Easy to set up
Simple enough for people to set up without having any prior experience with microphone accessories. It’s metal, not fabric, so there’s no muffling on the audio input. Only downside is that it’s not as lenient when it comes to different types of mics. You can still put it on, but unless your microphone has a solo stand, it won’t be put on the way it’s necessarily supposed to be. Great value for money. Nice look to it. Fits decent.

Tidy, effective solution to an old problem!
I didn't hold out a ton of hope for this little guy, being its small stature, small price and what I assumed were super cheap materials. But for the price (and the promise of free returns) I thought it would be worth a try. I'm glad to report I was very satisfied with its performance.I'm a Composer/Sound Designer and do a ton of voiceover as well. I did a lengthy voice session last night using only this as a pop filter, after testing it extensively for its intended purpose of removing plosives. The thing was great! It wasn't too bad fitting it over a large condenser mic and using it for side-address positioning. It is definitely a minimalist design, but the construction seems to be good enough to last a long while. Shipping was fast, it came packaged well and the "chemical smell," a review mentioned wasn't even an issue. There was a slight smell when first opening the box, but that is what I call, "New Gear Smell," and I actually like it. It faded fast once unwrapped, btw.I figured I would at least need to use one of the traditional "pantyhose-on-a-hanger" pop filters in front of this device, but I quickly found this wasn't needed at all. I POPPED the screen many times during my voiceover tests (harder than I would ever need to in a real session) and this thing prevented them all. I do not agree that it prevents unwanted room sound or noise, so I use a big shield attached to the mic stand to accomplish this.The only minor issue I had, is that it does affect the sound slightly, removing some of the high-mid frequencies (I have a deep baritone voice) but this is more of a nitpick, which I corrected using a little EQ to sharpen up that part of the spectrum. All in all, I love this thing! It's a great solution to a bulky and sometimes very ineffective solution.

Best used where there is NO worry or care of white noise.
I wanted this to work for me because it's much easier to deal with than the kind that attaches to a mic arm. It's a genius idea and it's really easy to get on and off, weighs nothing, and doesn't move. Not that it matters but it also looks much cooler than a foam filter with a clip-on pop.Unfortunately, feedback was that I was a little more muffled/flat than with a simple foam filter and clip-on pop and on playback, I could hear that too.Additionally, with my old setup and a moving blanket, I was able to eliminate the mild background white noise of air coming through the AC vent but with this filter, my cardioid mic picked up the sound of lint hitting the floor and everything else.So... Only use it if white noise isn't an issue, either because it doesn't matter or you are in an extremely soundproof space. I live in the South tho and there is no way in heck that I am turning off the air in the summer here though.

Solid budget plosive filter that bats out of its price range
I am using this pop filter on my Sennheiser Professional Profile, and it works great! I did need to flip it upside down in order to retain access to my dials, but that is hardly an issue. Maybe I had it upside down originally and this is actually correct. There isn't any branding on it thankfully, so it doesn't matter. As for the job it is meant to do, I can definitely tell the difference, but I do wish it were just a little more effective. That said, for the money, this is a no brainer. If you just want an improvement without the need for studio quality or studio pricing, then this is the pop filter for you. It even came with extras bands in case the first set break (not that I find that likely). If nothing else, this is an excellent spit guard

Works well
I was looking for a great little filter to apply to my blue ribbon mic. This brand did the job well and fits snug.

Works well, looks great.
It works as well as the pop filter that came with my mic while being so much better looking and way smaller.Installation was easy, but be sure to stretch the rubber bands across all four pegs for a better fit. At first, I had the bands only stretched across the two outer pegs and the microphone wasn’t centered and was wobbly.The look is fantastic. I use a cheap Tonor mic for some of my recordings and this filter makes it look much more professional. It also works as well as the filter that came with the mic, but that filter is a big circle that connects to the arm, rather than the mic. It looks terrible on camera. Replacing it with this filter made the microphone setup look a lot better and swivel around easier.Definitely would recommend this filter. It’s a huge upgrade over the big circle kind.

Great concept but not the best
For podcasts this is a great item where appearance is part of the equation. But, for studio recording it leaves much to be desired. It is simply too close to the mic. A wind screen needs to be at least a few inches away so the air plosives pushing through the screen can dissipate before reaching the mic. Logistically this cannot happen with this screen, it is simply too close. I am glad I have this, it was affordable but, it is not useable in the studio for vocal song recording.
