3.0 out of 5 stars High Quality 3M Product, August 14, 2002
By "readmyreview" (COVINGTON, WA United States) - See all my reviews
I had to visit the 3m website to find out more info. on this product. They had a chart and some info. The info. I was looking for was how much privacy was given. The only privacy built into this screen is for people trying to view from you right side or your left side. It gives them that black viewing screen. People directly behind you can read and see all of what your working on your computer. I find this to be a bit over priced. But with the free shipping I got at time of purchased made it worthwhile. Not enough of these privacy screens could be found at local office supply stores. Their catalogs were pricey! And not much info to go on either. Amazon should of put in their editorial in as well as the 3M description. On what and how these privacy screens work. (Percentage of screen info is filtered out of prying eyes.) Since their are quite a few type of privacy screens out their to choose from. This screen is number PF500XL. It hooks over the top of the computer which is adjustable.

3.0 out of 5 stars Helps with the privacy issue, but could be a lot better, March 8, 2007
We recently got these privacy screens where I work. The first problem was with fit: I have a Dell 17" flat screen, and although this product is supposed to fit a 16-18" monitor, it is an awkward match at best. The little tabs on the side of the screen that hang over your monitor are placed a bit too far apart to comfortably work with my monitor, so as a result, they wind up half on, half off. Furthermore, the tabs are supposed to move up and down to position the privacy screen at different heights, but they won't lock into the highest height position (which is where I need mine placed). In general, the screen just seems unstable and ill-fitting.

Then there is the privacy issue itself. If I place myself just to the left or the right of my monitor (ie, so my right shoulder lines up with the left edge or vice versa), I can still see about 2/3 of the screen; I have to move another foot or so away before the entire screen goes black. Similarly, when I stand up and look down on the monitor, I can still read it clearly as long as I am standing directly in front of it (even though I am above eye level). Therefore, someone walking up behind me and standing over my shoulder can easily see my screen--not ideal for privacy issues.

Overall, this expensive privacy filter offers some improvement in privacy, but it certainly does not solve the problem, and the design could definitely stand some improvement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well but cuts down on screen brightness, June 16, 2008
By Henri Defarge (Salt Lake City, UT USA) - See all my reviews
This product works as advertised. Unless looking straight on, the computer screen can't be seen. My only concern was that the filter does cut down on the screen brightness, but that is a minor complaint as it took only a few minutes to get used to that. It provides excellent privacy for a computer screen.
