We bought these to partition part of large room off to make a temporary bedroom for family who was staying with us for an extended period of time. I specially wanted something that was very tall and these were perfect. We added a strip of wood to the top and bottom because we needed to use the full length of two screens extended - which required extra stability. Before we secured them with the wood, they were balanced and sturdy on their own (just too short in that accordion position for what we needed). They have a nice natural bamboo color and the construction of the screen part is really nice. I hope I can find another use for them after our guests leave - they’re quite lovely!
