Light Tent/Boxes

Anyone have one of these light tent/boxes?

Seen them on Ebay cheap and was going to buy one but just wondered if anyone had any feedback on them.

How big are they ? , I bought a 18" one from Maplin last year and find it pretty good/useful

They come in different sizes.

I was just going to try a small one 12" square.
