Shipping was fast! Got it in 2 days from when I placed the order online to when it was placed at my door step. Fan noise is tolerable. I would compare the noise level to that of a hair dryer on low setting. Plus the blower fan's position is off to the side of the screen and away from your seating area. So any audio equipment you may use, should cancel out any noise from the blower fan. The inflatable frame seems to be well made and didn't have any noticeable defects. Although it is lightweight enough for one person to move around, it's really a two or more person job. Only because you wouldn't want to have the clean white screen dragging on the ground while trying to Velcro the edges by yourself. The screen is made from a nice sturdy translucent material that has a good picture. It doesn't wash out the image or make it look “milky” (that's my best description) like those cheap spandex types you can get online for like $20. The only reason I rate this a 4 out of 5 is because it seems like the screen is a tad too big for the frame. I was left with loose edges. It was blowing out like a sail and wasn't as fitted as I would have liked. Other than that, it is pretty awesome to stand next to this gigantic monstrosity!! I can't wait to set it up for an outdoor family movie night!
