Wow this was a let down

Awhile back I ordered the 10x12 Belle Drape solid light grey background. I needed a white background for an upcoming photo shoot. So again I went with a Belle Drape, since the first was was very nice. Sadly this is not the case for the "heavy weight" white background. This background is paper thin, I can clearly see my hand behind it. It's frayed all the way around the edges.

Great background for the price

For the price, this background is perfect. We use it for photo-booth-type events and it's thick enough that with two strobes aimed at it, you don't see any background through it. With a little bit of steaming, 90% of the wrinkles went away the first time we got it out. Great cheap background!

Great product

This is a great backdrop. It has enough weight to hang nicely. Smudges are easily removed with a dry Magic Eraser. It is hard to get wrinkles out though.

Great Value

I keep making the mistake of buying something cheep to keep down costs, and it always bites me, except this time. I love this background. It photographs very well. True white backdrop. It's heavyweight and I can't see through it, and it's strong. You can steam it free of wrinkles for the finished look, or crinkle it for a more casual look.

Decent backdrop

Purchased two of these (two colors)and quality is good. My advice, always get the heavy weights. I cannot imagine anything thinner working as well. I use a small hand steamer to drop the fold creases after it's hung. Hemmed well, with sewn in logo. Even heavier muslin would get five stars for the money. Overall, well pleased so far.

Good value.

Heavy duty, blocks out anything behind it.

Perfect

This backdrop was easy to iron and produced excellent results.

Good for beginners, a bit wrinkly

This is great for those just starting out in portraits or advertising photos. The deal with this is that it is a little wrinkly but an iron takes care of most of them. IF you can afford something more expensive that would not require so much maintenance you should, but if you're on a budget, this will suit your needs and you won't be disappointed. Its solid enough that it completely blocks out the background which is a problem for some white backdrops. Not for this one, its solid construction makes it preferable to the even cheeper ones (which I would stay clear of for white).

Does the job!

This background works well. The plastic bag that it comes with is not very suitable for transport or storage, it split very soon after I got it.
