UNBOXING
Unlike most V-Flats of the past, our V-Flats fold to a portable size for easy transport (40” x 40” x 2”) and can even fit in compact cars—We know, we’ve tried. Weighing in at 7 lbs, every purchase includes a poly-cotton carry tote for even greater portability and protection. Opened to full capacity, the V-Flat measures 80” x 80” with a 0.5” depth. Because of its size, you won’t run into any indoor issues with low ceilings.
White on one side, black on the other, this isn’t just a sheet of half inch foam core. It’s a multi-purpose tool that reflects, subtracts, and blocks light. It’s also a highly effective tool for flagging light while blowing out white backdrops. When it’s not working as a light modifier, it switches gears to become a set element, acting as a backdrop, a portable privacy room, and a muscle-powered wind machine.
Dimensions
- 40" X 80" X 1/2" (Each side)
- Folded size 40” x 40” X 2”
- Weight 7lb
- Boxed Weight 11lb
In The Box
- 2 X V-Flat
- 2 X Carry bag

I have not had the chance to use it during a shoot yet. That said, the V-Flat seems like a sturdy, well made and versatile product.
Frustratingly, FedEx does not put the same value in them. It arrived late and pretty beat up with a puncture and numerous dings.
I emailed V-Flat with my comments and images but got no response.
Aleksei D.
Very handy tool to block light so fast
Mike D.
These are very useful tools in my studio. I wish they were a full 8 feet tall, but the shorter height does make it portable, which is a plus. I didn't compare the price of buying two 4x8 gator boards and cutting them myself to create a v-flat. This is a product that anyone could make, but its nice to have it done for you and I do like the carrying bag. I wish they added some type of strip or footing, both to protect the bottom edge and to make it easier to slide on floors or carpet. The smaller tabletop products can easily be made from foam core that you can buy from Staples.
Mark D.
Amazing product and even better customer service. Had a small issue (not their fault) and they went out of their way to make it right. I will have no trouble being a return customer and referring them to everyone!
Azi H.
This product allowed me to balance out the light in this small space making my shoot much more efficient with less equipment.
Claire A.
These have allowed me to set up for shoots in locations I wouldn't normally be able to use due to lighting, background distractions, etc. I am a DIY kind of person, but these offer quality and convenience I wouldn't get from making one myself. I'm glad I only spent a fraction of that time by ordering these.
Regina B.
very cheap made (
Paula G.
V-Flat world was extremely responsive, help, and fast. Couldn't of asked for a smoother transaction!
Jay M.
Although being a little large when folded, it easily fits in my car, is super light and unfolds to a very large size. Used it the day after it arrived and really help with my video shot. Great product
Afshin T.
great product little too short
Keith B.
Quick shipping, well packaged, will see how well they hold up in a working commercial studio.
Joe B.
I have only used the V-flats a couple of times, but I do love the diversity of the product! Also, one of my V-flats was damaged by shipping and the company quickly responded and took care of it! I was very impressed with the customer service. I plan on doing additional shoots with them and look forward to posting more work with them. Highly recommended!
Cookie C.
This didn't meet the quality I expected for the product. I honestly do not think it is worth the price.
1. It's seems like a set of foam board 3-4 times the thickness of a foam board you would use for a science fair project in grade school with a super duty tap and one end and velcro strips between two square for easy folding.
2. The foam dings easily, so you have to be careful with it in transport. While in use, my board was accidently bumped and fell over hitting a wall that gave it a ding and a mark.
3. The board isn't as seamless as pictured on the product page. You can clearly see a gap on the end of the velcro holds and the tape is visible on both sides
Diane J.
They are awesome! Compact enough for transporting and storing, but reliably sturdy and rigid for positioning when opened up. Perfect additions to my makeshift garage studio.
Eric S.
