Quick answer
Two are three-panel screens of 102 by 71 inches, one in dark grey with a frosted powder-coated iron frame and 180 gsm polyester, the other with a steel frame and UV-protected fabric. The SUNALLY is four panels, 88 by 72 inches, on silent wheels with 240 gsm fabric. If you move the divider often, take the SUNALLY. If you set it once, either three-panel works.

Helios&Hestia 3-Panel 6 ft Tall Indoor Folding Room Divider, Dark Grey
The bullets describe strong privacy, a foldable and lightweight build, a heavy-duty iron frame in a dark grey frosted texture and 180 gsm polyester. A size strip lists 71, 102, 120, 142 and 160 inch widths in 1 to 8 panels.
SUNALLY Room Divider Privacy Screens, 4 Panels with Wheels, Grey
The page gives 88 by 72 inches, lockable silent wheels, a 240 gsm polyester fabric with PA coating and a notice that stains on a new screen should fade when left in a ventilated area. A table lists a maximum weight recommendation of 45 pounds.
RANTILA 3 Panel Room Divider, 6 Ft Tall, Grey
The page says 102 by 20 by 71 inches, UV-protected waterproof fabric and a steel frame, double hinged to turn any direction. It is sold in 1, 3 and 4 panel versions in beige and grey.
Worked example: panel width and wheel use
This is our own arithmetic.
| Screen | Panels | Panel width | Fabric weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Helios&Hestia | 3 | 34 in | 180 gsm |
| SUNALLY | 4 | 22 in | 240 gsm |
| RANTILA | 3 | 34 in | Not read |
A fabric of 240 gsm is one third heavier than 180 gsm (240 / 180 = 1.33), which generally means more opacity, but the pages give no light-transmission figure. The SUNALLY’s 22 inch panels make a tighter zigzag, and its wheels let you move the screen without carrying it. The three-panel screens have wider panels and no wheels, so they need two hands to move.
Choosing
For a light, quick screen, the Helios&Hestia. For a screen on wheels, the SUNALLY. For a UV-resistant fabric that you can wipe, the RANTILA. For darker options see black dividers, and for lighter ones white wicker room divider.
Questions to ask the seller before you order
- What does the 45 pound figure on the SUNALLY page refer to?
- What is the weight of each screen?
- Is the grey colour consistent between batches?
- Is the fabric washable?
- Can I add panels later?
After it arrives
Let the fabric air for a day if it smells new. Zigzag the screen and check that every foot or wheel touches the floor. Lock the wheels on the SUNALLY.
A second worked scenario: a home office in a living room
This is our own arithmetic and an example room. A living room has a desk in one corner, and the owner wants a grey screen to hide the desk from the sofa. The desk is 60 inches wide and sits against a wall, so a screen needs to cover the open sides: one side of 30 inches and the front of 60.
| Option | Width | Panels | Covers 90 in of edge? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Helios&Hestia 3-panel | 102 in | 3 | Yes, with 12 in to spare |
| SUNALLY 4-panel | 88 in | 4 | 2 in short |
| RANTILA 3-panel | 102 in | 3 | Yes |
An L-shaped arrangement of a 102 inch screen would give a 60 inch front and a 42 inch side, which covers the front and a 30 inch side with 12 inches to spare. The SUNALLY’s 88 inches would need a slightly narrower desk or a tighter fit. The grey colour blends with a wall in a neutral room and does not draw attention to the desk.
Reading the listings critically
Three points. The SUNALLY page has a notice that the screen may arrive with stains from packing and that they fade in a ventilated area; that is honest, and it also means you should unpack early. Its table lists a maximum weight recommendation of 45 pounds without saying what it applies to; we would ask. The Helios&Hestia page uses a “dark grey frosted texture” for the frame, so the frame and the fabric are both dark, while the others show lighter greys in photos that we did not use. Colour in a listing can differ from colour on the wall, so judge from the description, not from any picture.
Matching grey to a room
Dark grey suits a modern room with white walls and black accents. Light grey suits a Scandinavian room with pale wood. A mid grey is the easiest to place. If you have a grey sofa, a divider of the same grey can make the sofa read as part of a built-in; a contrast of black or white makes a divider stand out. Our black dividers guide covers the darker end.
Fabric weight and opacity
The SUNALLY’s fabric is 240 gsm, the Helios&Hestia’s is 180 gsm and the RANTILA page gives a description without a weight. A heavier fabric usually blocks more light but not always, since weave and coating matter too. If opacity matters, hold a torch behind a sample if the seller offers one, or ask for returns. A thin grey fabric with a light behind it shows silhouettes.
Care
Spot-clean the fabric. Vacuum or lint-roll dust. Keep the screen away from direct sun, which fades dark greys unevenly. Fold it with the panels in order.
A last check before you order
Measure the room’s depth and decide how far out the zigzag may reach. A three-panel screen of 34 inch panels zigzagged at a right angle reaches roughly 34 inches out, which is a lot in a narrow room. A four-panel screen with 22 inch panels reaches about 22. Decide whether you want wheels, since the SUNALLY has them and the others do not. Check the grey: if you have a specific wall colour, ask the seller for the paint or fabric reference, and be ready to return the screen if the shade does not match.
Grey and light
Grey fabrics absorb more light than white ones and reflect more than black ones. In a room with a lot of daylight a grey divider looks lighter than in a dim room. If you hang art on the wall behind it, the colour and the divider’s edge should not clash. A dark grey divider with a frosted metal frame, as on the Helios&Hestia page, has a matte look that hides fingerprints. Light grey shows dust less than black does. None of these points comes from the pages; they are general design notes.
If something on the page is unclear, send the seller a short question before you pay and keep the reply with your order: a written answer about size, weight or material is the best protection if the product arrives different from the listing, and it makes a return straightforward. Keep the packaging until you are sure the divider suits the room.
Mistakes to avoid
Assuming the grey is the same across pages. Shades differ by brand.
Ignoring the 45 pound line. Ask what it means.
Using a screen as a wall. It is a visual divider.
Forgetting airing. Stains and smell fade.
