Perfect experience !!!
I love this divider. It is long enough and easy to move around. The 360° hinge can be adjusted to any angle I like. Perfectly hides the awkward corner so I can't see it all of the time. And the light color and pattern in the panels is beautiful. I will buy another one.

Works well
It's lightweight and the right height and width. It folds easily in either direction. It was challenging to put together, but with help from 2 friends, we did it. I'm hoping it will hold up during winter weather, outside on my deck, as a vanity shield when removing my swim gear.

Great purchase!
Size: 6 Panel
I absolutely love this thing. I've had it for over a year now, and its held up beautifully. I used it in my apartment as a divider between a very large living room, and its worked great. Sturdy, no issues.
