This 5-in-1 is pretty cool. I also have the older model, without the handles, that I have been using for a few years. One thing I noticed, though, was how difficult it can be to hold onto it in the wind. My assistants always struggle with it. These handles make the product so much more user-friendly.I generally use the internal diffuser fabric and the silver reflector part of this 5-in-1, so I can't speak to the effectiveness of the gold or black sides. But I love the softening effect of the light when using it as a diffuser.

Great size and quality. I was very nervous when I first bought this item that the quality was not going to be up to par with other companies but I really like it. It ended up being a lot bigger than I realized and so it is perfect for all the photography I use it for.

It reflects fine, good size, packs small and light. I just need a good light stand to hold it, or an intern, which ever is cheaper.

At first I thought it was DOA because one of the zippers is essentially backwards/upside down in order to be able to flip the outer cover to get all the colors.Pros: Works fantastic for what it is and a bargain for such a big size. Handles make it easy to manage. Decently compact for travel, however still a good size even when folded up, and can be mounted on a reflector stand through the screw hole in the handle.Cons: Zipper quality doesn't seem to be very high. Makes me worried about how long the zipper will last before breaking, handles are fairly sturdy but may not last if not taken care of.Overall for the price you can't beat it. I think it's better to go with an over-sized reflector than too small and it's just barely more than a smaller version. Even if this doesn't last more than a year or so, I'll be plenty happy with it and would get it again if I needed more than one.
