AB800 setup

I'm thinking of buying this tomorrow, anybody have got this softbox and grid, what's you take on them?

I shot with someone elses giant box w/grid last week and liked it, so I ordered the giant foldable for myself yesterday.
Just my $.02

cool, I was worry about the quality of it, like if it's gonna last or brake easy.

anybody else has this softbox?

I have used it, its pretty good but I prefer the large octabox for $10 more.

I was gonna go for the octabox, but the studio I'm putting together might be too small to control all the light coming out of it. The softbox is a little more directional light, so it might be a little more controllable in a smaller room. I might be wrong too.

I had the octabox grid for one day; it ripped the first time I took it off. Not worth it IMO. On the other hand I thought that the octabox was really well made and was impressed with it's quality compared to the other items.

I believe that both items have the same directionality to them more or less and that the different shape of the catch lights is the biggest difference besides the foldable octabox being reputed to being better quality.
