Is the screen/mesh like the screen on a screen door? Flimsy? How durable?

It seems like a well made screen, very fine holes keeps all debris out of tub, lets water pass through. Took a few tries to fold up but, it really is easy. I would buy another one

Its like a screen door. It is bendable, which is nice, seems pretty durable so far.

It's a finer mesh than on a screen door. I've had mine for a couple of months and since it just sits on top of the Hot Tub it's hard to say how durable it is. It just keeps leaves, bugs and birds out of the Hot Tub. I do wish they made a square Leaf Net that would work better for my Hot Tub.

Its very fine and keeps small debris out as well. The screens are light weight, but very akward to manipulate, especially when wet. I have not figured out how to re-fold them to the size of the package they came in, so I have to store them in their "unfolded" format... Not exactly what I had in mind, but they keep the lizards out of the Jacuzzi.

Pretty flimsy. We got them to cover our hot tub so the Ducks wouldn't go in and poop. Problem is that they were so flimsy the screen sunk into the water some so the ducks just sat on top, paddled around happily crapping in the hot tub still! And the wire insde has already poked through. Ended up building our own framed cover criss crossed with fishing line. Works great.

This screen is thin so it can be twisted to fold up like a car windshield cover. The mesh keeps out small debris. It is lightweight good for storing away but needs to be weighted down if windy. Only got it this year so don't know yet how long it will last, probably two TX summers at most.

It's a poly type mesh, durable and flexible. Our spa is under a tree and it keeps leaves, droppings and small branches out of the water. Even works to trap heavy pollen.

Yes, EXCEPT is is a cloth type material and not metal like a screen door - perhaps it is like those screen curtains. However I have used it for 3 mos and it has held up well. It has a flexible metal loop around the edges some what similar to the collapsible sun screens you use in your car. Hope this helps - my only problem is get it to refold into original position but it is light enough I just slide it on and off my spa and guess I'll worry about refolding when time to put up this winter. Hopes this helps

It is a thin screen but, it is not metal like a door screen. The entire thing twists and folds into a bag about 1/3 of the size. I have had mine for about 6 months and it was invaluable while my oak tree was shedding. I have only damaged it while it was laying on the ground near the tub and my dogs kept running across it...that was my fault and not a problem with the product.

It's a very nice looking screen but it only hold up well if not bumped and is in a wavy position to create curves to stand up. So I'd think it would be a bit flimsy for use as a shower screen. As far as weather, I do think it might fade and get worn from sun. It would definitely not hold up to any gusts of wind unless supported somehow. My personal opinion is that it is definitely best for indoor use. You may need to ask the company regarding any outdoor application. Hope that is helpful.

It is sturdy. I have had my 50" lg on it for almost a year now. Just make sure you tighten the locking screws good or it could wobble. The doors are cheap plastic and I didn't use them. It looks better without them.

My daughter has had hers for a while now and uses it daily with no problems. She has a case for it and still managed to fling it across some cement last weekend without breaking the screen. It's scratched but no pieces chipped off or missing.

Yes, best screen I've ever had. I unfortunately fell the first night I used it and I have a crack in it but the good thing is, the screen didn't shatter

I have had it for several months now. Haven't had any problems with it. Great screen. I use it for mostly CAD work.

The screen appears to be reasonably flexible, sturdy, and is much like the screens on all monitors produced these days. I think that it is not likely to break unless given a sharp strike. I'd use the packing it is shipped in to protect it when moving. Surprisingly, I could find no information online regarding the type of glass. Perhaps you could find out more about its characteristics by contacting the manufacturer or Corning.

The screen slides into a hard cover. So should be very durable. You might want to get a soft laptop cover to be safe.

I believe the door or screen frame would fall out before the screen would tear. This was the best screen I purchased.

I have not installed it yet, but for other similar ones I have used, the screen is washable and should last fairly long

No the screen seems pretty strong. I have a very thing phone case on it and drop the phone the other day. Nothing happened.

To answer your question. The cover is durable enouth from any fall. I already drop it a couple of time without any damage at all. About the screen, the cover as long is close it will protect your screen. I have no problem yet with the case. Is regid enouth. Hope this help

We used the screen to make screens for our screened in porch. We have 2 big bouncing dogs and a wiley cat. Most frighteningly for the screen is our 2 little boys. It is incredibly durable. As for the visibility, we can still enjoy the mountain views but it is not as good as a traditional screen. looking through it from a few feet away is very easy but if you try to stand with your face close you notice more of a reduction in visibility. For us it is well worth it considering that we have a dog door and all the pets can access the porch. I have seen the cat trying to climb the screen, several baseballs hit it, sticks poke it in passing and there are is no damage yet after at least 5 months.

The screen material feels like a thin cloth material so I would imagine it would be easily ripped/punctured if someone ran into it. Might want to look at something that's made of a harder, more durable material.

The previous one I had from an actual verizon store did not withstand harsh impact. I dropped it a few times am my screens cracked, front and back! But with this one, it's been pretty good. I've had it in water, heat, and dropped it only one or twice and it's worked perfectly. It depends on how well you take care of it as well, my last one was white and got dirty and scratched fast.

The screen is plastic but it's good because in case you drop it or have kids no worries.

Although I have just had my ACER for a few weeks, I feel the screen hinges are VERY sturdy. My son has this same model and has been very happy with it.
