It was perfect for a Tradeshow backdrop. We decided to attend the event last minute and needed a booth. I ordered it, had it in 2 days then got the vinyl printed and went to the show all within 3 days. It worked great for the show. I had to set it up by myself and I was able to get it up within 1/2 hour. I did have a little problem taking the booth down. Make sure that you get someone to help both standing it up and taking it down. It is light. Portable and fairly sturdy - for a trade show. The one thing I didn't think about is that I got the vinyl printed 8'high x 9'wide. It came in a 9'long tube. This was not very friendly fitting into cars and elevators. I would maybe think about ways to transport the actual vinyl.
