Nice for the money but...

I have owned Chimera for many years and saw this product and decided to give it a try for the money. The rods do not stay in their slots as easily as the Chimera and Photoflex boxes. Chimera and Photoflex rods have a slot running down the whole length of the softbox but the Creative Light has a little string in the middle and a small foot at the end/outside of the box. Just a bad design to me after having used the other boxes for many years. Takes longer to set up and breakdown in my opinion. If it were going to stay together in a studio situation it would be great but for location set-up and breakdown it is a pain in the [*]. My 2cents...

About Creative Light 100806 3 Feet RF Octagonal Softbox

• The Creative Light octagonal softboxes provide a broad light source usually used as a main light or fill but with a significant advantage over square or rectangular designs. Their shape provides natural round catchlights in eyes for beautiful portraits.
• All softboxes feature a removable interior and an external diffuser. When both are used, edge-to-edge eveness is guaranteed. CL Softboxes are constructed with reinforced stitching, ensuring no light is lost through the seams.
• Also unique to CL Softboxes is the use of all flexible steel rods rather than aluminum or fiberglass. The rigidity of steel maintains the shape of the softbox regardless of working conditions. These steel rods form the heat-resistant fabric and are perfect for flash units of any power or continuous lighting up to 500 watts.
