Are Allcam screens any good?

Probably a bit late to ask as i've ordered one
Bought it off amazon because of the price, and the size of the casing will fit exactly where i wanted it to go.
PCW92MM 92" Projector Screen 16:9 Widescreen Matte: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

Looks ok to me and it should be here tomorrow, but i wondered if anyone had any experience with this make of screen and if i should look out for anything in particular as i would still have the option of sending it back if they are complete pants.

I have bought a few screens from them before 1 for me and 2 for my friends the same size as yours and i cant fault them for that price but im now in the process of buying a 2.35:1 screenbut i will be keeping the allcam screen as well for 16.9 viewing.

Sounds like it could be a bargain then
It was cheaper on amazon than it was from allcam?

Re: Are Allcam screens any good?

Quick update:
Screen arrived yesterday, and i fitted it up a few hours later.

I have no previous experience with screens, but this appears to be of a decent quality without any ripples or wrinkles etc.
Fitting was a bit of a pain because i had to take the floors up upstairs to make some joists in the right place, but apart from that it was easy to mount.

The screen pulls down and can stop wherever wanted by simply stopping pulling and a small tug releases it. It does'nt do a slow retract,not to fast either, but does need to be held on to when putting back.

Instructions, (although not really needed), are complete jibberish and also there is a strong smell of plastic/rubber? Which will linger for a few days.

Over all, i think it was well worth the money.


Watched my first movie last night on the big screen and it was excellent