Made things easy breezy.
Well crafted, a happy customer.
Mark W.
I've made my own V-Flats for as long as Foamcore has been being made, when your product came out I thought " who in their right minds would spend that kind of money for a V-Flat" until I ordered one.
You have really changed the V-flat world, Easy to use, Easy to store, Easy to travel with!!!
I have 2 now and will be ordering more soon!
Keep up the Good Work!!!
Jan J.
Well I’m still getting used to it especially with the Velcro seams but I know I can fix most of that in post. I do have a damaged corner on my second one and I took a picture so I don’t know if you need me to send that to you
TAB S.
I love how they fold into a square and are easy to store or pack away in a vehicle.
Nargiza D.
I want to update the review I left a week ago. I received defective Vflat sets in July of 2021 but never contacted customer service as I destroyed shipping boxes, and I thought I couldn't return them anymore. Six months later, I left a review about my experience with the boards.
They immediately contacted me, and even a CEO of the company found time to send me a message, and I received my new boards three days later.
I want to say that I have never seen such an exceptional level of customer service. You people really love what you do, and it's inspiring!!!
You just got another loyal customer and I hope you will have many more in the future!
Appreciated customer.
MOHAMMAD K.
I am so happy with my new v-flats! They are very well made, sturdy enough and yet portable. They are also very versatile and will help me greatly as I get restarted in Photography with minimal equipment.
Alexandria M.
These really come in handy when blocking light and save you the hassle of having to construct them yourselves. I want to try the half sizes too.
Dwight L.
We were just trying them out upon receiving them and so far they have met and or exceeded my expectations. They are easy to setup and store, they seem sturdy yet light weight. Of course some normal wear and tear are expected, however, if cared for properly, these will likely last me a lifetime. Here's a simple jump shot using two v-flats as a background, two modifiers, and a couple of strobes.
Ignacio O.
I bought this set for my photography studio but i am also a musician and i made a quick video of myself playing bass using one of the two pieces in no time.
Loved it cause allowed me to work fast when i needed it.
Mary F.
I ordered a set of V Flats based on the reputation of this company. I received the set via FedEx within 2 days of when I placed the order. Unfortunately, one was damaged in transit. V Flat World was quick to respond and after sending them proof of the damage, they did not hesitate to mail me a new one. I was able to track the package and received the replacement V Flat in excellent condition. Although the boards are pricey, they are well constructed. I expect they will last. I am happy with this purchase.
Nichole S.
I have had my regular V- flats for years but it was taking up too much space in my studio. I’m so happy I finally purchased the foldable V-flats. It’s exactly what I needed.
Kim C.
I received the V-Flats yesterday and the quality is amazing. The company has also been incredible to do business with - how many companies respond to questions after hours? They do, and I was stunned to say the least. Highly recommend!
GARY Y.
The Vflats worked great, easy to use
Jesse W.
I purchased the Vflat as a solution to provide portable fill and reflecting lighting for portraits and product shots. I am very happy with the purchase! The Vflats are well made and come in a carrying case which is pretty easy to take on the go. The set-up is easy. Most importantly, the quality of light is beautiful and the size/configuration gives you a flexibility to control the lighting. I highly recommend purchasing a set!
Vivian P.
Used a black V-flat on left side
Libby S.
The quality of the V Flats is excellent: substantial weight product and well put together which make for an extremely usable durable end product. Shipping was quick and the packaging suitable for the rough and tough journey with the carrier with no damage ~ edges and corners are well protected. The simplicity of the flats and their versatility (black or white) makes them appealing as well. I would recommend these even at their higher price point.
