Supplied with no bag is included, but a transparent, waterproof plastic bag at one end is open, however. For only 22 euros you can not, of course James Bond qualities expected, but the screen has two functions and makes a very strong impression. The center bar is massive and can be clamped without dents in an umbrella holder. The spokes themselves are reminiscent of that of a normal umbrella, but should definitely keep some years under normal use. The spring is so strong that the screen is already spans when removing almost by itself. The removable cover is black on the outside with a white Walimex logo and has on the inside of a (also through the diffuser screen strongly reflecting) silver coating. In the middle of the coating has a reinforced hole to which it is attached to the screen tip. For weaker system flashes (such as my Yongnuo YN460, effective guide number between 25 and 30) are the 84 centimeters absolutely sufficient to illuminate Portraits.
Small point of criticism: The tips, which the reflector sheet is moored on the screen are not sewn into the cloth, but secured only through a hole with threads. So you should watch out a bit with frequent removal and plugging that these tips do not tear. This is somewhat strange and, in a shooting in which you want to use both functions, ever cost a little time. For that I would have deducted a star, but ...
In addition to the two functions, the screen according to item description, there are two small but smart hacks, with whom he caught up again for the price the lost Star: On the one hand, when using a translucent umbrella the removed tissue as an additional reflector use. On the other hand, you can raise the upside reflector cloth on the inside of the screen on the center bar and fasten the tips of the spokes. So around the reflector sits a bit slippery on the center bar (possibly with some masking tape mount) and it is not completely closed, but it has for almost 20 euros less a kind Octobox included!
Conclusion: Cheap and versatile screen for amateur strobist who do not want to spend much money for first light shapers. Would I buy me without hesitation again.
