This review is from: Accuscreen 800001 100-Inch HDTV Electric Screens with Infrared Remote and Inline ControlI bought this screen from TigerDirect about a month ago and it took a while for it to be delivered. It arrived three weeks later in excellent condition. It had heavy cardboard edge protectors on the edge of the box and it even had a photo on one side of the box showing what the condition of the box was like when it left TigerDirect's shipping facility - now that's what I call putting in extra care! I set it up last night after doing some calculating where the best mounting location would be and spending almost an hour installing a 1" x 6" board and two hooks. When I first plugged in the power cord for the inline control switch and pressed the down button, I was very happy to hear how quiet the unit runs as the screen was being lowered. My only complaint (can be easily fixed) is that the foot wide area of black edging showed when it was done lowering. I have since then pushed the stop button on the switch when I begin to see the black edge at the top. I set up my Optoma HD65 projector and my Samsung DTB-H260F HDTV converter box (it has an HDMI output) and it has a bright picture - even when I had a small table lamp on. I don't know what the previous reviewer's problem is (perhaps it is defective), but this is an outstanding screen for a beginner's home theater. It does what it's supposed to, looks good, and costs significantly less than other similar-sized screens (paid a little less than $200). I love it!...
This review is from: Accuscreen 800001 100-Inch HDTV Electric Screens with Infrared Remote and Inline ControlSo yeah- the screen is cheap. Damn cheap. Bought it online (TigerDirect?) through amazon. Installation is a breeze as long as the cord is long enough. If it isn't, you're out of luck- either get an external cord, or get used to it.Press "down" on the remote, and the screen does come down, but with some annoying squeaks. Not awful, but a frequent conversation started (as in 'how much did you pay for your screen?'). Press "up", and you get more of the same squeaks.Between "down" and "up" you probably want to watch some movies. Couple of issues there:1) There is no standard 12v trigger (which is becoming common in many a projectot and receiver). You can get your universal remote to control the screen, but you're still stuck with a bully IR remove receiver that you have to conceal or live with2) The screen has annoying waves which become pronounced when the camera pans/zooms slowly. More conversation usually ensues.On the positive side, the kids love it.Bottom line: Get it as a starter screen to see if you like the concept of watching a projector. If you do, upgrade to a better screen....
