Description
Looking for AlaskaMore than twenty years ago, a disillusioned college graduate named Peter Jenkins set out with his dog Cooper to look for himself and his nation. His memoir of what he found, A Walk Across America, captured the hearts of millions of Americans. Now, Peter is a bit older, married with a family, and his journeys are different than they were. Perhaps he is looking for adventure, perhaps inspiration, perhaps new communities, perhaps unspoiled land.
More than twenty years ago, a disillusioned college graduate named Peter Jenkins set out with his dog Cooper to look for himself and his nation. His memoir of what he found, A Walk Across America, captured the hearts of millions of Americans.
Now, Peter is a bit older, married with a family, and his journeys are different than they were. Perhaps he is looking for adventure, perhaps inspiration, perhaps new communities, perhaps unspoiled land. Certainly, he found all of this and more in Alaska, America's last wilderness. Looking for Alaska is Peter's account of eighteen months spent traveling over twenty thousand miles in tiny bush planes, on snow machines and snowshoes, in fishing boats and kayaks, on the Alaska Marine Highway and the Haul Road, searching for what defines Alaska. Hearing the amazing stories of many real Alaskans--from Barrow to Craig, Seward to Deering, and everywhere in between--Peter gets to know this place in the way that only he can. His resulting portrait is a rare and unforgettable depiction of a dangerous and beautiful land and all the people that call it home. He also took his wife and eight-year-old daughter with him, settling into a home base in Seward on the Kenai Peninsula, coming and going from there, and hosting the rest of their family for extended visits. The way his family lived, how they made Alaska their home and even participated in Peter's explorations, is as much a part of this story as Peter's own travels. All in all, Jenkins delivers a warm, funny, awe-inspiring, and memorable diary of discovery-both of this place that captures all of our imaginations, and of himself, all over again.Binding Type: Paperback

Almost perfect
Color: Black, Size: 2 Large Panels, Color: Black, Size: 2 Large Panels
The cloth material is sturdy and fits well on the design. Both sides are black and you can't tell a difference between each side. It's extremely light weight and easily movable. We got a double and a single and the single is used as a sliding door. It's definitely not the MOST stable thing but overall it's pretty stable, probably won't work GREAT on carpet. It's not see through at all, which is great, the only downfall is the gap between the two sides. We are using a blanket to cover the gap. It's not 6 foot tall, but you can adjust the feet on it to be taller. Overall it's a great product for the price and can easily be moved out of they way.

A decent buy
Color: Black, Size: 1 Large Panel
Easy to assemble, good quality fabric, the two horizontal "feet" are supposed to be stabilized by a knob/screw but its always looosening up with even the slightest move, so the only unfortunate thig is that it requires constant turning to tighten it if you adjust its location even a teensy bit. I used it as a backdrop to hold a design of balloons, then since the party I use it as a "semi" partition in a bedroom. Good value for the money since it can be used over and over.

Inexpensive Solution For Privacy
Color: Grey, Size: 2 Large Panels, Color: Grey, Size: 2 Large Panels
This worked for my needs to get privacy on a second-floor patio that faced neighbors about 16 feet away, and was almost exactly the width and height I need, and was looking for. As the patio was about 12 feet in width.
The fabric is thin, but not see-through, and works well enough for my specific privacy needs.
It wasn't that sturdy, even with the three legs, the top would kind of bend a bit from the weight of the thing, but I knew this from previous comments on reviews, and opted to use C-clamps and some screws to tighten it to the wall so that isn't an issue since I was outside and had walls to be able to screw into. You may have to try something different if using inside.
I gave four stars instead of five as the instructions past Step 3 really don't make much sense for Steps 4 and 5 where the two are connected and when legs are put on, but I was able to work through it eventually. They really need to break down the steps for installing the legs with better illustrations.
Also, highly recommend having two people work on it or at least having a second person on standby for certain steps just due to the size of them once they are together or for connecting the dividers together in the end.

Very sturdy & nice looking! Impressive & functional
Color: Black, Size: 2 Large Panels, Color: Black, Size: 2 Large Panels
I needed to divide our living room room in half and create a work room but didn’t want it to be visible so we decided to get this and use it in an L shape. It’s very simple and functional, but it does exactly what I need.
I’m contemplating hanging a photograph from a ribbon just to add a little personality to the side that faces the living room room but honestly, it’s much more sturdy than I gave a credit for.
I am a full-time reseller so I got foam from the hardware store and covered it in fabric as a background for taking pictures and I have a huge one that’s 6‘ x 3‘ plus another one that’s 4‘ x 4‘ both of which are hanging on the inside of this and it works great. I’m impressed!!

Weigh your options
Color: Grey, Size: 2 Large Panels
It serves the purpose but make sure you stabilize it. It's not a bad product it's extremely light and insecure without something to hold the base in place. Maybe it was just the one I bought but it moved a lotI would just bump it a little and it would fall over. The good thing is It is easy to set up and has versatile usage.
Also it's really big. Takes up a lot of space make sure you measure your room first.
