      I use this mostly for reference shots when trying various wardrobe on talent. It is great for taking anywhere. Easy to store. Very lightweight. The large 5x7 area allows for showing the full person. There is a loop at the top of the background which is nice for hanging on a stand if you like. I haven't quite mastered collapsing this background. It's a bit tricky. However, it only takes one person to collapse it once you've figured it out. The material stays wrinkly but for my purposes this isn't an issue.

      I was using this as a background for various types of shots. I found the collapsible ring to be a bit flimsy compared to other brands, and the fabric was too transparent, you could look through the thread weave.When I tried to collapse it and rebag it for storage according to the demo [...] the flimsy plastic ring broke. [...]I would be hard pressed to buy another Botero product after this experience.

                I like the eased of use of a collapsible background for quick portrait or photography work. However I find the material is too thin and light bleeds through it. I'll be returning this item and go back to using a thick weaved muslin.

                        Easy to transport, use with a stand or even prop up with a chair against a wall. Folding it is just like smaller collapsibles, but with a little more wrangling. If you've never done it you can find good clips on YouTube. Zip cover is a little flimsy and the Botero info on it is a little too large.

                          This thing is just too easy. I had bought a roll of paper to use, and then decided to get the collapsible background for it's ease of use.
                          Indeed - it really works well. I find it easy to roll/fold back up and have not had any problems getting it back into the bag.
                          The white is white, and with a backlight strobe, minimal touch up is needed for post processing.
                          It is big enough to cover the background, but at the same time, not too big to be useful.
                          I plan on buying some more in different colors I like it so much.
