Customer Reviews:

"Good experience. I had bought the same product some days before and I had a bad experience, but they refunded and I buy it again in other Amazon store. This time the product was shipped on time and in good conditions. I think that maybe they make mistakes but also have an excellent customer service."

"Overall it is a very good projector. I would definitely recommend it to a friend. I love the brightness, and how easy it was to set everything up. The only negative thing I can say about the projector is it falls out of focus in patches. It's not very noticeable but if you use it as frequently as I do can become a little annoying.
