This is the worst background support system I have ever used. I thought it would be fine for my home studio, but it fell apart the first time I set it up just to make sure the parts were all there. The bar spring system fell apart and the straps the hold the poles in are really cheaply sewn and they completely broke. And it's actually fallen apart beyond repair as far as the actual bar is concerened. I will be returning ASAP. Definitely purchase the Westcott system for the extra $75. Totally worth it.

Nice product for the price. I was pretty disappointed that the product description says the product comes with 4 cross bars and there were only 3 in the package. First time Adorama didn't deliver what they advertised.

The stands are light weight. This is not the most rugged stand on earth, but a great product for the cost. Easy to carry. I would give the product 5 stars except the zipper on the bag broke on the second use. Still can carry the bag though. I use various back drops of varing weights with no problem. The width adjust to using two or three bars for different widths. I use the two bars (6 feet) most of the time with 54 to 58 inch back drops with fantastic results. Love the product.

Will stand very tall and about 10 feet wide. Fairly sturdy as I don't use real heavy backdrops. Folds and stores easy, fairly compact. Great carrying bag. Not super studio quality; however, great for portable and home studio use. Definitely would buy again.

The background holder is very versatile and strong. Easy to erect and adjust. The case is a nice feature - makes frames easy to store and carry to different locations. Fantastic product.

Lightweight seamless paper holder that is sturdy enough to to keep the paper in place. I used it in a shoot last weekend, and it performed beautifully. Quick and easy to set up. Easily adjustable. The support stands can also be put into action as extra light stands, if needed. A good, solid purchace at a reasonable price. It comes with a terrific storage bag so you don't have to have stray pieces laying around the house.

The JTL background stand is very sturdy and comes in a great bag, very compact and weighs no more than 10lbs. I would definitely buy this again.

I really am impressed with this for the price. Comes with an excellent carrying case which will make this easy to take on location. You can also order a Triple Bar Holder set to allow you to mount up to three rolls on the stand. You have to order an extra two crossbars if you want to hold three rolls. This holds my 107" rolls without a problem.

I wanted a good, solid background support system. I read the reviews for this system and have to agree that this is one solidly built system. I can't compare it to a professional high dollar system, but for an indoor studio setup this is perfect and can't be beat. It was Christmas time and needed a good support for my background. Within a week after after receiving it I had it setup in a local store where I took pictures of the kids talking with Santa. Worked great!

When I bought this, I thought I was going to receive something cheaply built, and have to buy another one in six months. Man, let me tell you that I was very wrong. The stands that it comes with are so strong that if you broke them, you had to be using it wrong!!

The heavy duty background support systems have been developed and built by JTL. These systems meet the special requirments of photographers who demand a device that has convenient operation and durability.
