Awful.
Color: Black, Size: 22"- 4 Panel
Easiest one star review ever. I'm writing this with bloody fingers from assembling this. Multiple poles were bent, none of the pole connectors worked, the hex wrench broke in my hand, the screws didn't really go into the holes provided (I had to get a friend with a press drill to widen the holes to make it work), there are sharp edges on the poles where there is a seam, and doesn't look that great once assembled. Easy do not buy, the only reason I didn't return is because it would have been tough to disassemble the half I got through in the first 5 hours of building (mostly spent fixing the product delivered)

Clean and functional
Color: Grey
This room divider is very functional and sturdy for a single-panel divider and stands securely without wobbling. The extra-thick material provides great privacy and helps visually separate the space.
The neutral grey color looks clean and modern, blending nicely with my décor. It was easy to set up right out of the box and didn’t require any complicated assembly. The height and width are perfect for creating a defined my home office space.

Very satisfied with this room divider. The construction is sturdy and stable, easy to assemble, and stands firmly without extra support. It separates the space well and provides good privacy. The grey color looks stylish and neat, blending perfectly with the interior. The quality fully met my expectations.

Not so good as expected.
Color: Grey
Pretty poor quality partition. It should hold up to normal indoor ware as long as to don’t touch it. If it is used in a garage (as I did) it will collapse.when subjected to any kind of a breeze at all. I had to reinforce the partition with cross-wires for added support and it was still not enough.

Functional but not attractive
Color: Black, Color: Black
I purchased this to hide my cats liter boxes as he refuses to use them unless they are on the finished side of our basement which is also my kids play room. This functions as I’d expect. It isn’t great to look at but better than cat boxes. Overall it might make a good backdrop if needed. My only complaint is the hex/allen wrench doesn’t fit in the screws provided. If you don’t have an alternative tool that’s a smaller hex it will be annoying to put together.
