The apartment I live in features a living-room slider with a view of the courtyard between two buildings that face each other. The problem is privacy, which most tenants solve by always keeping the drapes closed. But the Pacific Northwest is famously cloudy, and I've never found closed drapes an acceptable solution.

The Saigon screen divider is nearly opaque, but I can position it so as to let in a lot of light and still protect my privacy. The screen isn't heavy, either, so moving it is effortless.

Out of the box, I found some of the bamboo strips had come away from the frame, and one hinge was a little dodgy. I was able to get most of the loose strips to behave. I noted too that when placed on a rug, the screen is light enough to require careful folding to keep it upright.