Marisela R.
I love it!!! It’s been on my bucket list for a while! Already used it and I can’t believe I waited to get these!! So easy to use and easy to store!! Thank you
Amanda H
These are way more sturdy than the make-it-yourself version. Plus they have a cute carrying case (with a box that comes with images of female photographers- love!) and come shipped in sturdy well-packed shipping boxes.
They are easy to use, work great, and I am loving them so far!
Daniele S
Very convenient, but you have to be careful as it can get damaged. I am, however, super impressed with excellent customer service, and will continue to purchase their products in the future. I have only used it once so far, but was even more useful than I imagine. I love educational videos too, they show the many ways to use the v-flats.
Donna B
When I got the product (2 V-flats) I LOVED it. I just wish I could send you a picture of the subjects that posed for me. It is a must-have in your arsenal of light management. I also love that it fits in my car. I had a DYI version of this project it works, but these are so much easier to maneuver and the bag is wonderful to carry. I can not say enough about this product!! 6 stars for me!
David B
I ordered a set of 2 V-flats recently and when they arrived they were damaged in delivery. I told V-flat world and they replaced them immediately . Now I'm bringing them on every shoot I have. One a recent editorial shoot I used one to flag off light, as a reflector, and as a backdrop. I would've left a positive review regardless but the excellent customer makes it even easier to recommend.
Richard S
They do the job exactly as described. Super easy to set up and break down. Not so thick that they'd be cumbersome to quickly adjust during a shoot and not so thin where you can't move them quickly for fear of wrecking them.
An all-around winner of a product.
Tina D
My V-flats arrived quickly and in great condition.
Love the totes too...they going to make life a whole lot easier!
I would make this investment again in a heartbeat!
Peter S
These v-flats rock. So much easier than building them on your own and so much more reliable. The white and black sides are great for multiple uses I've even used them as privacy walls.
Brian
Great product, fast shipment. So nice to have a pair of v flats that can travel to locations and improvised studios.
Cliff G
We use our two v-flats everytime we are in the studio. They are so easy to use and really versatile. We can't say enough about how much we love them. We only wish we had purchased them sooner!!
Bill T
Purchased a set of the 2 Black & White V-Flats. I've used both sides as backgrounds as well as reflectors. They are easy to set up and take down. I take them on every photo shoot. Every Photographer should own a set of V-Flats.
Regina G
Purchased Vflat Foldables 2 pack and I couldnt be happier. Im finding great use for them in my indoor studio. They’re great to bounce light off of or create contrast. I like the cover with handles to store them or when I’m taking them with me when shooting at another location. They fit perfectly in my car.
Karen
I am an on-location portrait photographer. I used to carry those DIY large foam boards with me to my sessions. They would fill up a van size and so hard to carry around. When I saw V-flat it is a no brainer! I bought set of 2 immediately. They are folderable and easy to carry. Quality is excellent. I also love reading their articles on set-up tips. There are so many different ways using the products to create that artistic looks you have been looking for. I love both the products and the resources they provide. Highly recommend!
Ed R
I don't have a studio, and V-Flat World V-flats are portable enough to transport to a photo shoot. I've used mine to: bounce flash onto a small group of people, reflect light onto a single subject for portraits, and flag light on one side of portrait subjects. It works very well for any of these purposes, but it's easily damaged. Mine arrived new with a small dent on one edge, and I can see that if I'm not careful while transporting it and setting it up, I could easily damage my v-flat more. V-Flat World V-flats aren't cheap, but when you consider how much time and money it would take to build your own, they're reasonably priced. I can see myself buying a second one in the future.

