I like it in that it is larger than most light boxes I could buy, I can move the Ott light around under the shoe boxes to get optimal light, it doesn't take up additional room in my studio, and I didn't have to buy anything.
I'm with you Dunster, I have a light I bought from Jenny Byers online store that lays out flat, plexiglass held up by 2 blocks of wood Hubby cut for me- Same piece of plexiglass I use to audition quilting designs on my tops- easy to set up & put away, very little cost.
