After reading some of the Reviews I was hoping for the best, and although there were some that were slightly Negative, all of my thoughts on this are now Positive. I was actually pretty happy with just the one light after I set it up, but when I set up the other, I was more than happy! Here's what I found when I got them both going... REMOTE: You CAN use ONE remote for both and they will STILL work independently of each other. So, one remote can make the opposite, make one gradually change from Low Brightness to High Brightness, and using that same remote you can then aim at the other and change that one from High Brightness to Low Brightness, if you wanted. So, the Brightness of each is controlled easily however you want to use them, On, off, color-shift, or brightness. The REMOTE is the cheapest made part in this set-up, it is VERY lightweight and it's very cheaply made, and very thin. I am only going to be using one at a time anyway, so if one breaks, I can use the other. Not just that, but they come with new bulbs, see more below. I had read that this was not the case, but, I tested it more than a few times, it does work. I do not know why some people said that it didn't. This is a BIGGY for me, I do product style photography and I placed an object on 'center stage' and watched as the shadows grew and shrank as I played with the remote's Brightness. Before I got this I had to use paper towels for a soft filter, I would also use the supplied light filters, but using them alone is usually not enough to get the amount of light one might need. (I am not referring to color filters, that is different) This is set-up as a professional lighting system, it just works! SET-UP: It all went together REALLY easy, and FAST too! These are not the best made light stands etc., that there is out there, but they are made well, and there's not much to screw up on these, and if you did break something, I am pretty sure it can be fixed easily, or, there may be parts out there that would fit, these appear to me to be very standard/generic stands, and of course, the light socket is standard stuff. MATERIAL: The soft box itself is made well enough, if you take care of it, there's no reason that you would need to replace it, there is no stretching of it when erecting the set-up, so no stress, no problems. The same goes for what they call the white "nylon cover", it creates a very soft shadow when used, and although you are 'supposed to' remove it when placing back into the bag, you don't necessarily have to, and if you did every time, I can't see where that will ever wear out either. It's made well enough and it should serve you for many years to come. STAND: The stand itself is sturdy enough, I don't foresee any problems at all, moving it up and down doesn't make it wear really, so this also should last for many, many sessions. Tightening and loosening the knobs are the only place that I can see that could create a problem when used over and over, it is the only place that might wear throughout time. Again though, these should be standard replacement parts from reputable online or brick and mortar stores. These are not the best, but for what you pay, they are worth every bit of it. If one broke during a shoot, just use gaffers tape until you get a new part. LIGHT: Now, for the light itself, that is where my confidence dwindles, not yet, I just received it, but that will more than likely be where your first problem will arise. I have zero knowledge of this type of bulb, although it accepts the standard sizes bulbs used in your home, the dimming and color-shift parts of the bulb is what sets it apart from the rest. These are not super expensive, but they aren't that cheap either. They are sold by themselves, or in pairs on Amazon and elsewhere, so finding them is not hard, or, that expensive. I believe that when you buy a new bulb (from what I saw on Amazon) you will also get a new remote, so that would mean that to get all of the bulb's features, you will need to buy one either exactly the same, or a similar one that would have its own remote, by a different brand. You could use ANY light bulb in this if you had to, you can use the on-off (only) switch on the electrical cord between the lamp and the wall plug. That would just be for an emergency type scenario. Buy a back-up set of lights, that would be my suggestion. One more thing on the lamp itself, they are 'soft lamps', not harsh, which is good most of the time. If you do end up needing a harsher light, it will not be what you want. As it happens, only yesterday on my first try I found that I needed a more harsh shadow, so I ended up using my old smaller LED lights. I'm sure that somewhere there are some lamps that are harsh, but these are not them. DOUBTS: I did have doubts, but as of now, I am extremely impressed with this set-up, and if it continues to work like it is now I am a really happy customers, of course, time is the big factor here, time will tell. Aside from that, buy this, and if it works like mine, you will not be sorry.

The Torjim Softbox Photography Lighting Kit is absolutely amazing for its price! The softboxes are easy to assemble, and the adjustable LED bulbs offer great versatility with a range of color temperatures from 3000K to 7500K. The lighting is bright, even, and perfect for photography, video recording, and live streaming. The included remote control makes adjustments super convenient, and the sturdy stands add to its reliability. The carrying bag is a nice touch for portability. This kit is a must-have for anyone looking for affordable yet professional lighting equipment. Highly recommend!

I love this lighting system. It is very easy to set up and once it is in operation, the remotes make the light adjustments very easy. Construction is average for this price range, but they do a very good job. If I had any suggestions for change I would like to see a differnet remote control system. Currently it is infrared so you have to point the remote at the front of the light for it to work. Even having an app for the smart phone would be a better alternative. The second suggestion would be a longer power cord. The cord on the light is way too short if using both lights and one extension cord. A longer cord would give much better seperation expanding the work area. Other than that, I recommend this lighting system for the beginner or mid level photographer and light studio work.

The Orjim Softbox Photography Lighting Kit is a solid choice for anyone starting out in photography or looking for an affordable lighting solution. The 16” x 16” softboxes are lightweight, easy to set up, and provide nice, diffused lighting for portraits and product photography. My only wish is that they were a bit brighter for larger setups or when shooting in low-light conditions. That said, they work well for smaller projects and are a great value for the price. Overall, I’m happy with the purchase and would recommend it for light-duty photography needs.

These have helped me a lot with my pics. The worst thing is that the remote will not control both lights unless they are close enough so you have to try to control each individually, but the right lighting is worth it and I have it set up now where they are close enough to control both. Lighting is still a PITA.

The lights exceeded my expectations. The delivery was incredibly fast, arriving even earlier than expected. The product quality is great, providing powerful and even lighting, perfect for photography and video. They are easy to adjust and set up, making work much more efficient. Definitely a recommended purchase!

The stands and softboxes were OK. A bit on the flimsy side. The main issue is the light output. There isn't enough of it. They lux output wasn't nearly enough. If you are doing close up product product shots, it would be OK. But as a halo light or for lighting up a green screen, there just isn't enough light output.

Great light package but make sure you have room to use it. Nice led lights, easy to set up and use. I use in an art studio for paintings--adds the light when the sun isn't out and at dusk.
