Attractive, provides privacy from outsideI took this picture at night but I’ve had to keep my living room shade mostly closed because I live on the ground floor in an apartment where everybody can see in if I open the shutters very wide. I miss whatever sunshine I can get here in the pacific northwest so I bought this privacy screen to stand in front of my window to provide some privacy when I open my shutters. I works very well and I enjoy the clean, modern look that really shows off my plants and makes my living room pleasant to be in. I bought a smaller one for a side window for the same reason, to keep out nosey people who want to have a look inside my apartment. I am waiting for the smaller one to arrive. I’m very happy with my purchase.

Easy to modifyBought this to modify into sliding shojis for bedroom window. Easy to work with, sturdy materials; shojis look great both day to let in light but not heat. Nighttime presents very nice silhouette from outside.

Looks good, like the translucenceI like the light wood color and the translucent whitish paper. No complaints, except for a few imperfections (chips) in the narrow “muntins”.

Perfect for working from homeI set this up for privacy for my home office. I have to leave my door open so my dog can come in and out freely, or she gets anxious. So this blocks my screens from view from the open door. However, the height is low enough that it doesn’t block the light from the window.

Great Room Divider!My 4-panel “window pane” room divider arrived yesterday, and it’s just what I wanted — perfect. I chose the honey finish — very pretty and even matches some of my free-standing shelf units. I use my “great room” as an all-purpose room, as I live alone and don’t need to keep things formal around here. I watch tv, exercise, play my recorded music, practice guitar, and do my computering in this room, so things can get messy at times. I set up the screen so that someone coming to the front door cannot see my small computer table, shelves with various computer wires and other gear, and the tv and wires. Not only that, I feel more secure sitting here typing with my back to the front door. The shade is stable on carpet, which I worried about, but would be even better on hardwood or other hard surfaces. I don’t think this screen would be a good idea if you had unruly kids knocking things over or mischievous pets. I have two shelties, but they are not destructive and will not bother the screen.One reviewer said the packing box his screen came in was punctured or ripped, damaging the screen. Well, the box my screen came in had a small gash in it which worried me when I saw it, but have no fear — the styrofoam packaging protected the frame perfectly. The box was in good enough condition that I taped it all back up with the packing materials inside to be stored in my attic for use in case I move; the screen would need protection, so very happy I could save the box.Another reviewer said she liked the soft glow of light that shows through the screen at night, and I also like that – looks very cozy.I think these screens are a great solution to a myriad of problems around the house, and I wish I had considered one a lot earlier than I did. They are useful in hiding small workspaces or hobby areas. Another use would be at a window in lieu of a permanent window covering for people who just don’t like drapes, curtains, shades, or blinds. Another possible use in my house would be at the entry point of a small hallway that leads to the guest bathroom and bedroom when I have overnight company — the guests would probably feel more comfortable having the extra privacy, and I would feel more comfortable too.Yet another use for these screens is as a backdrop for a collection of plants or collectibles — with background lighting, you could create quite an attractive display.Bottom line: this is a quality screen, made well, and I love mine. I’m glad I ordered the honey finish, as I think “natural” or white would look too plain, at least in my house.

Quality control & smellI got this product recently. Overall as described. I got the white color, and if I’m close I notice quite a bit of chipping and imperfections in the wood frame, occasional stains in the paper. I can definitely forgive that since you don’t really notice those from afar and I can touch those up with some white paint. What I can’t give more stars for is the incredibly offensive odor of paint and volatile compounds. It was so strong after opening, even being in the same room 20ft away it gave me a massive headache. I put it outside in the sun for 3 day straight and while that helped a bit it still smells. It’s disappointing because I planned to put it in my bedroom, but there’s no way I’m going to sleep or do anything prolonged near this thing for my own health (and to avoid the literal headache). Note in general I have a very sensitive nose, so if you tend not to notice smells this may not bother you. But it was a deal breaker for me. I can find other uses for this so I’m not planning to return, but please be forewarned so you don’t invest $100+ in an item that may not fit with your room as originally envisioned.

Classy Privacy for LoftThese are delicate, but free returns from Amazon ensure that you will eventually get an undamaged product. Used to add privacy for loft. The 5ft height was needed bc of the shape of our loft entry. Easier than trying to buy or make curtains or build some kind of door. I would definitely recommend for anyone needing extra privacy for a loft or next to a toilet in a bathroom, etc. Not great around little kids or naughty pets, but ours are well behaved!

Very pretty!I bought this screen to use as doors to our bathroom. The doorway is open to the bedroom so there was a lack of privacy while showering. I removed the center panel and screwed the left panel to the right side and the right panel to the left side of the doorway. That way there are no screw holes in the middle where they meet. The doorway was nearly a perfect size for 2 panels with only about 1/4 inch gap in the middle. I think it came out great! All I have left to do is add some knobs. Well, it won’t let me add a photo, darn it.