Mark M
These are easy to carry around and set up very quickly. Makes taking quick headshot so much easier! I always have a white background and use a second v flat to create more depth and create more professional looking photo!
I don’t know how I lived without these
Jacki M
Attempted my DIY version and just wasn’t cutting it, should’ve save my 30 bucks at Home Depot and got this sooner. I use for bouncing and flagging light in studio and on-location.
Carla
These are easy to carry around and set up very quickly. Makes taking quick headshot so much easier! I always have a white background and use a second v flat to create more depth and create more professional looking photo!

Torrey
I love the v-flat because is so versatile! It helps me control light by blocking, adding or subtracting from my subject. It is also lightweight, so you can carry it with you everywhere !! In addition, you can use it as a background add some gels and your possibilities are endless!!
Bob
I love the V-Flat! It has made it possible to create and awesome photo shoot! The only regret I have is not getting one sooner!
Victor C
Easy to move around, set up and take down. Nice storage/transport bags. Shipped on time. Just all around good service and functional.
Karen R
When I purchased the set of v-flats I thought they would be made of strong material, but when I received them I realized that the are made of simple foam board with gaffers tape. For spending nearly $400 dollars I though they would be much stronger. Also, one of the v-flats arrived with a large gash. A little disappointed to be honest.
Art
Can't speak highly-enough about how versatile my v flats are (I have three of them now)! They fit in my car and work perfectly in my studio. I'm not the handyman type that can make my own and so these are so perfect for me. Great quality, fab customer service and they have the perfect carrying bag companion. Kudos for making these!
Gary D.
Quick delivery and setup ready to go out of the box. thinking of buying more and adding texture and color to them
Sasha
I have not had the set for a very long time but I have already found numerous uses for them, besides adding and subtracting light. I have also used the black side behind a sliding barn door setup to make the far side of the barn door opening look like a dark room, and keep finding new ways to use them. Have elimated some folding screens I used to use to hide other shooting areas and use the vflats instead. All and all, couldn't be happier with the purchase!
Jerome M
I called the company at 7 PM at night on a Thursday evening with questions. Not only did somebody answer, but it was the owner of the company. He was understanding of my concern, willing to answer any of my questions and showed genuine interest in how I planned to use their product. I wholeheartedly recommend their vflat products, and the company as one you should work with.
Kirsten W
Look, I get it. You can make these yourself for a less if you are so inclined. But if you are like me, live in an apartment and really don't want to spend the weekend putting one together and then having to spray paint one side a nice flat back...these are a Godsend.
The quality is amazing. The customer service is exemplary. The shipping is super fast. What more could you ask for??
Trust me, do yourself a favor and buy these instead of trying to make them. You will be glad you did.
If not, have fun making yours....I'll be busy shooting with mine.... Thanks V-Flats!!
Steven B
Just ideal for travel and bouncing light. Takes all the worry out of being able to travel. I no longer fear of the V flat breaking or not being able to take it with me! Yay!
Steven
Really love the fact that i now know that when i travel with these, it's no longer going to be a pain to set them up or put them in my car. I have a small car to boot and they fit perfectly. I'am about to order again!!
David
Customer service is AWESOME! I am seriously impressed with how committed they were about ensuring my order was delivered and tracked.
The product is very durable. Very easy to use and easy to transport.
The carrying case is way cool and makes it even more convenient for traveling photographers on the move.
Some people may be a bit concerned wit the price but let me tell you compared with trying to build this type would you equal if not a bit more.
Awesome product !!
Michael R
Just got my V-Flat in the mail and it was perfect. I didn't realize how important it was to have a V-Flat less than 8 ft. tall, but the dimensions are perfect and it's way lighter than I thought it was going to be.
George
It works as advertised. Cant ask for anything more. Do not accept anything less. Im happy.
Don C
I knew that V flats could be useful but held back for two reasons. The DIY build process seemed to have a lot of steps for someone who isn't very gifted in the craft department. And storage of large pieces of gator board posed a problem. Being able to get pre made flats which folded addressed both problems so I gave it a try.
Bill T
We use our two v-flats everytime we are in the studio. They are so easy to use and really versatile. We can't say enough about how much we love them. We only wish we had purchased them sooner!!
yechiel
Great idea! Finally a company solving this problem. Bought two and absolutely love them. Will definitely be a returning customer!
yechiel
I bought a pair of black/white V-Flats and I'm glad I did. I have used the white sides as reflectors to add a large, soft light source. I have used the black sides to increase contrast on my subjects. I have used them as large flags to control light contamination. I have used both the white and black sides as quick backgrounds for headshots. Folded, they fit nicely in my Toyota RAV4 and they come with a carrying bag that protects them, so I've been able to take them on location. And they store nicely behind my TV stand at home. My only complaint is the gap between the boards can be tricky to close when fully opened, but it's manageable.
Hector C

When I saw V-flat it is a no brainer! I bought set of 2 immediately. They are folderable and easy to carry. Quality is excellent. I also love reading their articles on set-up tips. There are so many different ways using the products to create that artistic looks you have been looking for. I love both the products and the resources they provide. Highly recommend!

I don't have a studio, and V-Flat World V-flats are portable enough to transport to a photo shoot. I've used mine to: bounce flash onto a small group of people, reflect light onto a single subject for portraits, and flag light on one side of portrait subjects. It works very well for any of these purposes, but it's easily damaged. Mine arrived new with a small dent on one edge, and I can see that if I'm not careful while transporting it and setting it up, I could easily damage my v-flat more. V-Flat World V-flats aren't cheap, but when you consider how much time and money it would take to build your own, they're reasonably priced. I can see myself buying a second one in the future.

These are easy to carry around and set up very quickly. Makes taking quick headshot so much easier! I always have a white background and use a second v flat to create more depth and create more professional looking photo!
I don’t know how I lived without these

Attempted my DIY version and just wasn’t cutting it, should’ve save my 30 bucks at Home Depot and got this sooner. I use for bouncing and flagging light in studio and on-location.

