Five stars for sure.
We love this projector! That is all you really NEED to know. The rest is just details.
It has a great picture! First off, I am projecting about 5-6' from the wall. I painted the wall a low-sheen very light grey. With this being a short-throw projector, the screen is about 9' diagonally! It makes for a great screen. Bluray 1080p has the best picture of course, HD 720p looks pretty good too. Don't even try a SD picture on a screen this big. No projector in the world can make that look good. Movies are awesome to watch on it. I have also watched several football games and been quite pleased.
There is no "lag" or "shadowing" that I notice. The kids (and I) play video games on it too. the games look amazing on this! When we play MarioKart in four player mode we each have our own 55" screen to use! It's awesome! It is definitely a hub for guests. I never knew it could be so fun (and inexpensive) to have a theater in our house.
The bottom line is this: you cannot be unhappy with this projector. The picture is amazing, bright, and very fluid. There are no loud fans (the fan is barely audible) to bother you. It shows up strong in a well lit room and looks amazing in a dark room. It is ultra portable.
I research and research and then research some more when I'm making a large purchase like this. I obsess (as my wife would say) over all the details and specs before I make a purchase. I rely heavily on reviews like this. You don't need to obsess. Buy this one and be happy like me. :)
I've had mine up and running for over six months now and we all love it!
The first photo (football game) was before I painted the wall. The second photo is when the wall was half-painted. I include that so you can see what a difference the wall paint makes. I ordered the paint online from Home Depot for about $6. Just search theater screen paint.
10/28/15 -I have added a picture of the paint I purchased from Home Depot if anyone is interested. That little 8oz jar was enough to do my screen.
