Works exactly as advertised. Opens and closes in seconds and is easy to store since it's less than an inch thick when folded flat.
I've already completed my first jewelry job without a hitch.

Comments about Giottos ST130 Soft Light Box:
I normally shoot outdoors and underwater so this is my first studio type setup. Everything was as described and I am very happy with the flowers I have been shooting with this tent and the lights that were in a kit with it.
This tent is simple and very easy to fold up and stash in 5-10 seconds.

Comments about Giottos ST130 Soft Light Box:
Nice product - large enough to be useful, but also folds flat to be portable. Colored backgrounds need serious ironing (careful steam-iron best) to remove visible creases. May want to think about adding fairly powerful lights exterior, as I chose rather underpowered versions.

I used it for scale models and products photography. Easy to install and even easier to put away.
Only bad point is that you have to iron or press the background fabric they give you because it is folded!

Easy to set up and easy to use. The entire tent folds down in to itself and can be easily transported with the attached handle. The background cloths are well made and store nicely inside the tent. I have yet to find a negative. Very good product.

Bought this tent to use during the winter months when I can't get out. Easy to set up on the kitchen table and take down when finished. Lighting is simple and easy to use. The backdrops were badly wrinkled when the tent came and I haven't found a way to get the wrinkles out. Took them to a dry cleaners and they wouldn't touch them. Tried the steam iron and the wrinkles are still there. If that's the biggest problem, it doesn't stop me from recommending this to a friend.

This does exactly what it says it does. Setup and take down is easy. Changing backgrounds is easy, and the folded portfolio looks nice and takes up very little space. My photos are perfect using this light tent.
