). First screen had multiple vertical bands which were visible in bright panning/scenes (think Top Gun, Star Wars type of movies), they're like the vertical banding you see in LCD TVs. There's one vertical band right in the middle of the screen which I suspect to be the vertical support bar, seems like the screen material backing doesn't do a good enough job of hiding the support bar in bright scenes. Another issue I've noticed is that there's a bit of hotspotting (area brighter than the rest of the screen) on the mid-section of the screen where the projector is directed at. In the hotspot section, in bright scenes, you can clearly see the surface of the screen which seems to be very small...
Simply awesome!
Wow. Again. Wow. What a wonderful screen. I decided on this screen based on both my research and the recommendation from my friend who is a home theater installer. The screen was very easy to setup (but I would strongly recommend you get a friend to help you, especially when stretching the material to clip into the frame). Once put together, it was very easy to mount onto the wall (surprisingly light but very solid feel). The image quality on the screen is sharp and both the blacks and colors look wonderful. And I am so so glad I bought a 120". It is mind-blowing watching a game or a 3D movie on this screen. We sit about 18 feet away from the screen, and it feels like we're in a cinema (but much more comfortable of course!). I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this.
