Very good product
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 3 Panel-72''Wide
The material on this soundproof room dividers is really solid. The panels are super thick and do a decent job at cutting down noise. Now, if you're looking to completely soundproof a space, just getting these three pieces probably won't cut it. You'd need to wrap your whole house in them to get that total sound blockage. The wheels are awesome. They roll super smoothly and quietly, making it a breeze to move this room divider around. The design is really user-friendly and practical. This sound proof dividers are super handy. It works great in bedrooms, living rooms, offices - pretty much anywhere you need to divide up space and create a quieter environment. The customer service team is top-notch. When I had questions about the product, they got back to me right away and helped solve my issues. They're really professional and clearly care about making customers happy. All in all, I'm really happy with this soundproof partition. It's made with quality materials, the wheels make it easy to move, it's super versatile, and the customer service is excellent. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone in the market for a room divider.

Works as expected
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 3 Panel-72''Wide
These are exactly what I needed as a work from home person with the loudest air conditioning system in the Universe. It’s not silent, but that is not what I expected. The seller is amazing. The panels arrived without all the parts. I wrote the seller and they shipped the parts out immediately.
