Excellent construction and a solid striplight.

This softbox is a [*] to put together! It is best to put this thing together once and leave it that way if possible! Once assembled it works fairly well, however either I put it together wrong it is has a slightly quirky design! The issue I'm having is that the back of the softbox that attaches to the speed ring does not have quite enough material to completely close! So I have to stretch the material over the rods to try to close it up so there is no light leakage, in some cases I have used Gaffers tape.

I bought this modifier based on the Photoflex name and the other related success I have had with their other products. However this one I'm less than thrilled about! All in all the I like the softbox however the assembly is a royal pain...you almost need 2 people to assemble it. When you do get it assembled it seems that the back portion (the portion that attaches to the speed ring) seems to be a tad short of being securely closed! It almost seems like you have to stretch the fabric over the spines to attach it securely, however the fabric doesn't give at all, so you are left with these openings in the back of the unit that don't look like they are supposed to be there at all.

As with every Photoflex product, this one is solid, well made, and easy to use. I have acquired two of these to use as hairlights and/or narrow (narrower than a standard softbox) sidelights for carefully controlling the light thrown. Light, easy to control the lighting so I can create effects that are more challenging to produce with regular and larger softboxes. Strongly recommend as a basic part of a studio setup, especially in conjunction with something like a 3' x 4" softbox and/or umbrellas as key lights.

Not a bad product once you set it up correctly. It seemed difficult at first with the rods in the ring but once you get past the first setup its just fine

Great size for many applications, can add grid for great control. Well built easy to assemble and store.

I have it mounted over a large shooting table, canted slightly back to wash bkgd shadows. I'm using the Photoflex QL lights. No complaints.

Quite Nice, Well made , yet I do think at that price point there still could have been a little more quality to the construction........definitely better than any " low budget" brands.....Narrow focus of light with quite rapid fall-off at the edges, works well when thats what you need, keeps the light off the background pretty well[...] After some research, I would say Overall that the price to value ratio is pretty good for these strip lights, probably the sweet spot in the market.
