Fantastic
(5 out of 5) by S. Johnson on Feb 22, 2009 (Richardson, TX USA)We love the MovieMate72, we use it on the patio showing on a 120" manual pull down Elite Projection Screen (16:9), on the light brown wall in our bedroom and on the white wall in the garage where our workout equipment is located. We have teamed it up with a $118.00 RF-Link AVS-5811 5.8GHz Audio and Video Transmission System with IR Repeater directly to the Direct TV so not only can we watch movies in all these locations but also TV and with the IR Repeater change the channels on the Direct TV from those locations.

Exceeded all expectations. Truly impressive unit at a great price.
(5 out of 5) by B. LaPierre on Sep 16, 2009 (Central Florida USA)I'm so happy with this thing I could go on and on about it all day, but I'll try be to as concise as I can.
Simply put, I love it. I absolutely love it.
Suffice it to say this is one of those rare purchases that you can allow yourself to get excited about making, and then find out that you underestimated how excited you should have gotten. It has exceeded every expectation I may have had - it does everything it's supposed to do, and does it astonishingly well. Truly exceptional picture quality in terms of both color and clarity, ridiculously simple to set up and operate, and extraordinarily user friendly. I'm using it with (most of the time) a 100" Elite Screen, and my little theatre room has quickly become my favorite room in the house.
I also bought a 120" portable screen (an Elite ELF120NWH ezCinema) to use outdoors, which I've already done more than a few times. How cool is it to be able to (in 3 minutes) set up a very respectable outdoor theatre? Sittin' outside on a beautiful evening watching movies - trust me, it's a great time.
Be sure to buy the Epson subwoofer (Epson EPMM30SWS SUB-4A1 Silver MovieMate Subwoofer 40W) - I would describe the sound quality as merely acceptable without it, and considering how remarkable the picture quality is, that's just silly. Power up the sub, plug in one wire, the sound quality instantly equals that of the picture - you end up with a true movie experience that needs no apologies for either the audio or video.
Indoors or out, this thing rocks. Period. And the low price seems even more absurd after you see what it can do.
There ya have it. Obviously I'm a really happy customer. I can say with confidence there's a high probability you will be too. Good luck :)

Movie night whenever!
(5 out of 5) by Robin D. Matthis on Oct 1, 2009If you're not familiar with projectors fear not! for I wasnt either.
This unit is awesome! you've got the built in dvd player,great picture,720p....Ive measured up to 128 in.diagonally....the built in sound system will really suprise you!...watching tv, internet or playing video games are all easy to connect as well...lets see convenience plays a factor...when you're done put it in the closet or whereever...just have a white wall freed up for use! I cant come up with a negative aspect about this little wonder! Oh by the way watching football has never been more fun!!! Overall a great investment!!

Epson MovieMate 72
(4 out of 5) by Steve Rusk on Aug 16, 2009 (Harvey, ND USA)We are happy with our Epson MovieMate. A nice feature is the ability to center the picture on the screen both horizontally and vertically by easy controls on the projector. The built in speakers are adequate, also.
