Before purchasing, I'd read a couple of articles online, about making a DIY anti-pop screen, at a very low price.

However, due to my relative inexperience (and poor DIY skills!), I decided to purchase a professionally manufactured screen and I'm very glad I did.

Despite coming in some rather unassuming (but thankfully very easy-to-open) packaging, this 6" screen is extraordinarily sturdy, sporting a flexible frame so that you can twist it into any position you can think of. The clamp is also very strong, allowing you to clip the screen on to pretty much anything.

The 6" screen size is also very large, entirely covering my Blue Microphones Yeti USB Microphone, and eliminating all the clicks and pops that had previously plagued my recordings.

If you're a home recording musician, this screen is just the thing for you - I cannot rate it highly enough!

Seller review
Item received in a squashed box due to the very poor packaging.

Item review
However, the item (which was a gift) is said to have lived up to expectations.
The clip to attach the screen requires a vertical surface, which is a limiting factor when using it, but if this isn't a problem for you, then it works very well.

difficult to get this wrong I guess, but it does what it's supposed to do and the price is good.

Does exactly what it has to do! The (sufficiently long) bendy arm moves any direction you want it, and clicked on your tripod it can deal with any position. Admittedly, you might have to move it around for a bit before you get it right, but that seems inevitable to me.
The actual screen is large, and certainly enough for my rather voluminous Msound Nove condenser microphone. Ah yes, and it does stop the 'pops' :)

pop shield works great perfectly covers the whole microphone seeing as a 4 nch doesnt do much i purchased the 6 inch and it does its job beautifully

As a pop shield it works as well as any other as far as stopping pops and hisses. Also a damn site better than the pair of tights I was using. However the reach of the flexible arm leaves a lot to be desired struggling to get stretch around my mic cradle to get into a decent position. The clip is pretty poor too due to the fact it's weak and causes the pop shield to sag on any normal mic stand. I have got around this with the use of my faithfull gaffer tape.

Not bad but you can get better from a decent music shop.

Would have been good if if were not faulty.

Spent a while looking at all the different pop filters. Started to wonder if i was looking too much into them!!! Decided to purchase this one and it turned out to be faulty. It clamped to my desk fine, however the arm which holds the pop filter would not stay where put and kept flopping down due a faulty connection point where the arm screws into the base (screw thread had been stripped).

Save yourself the hassle and pop to a local shop to buy one.

easy to use my son thinks this is awesome does what it says works so well good price recommend to anyone doing a live stream or video

Its pretty decent i guess but I find it har to use since my blue yeti mic is just too big. for a smaller microphone I think it would be perfect, so take that into cosideration when you buy it.

I only purchased this product in case I need it some time. I find ie not good to fit and even worse to adjust.
