We have a large "finished" basement, and got these to hide the unsightly things like the water heater, sump pump & a corner storage area.  They are not only beautiful, but light weight and sturdy, very well made!  We got the 3 , 4 and 5 panel, and are happy with all of them.  Can't really come up with a con.  I'd get more if I needed them for another room, or in another color.
