lightweight backdrop stand

I’m very happy with my purchase of the EMART Photo Backdrop Stand Kit (8.5 x 10 ft) The setup is incredibly simple, I was able to assemble it by myself in just a few minutes, no extra hands needed. It’s perfect for both indoor and outdoor events like parties, photo shoots, and banners. The kit is well thought out and comes with everything you need: 6 clamps, 4 clips, 2 sandbags, 2 light stands, 4 crossbars, and a portable bag. The adjustable design is great, both the width and height can be customized to fit your space, and the locking knobs make it super easy to secure. One thing to note: the minimum length across starts at 62 inches, and adjustments go in 30” increments, so it doesn’t offer super fine-tuned adjustments. It’s not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of if you’re aiming for certain setups. The clamps and clips are really strong, they easily hold fabric, paper backdrops, balloons, and string lights in place without shifting. Plus, with the sturdy base and included sandbags, this stand stays put, even outdoors. Another big plus is how lightweight and portable it is! Everything fits neatly into the included carrying bag, making storage and transport super convenient. Overall, I highly recommend this backdrop stand. It’s simple, sturdy, adjustable, portable, and comes with all the accessories you need. Great value for the price!

Incredible quality and value. Durable. Easy to put together. Nice bag for easier transport and storage. I had a small issue with a missing part and Customer Service rocked on replacement! I've bought plenty of stands in the past but only audio. These are quite sturdy for how tall they are. The horizontal rod is great for a light to medium material or banner. I wouldn't put a heavy carpet on it.

For the price this was perfect! We used it for a golf tournament and was quick to set up and quick to break down. My only two negatives are the bag is just a little too small to fit the empty weight bags and clips. The second is I wish it had come with more bungee loops. 4 was not enough for a 10ft banner. Other than that it was a great investment.

This arrived Saturday, super fast shipping. I immediately put it together to see the level of difficulty before my actual event. Very easy to set up. The tripod legs were a bit confusing as they don't come to a snap stop when you open it. So you need to kind of eye ball how wide you open the legs and hope you get them both even. You can have the legs narrow but i don't how sturdy it will be. The bag it came in is a flimsy polyester type bag, has three pockets one for each tripod stand and the middle for the two extending top crossbar piece, and a velcro closure and then you kind of fold it together and velcro it together. Some of the material on the bag was snagged already. i truly don't foresee this holding up well. i put a twin sheet up to see how the clamps would hold and it was sturdy. Wish it came with three clamps though, for more even distribution. My event isn't until april, but i am already excited to use it. It looks promising! Will update after my event!

I bought this for a backdrop for a Christmas in July Party. I have at least one other backdrop stand from the same company/seller. I am very pleased with the way this product held up. Set up was pretty easy, and it comes in a nice carry-all bag to hold extra clips.

Surprisingly quick and simple to set up because there are so few pieces (they telescope instead of having to assemble a dozen different rods). Lightweight but not too flimsy. No sagging of the top bar, but we only had tyvek hanging from it; I'm unsure of how it would hold heavier material like a quilt or a large vinyl banner. The 4 spring clamp bungees that came with it made a huge difference in holding the backdrop flat and smooth. The only trouble we had is that the stands and side telescoping bars have no notches on them to help make sure they extend by equal distances or to prevent the top bar from swinging right/left on pivoting side bars, so it was a little difficult to get them (and the backdrop) straight. Once we got it set up, we decided to scoot it over a few feet. That threw everything off kilter, so we had to start over again making sure all was even. A measuring tape or level and a way to keep the side bars from pivoting would come in handy during setup. This could all actually be an advantage, though, if you're setting up on uneven ground because you can tweak it by the smallest increments in almost any direction. In the end, I'm satisfied with the purchase and would recommend it -- especially for the price.

I had borrowed a backdrop stand from a friend before, which is why I'm so happy with this one. The friend's stand held a backdrop the size of a bedsheet, and the poles at the top were non-adjustable -- I only had the option of either using all the poles or omit a pole to make it shorter. The stands had 2 extenders. Also the bases were super flimsy and small = easily collapsible/toppled over. This stand has extenable/adjustable poles (the poles at the top), and the stands on each side has 3 adjustable sections (locked with tightening knobs). These tightening knobs also came with a clamp section which my friend's stand didn't come with. The stands felt much sturdier and has more weight than my friend's, which I was hoping for if it was to be able to support a taller and bigger backdrop. The base of each stand is also adjustable with a tightening knob -- an option that my friend's stand doesn't have. The top of each vertical stand had a nut that can lock the horizontal pole in place. This is also something my friend's stand didn't have -- for her stand, the horizontal pole simply sat on top of the vertical stands. What I was shocked was how big the whole set up is when fully extended. It literally felt like twice of my height, I mean, I had to load the horizontal pole with only 1 section extended on the vertical stands. I measured both the horizontal pole and vertical stands (with difficulty since they are so tall), and verified it is 10ft × 8'6. In fact the height is 1" taller than what the product said. Despite the horizontal pole being 10feet long, it only had a tiny bit of sag in the middle. I am really impressed because I was expecting more sag, as only understandable as the longer the horizontal bar without support the more likely it will sag. I am really happy with this purchase. It will serve us well for small at home or backyard parties which will be nice to have a bigger backdrop.

This is really a sturdy frame, actually better then I expected,, I will be buying another, and for the price it great.
