watching the football right now on one. The manual screen, 4:3 @ 213cm. Very good. There is a little bit of curling at the edges but only on the black border so it is not noticeable. Retracting the screen take some practice too but got the hang of it. Very easy to put up.

Customer service from DRH was good. Spoke to them a couple of times and they were very helpful. Delivery was also prompt - 2 days after order.

Overall very impressed with the screen and the service.

Thankyou spencer,

How long did you have it before it started to curl?,was this due to opening and closing the screen?

Thanks.

I have a 5ft Slimline 240 screen which is superb. It does have slight curling on the black border either sid of the screen but the actual viewing area is totally ripple free.

The only i have is that ocasionally when the screen is put up or down, it causes my computer to spike and shut down. I have tried a VDR in the plug, Ferrite cores around the cable and connecting the computer to my mains filter, but it still causes problems. Normally when the missus is designing stuff in Paintshop Pro

I have not had the screen long (a couple of months) and the curling happened reasonably quickly - after a couple of weeks. The surface of the screen is ripple free and the curling you don't notice at all as it is only on the border. The only time you notice it is when the lights are on, there is nothing on the screen and you are looking for it.
