Pros:1. The finished light box is lightweight but sturdy.2. The backdrops are a fairly rigid plastic that feels like they will last a long time (if I can keep from scratching them up during storage).3. My light box came with a power cord that was ready to plug straight into the wall (no USB adaptors used or needed; the included carrying case should help with that).4. The light control box has a dimmer knob so you can precisely control how much or little light you want to use. The first time I turned it on, I turned it all the way up...it took 2 seconds to come on, then was immediately so blindingly bright that I actually staggered back a step! LOL I am definitely able to take good photos now even while indoors in a tiny home and at night even! So I'm really happy with the lights.5. I also really appreciate that the 2 light bars have magnets so you can slide them where you want them along 2 metal strips on the "ceiling" of the light box as needed. You could probably also not use the magnets at all and simply prop them up vertically in the corners of the box or lay them down flat if you wanted other lighting position options.6. The light box has 2 flaps (one on the front, one on the "roof") that make it super easy to take photos through. Since I bought the larger light box, the front flap is so large I was able to fit my entire upper body through it while putting the backdrop into place.7. I also really appreciate the carrying case! Though the frame assembly is such a pain that I will probably be keeping my light box assembled even while in storage.Cons:1. Putting together the metal pipe and plastic corner connector frame for this light box was not easy. The metal poles/pipes are coated and the connectors are a super tight fit. I don't have a lot of hand and upper body strength, so I had to get my husband to help assemble the frame. But once the frame was assembled, the rest of the box's assembly was easy.2. I wish the plastic backdrops were about 1-2 inches wider so they could drape over the plastic frame once in place...this would add a bit more space to photograph inside without the frame showing in the photos.3. The light diffuser cloth is basically a thin cloth napkin with metal hooks attached at each corner for you to clip them onto the light box's frame. The hooks can easily slide sideways along the frame once in place though, so the cloth ends up drooping down a bit. For taller objects being photographed, this could cause a problem with the cloth showing up in your photos. But you could use a bit of tape over the hooks to keep them from sliding along the frame for a temporary fix.4. As others have mentioned, the diffuser cloth does not have a flap in the middle for top down photos through the box's ceiling flap. So you would either have to cut a flap in the diffuser cloth or remove the diffuser cloth if you want to take that angle of photo.Summary: My photos were noticeably improved after getting this light box versus my previous photos taken of the same products without a light box or with a homemade light box. The lighting is great even in dimly lit rooms or at night, the light box is lightweight yet still sturdy, the assembly process wasn't confusing, and the price for the size of light box I bought was great! I will definitely be recommending this light box to my family and friends.

So far everything has been really easy to install, high quality and well lit. Im not too bad at using natural lighting for my product photos, but it can be unpredictable, so this is totally worth it for control! I’d say I got my moneys worth!
