Does a really nice job creating a soft light effect, but the dimensions are not exactly as described (it's bigger in some dimensions and smaller in other)

Even though a 24" box will hold the items that I would like to photograph, the box is too small. For instance, the pot in the photo is only 10" wide, but the corners of the box show. The fabric also wrinkles. The backdrop is attached using a bit of Velcro in the corners. That means that the middle sags and further limits the size. Okay for very small items I guess.

It DID come FOLDED up, like it was made of FABRIC or something. It HAD WRINKLES, and CREASES that I was totally able to steam out. It's almost as if I'm an adult and expected a cloth product to need to be cared for as such. It's flexible, and cloth, so it's as stable and sturdy as a piece of fabric with thin plastic boning in it is expected to be. It's not lit, so you provide the lighting, but a desk lamp on either side provides plenty of light for pics It's pretty much already assembled. The different backdrop options are Velcro mounted, so a kindergartner can use it with success. I'd buy it again. I still can't believe people deducted stars because of the wrinkles. Seriously? Velcro shoe wearing...

The 24" size is very workable. I use a white wooden necklace stand and metal earring stand, both purchased on Amazon, and there is plenty of room for placement, either on the stands or flat on the base of the tent. I haven't used the front flap. I use my phone camera either inside the tent or using a telephoto setting from outside it. I generally use two long-arm desk lamps with 100w equivalent LED bulbs, one on either side, and get beautiful flat, low-contrast light. The white background makes color correction easy, and I just move the lights a bit farther away for highly reflective items like pearls. I'm astonished with how easy it is to get professional-looking photos with this minimal equipment. There is never enough light in my house and not enough sunny days for 9 months of the year to use natural light. Now I can shoot any time. It took me a few tries to optimize the lamp placement, but now it goes very quickly. No more spending hours in photoshop! The included background cloths are nice, but I would choose other colors than the ones sent if I had a choice. I can't overstate how happy I am that I got this.

Wow, I'm in love...... I never knew it could be so easy to get great light on jewelry. No more waiting for correct light from nature, which only comes for a couple hours through my window. I can take pictures anytime I want to!! I bought a couple of cheapy desk lamps with adjustable goosenecks from Walmart, and got some LED Daylight bulbs there too (saw Daylight light bulbs recommended on a youtube video by a pro photographer). Worked like a charm. I just need to steam iron the backgrounds.If you buy this, when you take it out of the zipper bag for the first time, hold onto the frame and let it unfurl slowly so you can see how it curls around, so you can do that when you want to put it away. It's really not hard. I had no problem folding then curling to get it back into the bag. (I do have experience with those windshield sun barriers, its same type deal, except this cube's frame is made of stronger wire).I love it.
