I have the canvas for a few days and three films. Installation is extremely easy and mounted with dowels, screws, spirit level and stepladder within three minutes. With a little skill alone. The smell is there, but decreases rapidly. The outer sides bulge out against the viewer, but by distorting the black frame has not the image. The screen functional squeaks something. Externally, the screen 100 is opaque and opaque. She hangs in front of a large window - no problem. I am very happy so far, but I think that longevity could possibly be an issue. However, this is negligible in the price.
