Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

Item works well with Flashpoint Budget 160 Monolight. No instructions, but I was able to put together in about ten minutes. Takes a little bit of force to get the softbox in the correct shape. Tip covers for the rods come loose easily.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

I was worried when I read all the reviews saying that they wish it came with instructions. When I got the thing I found it was fairly simple to put together. Just put the sticks in and hook the hooks to the loops and you are good to go. As far as the use of it is concerned it does everything you want a shadowbox to do. I'm personally using this as a hair light.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

Got this in an attempt to get a softer light than with an umbrella but it actually turned out a little hotter. Works well for its intended purpose though. It would have been nice if it came with assembly directions though. Took 15 minutes to figure out how to assemble it.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

Assembly of the unit is more awkward than difficult. Requires three hands. Once assembled the unit functions well

Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

The unit is well made, and even comes with a case. But the case will never see any use from me, because it takes a degree in mechanical engineering to figure out how to put it together. I have no intention of ever taking it apart and attempting to put it back together. Once together it functions as you would expect. Just one or two pictures of how to assemble it would really help.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

I guess you get what you pay for. I have yet to figure out how to assemble softbox and adorama's horrible customer service doesn't help. I have tried several times to contact by phone and always get an answering machine. I am not impressed.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 18" x 18" Softbox for the 100 watt Second Budget Monolight.:

A good addition to the 100ws budget speedlight. Would it have bankrupted adorama to include instructions? First time ever assembling and I ws busy swearing up a storm. Used it for a while and it was worth but could have been so much easier with a single sheet with pictures
