Questions & Answers
To catch anything that the filter would miss, I used a square plastic container with a lid, cut a hole in the upper part the size of the hose, and filled it with water. In place of a window, it works perfectly.
Venting, such as through a window, is a good idea. Of course, it depends on the type of spray. You can use a DIY filter box instead of an exterior vent, but anything harsher or as harsh as alcohol-based thinners is likely to cause health problems.
Hello and thank you for your time. Thanks.
All three led lights were included in my package.

This is a fantastic product; I'm new to airbrushing (I use it to paint Gunpla), and it's exactly what I needed. This is a great option for indoor painting if you don't have a designated work space outside. I only have a couple of criticisms for this product: first, I wish it had a separate switch to control the LEDs separately. I don't always require ventilation; I simply require a bright working environment. Second, it is louder than it appears in the advertisements. Less than 47dB is mentioned in the description. At around 70 decibels, it was picked up by my watch. It's not a deal breaker, but it makes hearing anything else outside of your workspace difficult. I had an alarm go off in my house last night, and I didn't hear it because I was working on a project close to this booth; I'll partially blame this on the fact that you have to turn up the volume on any other device to hear it, but 70db is much higher than the 47db it claims, so keep that in mind before buying. Aside from those two issues, this is a fantastic solution.
First and foremost, this is a spray booth, with the goal of sucking fumes from the sprayer into the filter and then out the exhaust. As a result, any and all complaints about the unit being too loud will be considered. It's due to the suction strength! You won't get good suction from a quiet device, so put up with it! Second, the lighting. br>br>WOWbr>br> It's fine, in fact, it provides excellent all-around coverage of the object you're painting. For those who want a separate light switch so they can just turn on the lights, this is for you. To recap, this is a SPRAY BOOTH for sucking fumes away from the sprayer! There are far better options available for much less than $100 if you want/need a light station. The booth will still function if the lights are not installed. NOT the other way around is the key here! br>br>The unit is light and portable; my only "complaint" is that the extra exhaust components do not come with any sort of storage or carrying device, making it even more portable (though a grocery bag will suffice).
Overall, this will accomplish what it sets out to do, but boy, is it loud! I used a decibel meter and found it to be well above the advertised decibel levels! It's also a pity that you can't just use the lights because the power goes through the fan and into the lights. Suctioning is poor, and I'm not sure if it works. Would return, but the thought of packing it up and sending it back exhausts me.
There are three lights in this booth: one above the work area and two near the back, near the filter. If you're looking at your painting, you don't want the lights behind it shining into your eyes and backlighting the project, as this makes it difficult to see what you're doing and can cause eye strain over time. It does the job of sucking any excess paint back into the filter, so it isn't terrible, but it is VERY loud, as I've read in other reviews. Which is unfortunate because one of my hobbies is listening to music or watching videos on YouTube, and the fan makes it difficult to hear anything. It wouldn't be so bad if I could keep the lights on while turning the fan off when I'm not using it. If I could go back in time, I would not buy this booth and instead look for one with better lighting and a dedicated power switch for the fan and lights so you can turn on only what you need at the time; there are much better options out there.
To be honest, this is way too expensive for what you get, which is essentially a box with an overly loud fan and a plastic tube with an excessively large diameter. br>br>I have computer fans that are ten times quieter and move air more efficiently. This is literally louder than my clothes dryer, which has a squeaky belt that I haven't had time to fix and is likely as old as I am. br>br>I liked how this could be folded and stored; I'm thinking of getting a foldable TV dinner table and putting this on it when I need to airbrush something, then putting it away when I'm not. Because I live in a studio apartment, every square foot counts. I also liked that the booth has two "stages," so I folded in the outer layer as if I were putting it away while leaving the airbrush in place. In addition, because you're closer to the filter, the fan can work more efficiently because it doesn't have to work as hard to pull the air away. Furthermore, it's quite large. br>br> This is taking up far too much room on my small desk. When working with an airbrush on miniature models like Warhammer or Dwarf, there's no need to have this much depth in general. Workspace that was 11" high, 12" wide, and 8" deep was all I needed. However, there is an additional 5" of space behind the workbox. Who knows for what reason. Certainly not for a single 80mm fan with a typical thickness of one inch. Is there something to power the LEDs? I guess? But wait, there's more: it also comes with a hard plastic funnel that connects to a 4-foot hose. The hose is 5" wide and can stretch a few feet, with the hard plastic extending another 8 feet. This tube can only bend a small amount, so the overall length is 10". It's about 30" deep when you factor in the depth of the device and the pipe, and my desk is only 19" deep. I would have preferred that this device be half as deep overall so that it would take up less desk space. It can be placed on my desk by flipping the flaps on the outer layer back and angling it. barely. Even my larger computer desk is only about 24" deep. Unless I want to completely re-design my office, my maximum allowed space for a desk is about 32"x40". br>br>I was looking for a tube about 2-inches wide (and even then, the 32" depth can't be increased, so things have to be wider)br>br>I was looking for a tube about 2-inches wide (and even then, the 32" depth can't be increased, so things have to be wider)br>b 3" wide, highly bendable, and a fan that is quiet but produces a lot of "CFM. " What is this fan's excuse for claiming 4 cubic feet and adding 30DBa? There is a brand of computer fans that claims to move around 60 cubic feet of air per minute at 18DBa, so what is this fan's excuse for claiming 4 cubic feet and adding 30DBa? br>br>Now, I understand that this is pretty "industry standard" with other Airbrush booths, but I think it's ridiculous that people are willing to pay triple the price for something that's only worth $50 in parts. I'll keep it, but I felt compelled to express my dissatisfaction with the less-than-stellar performance, given the high price.
My spray booth is one of my favorites. I haven't photographed models because I was working outside in a bad environment. I'm now ready to do it inside, away from the fumes. br>Both the light and the turntable are excellent. I can get closer to the model and paint without damaging it. br>It came with instructions on how to put it together. There isn't a single piece of information included. It is, however, relatively simple to figure out.