I love the v-flat because is so versatile! It helps me control light by blocking, adding or subtracting from my subject. It is also lightweight, so you can carry it with you everywhere !! In addition, you can use it as a background add some gels and your possibilities are endless!!

I love the V-Flat! It has made it possible to create and awesome photo shoot! The only regret I have is not getting one sooner!

Easy to move around, set up and take down. Nice storage/transport bags. Shipped on time. Just all around good service and functional.

When I purchased the set of v-flats I thought they would be made of strong material, but when I received them I realized that the are made of simple foam board with gaffers tape. For spending nearly $400 dollars I though they would be much stronger. Also, one of the v-flats arrived with a large gash. A little disappointed to be honest.

Can't speak highly-enough about how versatile my v flats are (I have three of them now)! They fit in my car and work perfectly in my studio. I'm not the handyman type that can make my own and so these are so perfect for me. Great quality, fab customer service and they have the perfect carrying bag companion. Kudos for making these!

Quick delivery and setup ready to go out of the box. thinking of buying more and adding texture and color to them

I have not had the set for a very long time but I have already found numerous uses for them, besides adding and subtracting light. I have also used the black side behind a sliding barn door setup to make the far side of the barn door opening look like a dark room, and keep finding new ways to use them. Have elimated some folding screens I used to use to hide other shooting areas and use the vflats instead. All and all, couldn't be happier with the purchase!

I called the company at 7 PM at night on a Thursday evening with questions. Not only did somebody answer, but it was the owner of the company. He was understanding of my concern, willing to answer any of my questions and showed genuine interest in how I planned to use their product. I wholeheartedly recommend their vflat products, and the company as one you should work with.

Look, I get it. You can make these yourself for a less if you are so inclined. But if you are like me, live in an apartment and really don't want to spend the weekend putting one together and then having to spray paint one side a nice flat back...these are a Godsend.
The quality is amazing. The customer service is exemplary. The shipping is super fast. What more could you ask for??
Trust me, do yourself a favor and buy these instead of trying to make them. You will be glad you did.
If not, have fun making yours....I'll be busy shooting with mine.... Thanks V-Flats!!

Just ideal for travel and bouncing light. Takes all the worry out of being able to travel. I no longer fear of the V flat breaking or not being able to take it with me! Yay!
Steven
Really love the fact that i now know that when i travel with these, it's no longer going to be a pain to set them up or put them in my car. I have a small car to boot and they fit perfectly. I'am about to order again!!
David
Customer service is AWESOME! I am seriously impressed with how committed they were about ensuring my order was delivered and tracked.
The product is very durable. Very easy to use and easy to transport.
The carrying case is way cool and makes it even more convenient for traveling photographers on the move.
Some people may be a bit concerned wit the price but let me tell you compared with trying to build this type would you equal if not a bit more.
Awesome product !!

Just got my V-Flat in the mail and it was perfect. I didn't realize how important it was to have a V-Flat less than 8 ft. tall, but the dimensions are perfect and it's way lighter than I thought it was going to be.
George
It works as advertised. Cant ask for anything more. Do not accept anything less. Im happy.

I knew that V flats could be useful but held back for two reasons. The DIY build process seemed to have a lot of steps for someone who isn't very gifted in the craft department. And storage of large pieces of gator board posed a problem. Being able to get pre made flats which folded addressed both problems so I gave it a try.

We use our two v-flats everytime we are in the studio. They are so easy to use and really versatile. We can't say enough about how much we love them. We only wish we had purchased them sooner!!

Great idea! Finally a company solving this problem. Bought two and absolutely love them. Will definitely be a returning customer!

I bought a pair of black/white V-Flats and I'm glad I did. I have used the white sides as reflectors to add a large, soft light source. I have used the black sides to increase contrast on my subjects. I have used them as large flags to control light contamination. I have used both the white and black sides as quick backgrounds for headshots. Folded, they fit nicely in my Toyota RAV4 and they come with a carrying bag that protects them, so I've been able to take them on location. And they store nicely behind my TV stand at home. My only complaint is the gap between the boards can be tricky to close when fully opened, but it's manageable.
