AIKEAIKESI Acoustic Diffuser - 11.8 X 11.8 X 1.2 Inches Sound Proof Wall Panels,Wood Acoustic Panels Reduce Distinct Echo Preserve Room Liveliness,Decorative Sound Panels for Walls

Looks like an interesting art piece AND diffuses as it should. Let’s be clear, this is a diffuser, not an absorber. It takes incoming sound, and scatters it rather than absorbing it. Diffusers are an important part of overall room treatment. I also think it looks really cool. I had it framed at hobby lobby for a reasonable price. Makes it much easier to hang and move, if needed. In the end, I used eight pieces. I had to order 10 total to end up with eight that were in good enough shape, so I just returned two of them. On two of them, the blocks had fallen off the wooden backing, but I think that was due to poor packaging, and I don’t know who’s at fault for that. One unit was shipped in an envelope, a plastic envelope, with a single layer of thin bubble wrap. Totally insufficient. But the rest came very well packaged in a box. All in all, I am very pleased with the look and the performance together with other room treatments. Because this is in my main living room. I needed something that was both functional and looked interesting so it wouldn’t detract from the room’s feeling and the style. Works perfect for me!

I had one of the five I purchased warp on me. It literally pulled the plaster and paint off my wall. But, the other four were gorgeous. They’re effective and I think they do a lot for my space. The one that warped and ripped up my wall is still hanging, it’s only really noticeable when you sit near it. But, I don’t think I could actually take it down without it pulling a huge chunk out of my paint and mud.

These are diffusion panels, not absorbers. I needed a little more diffusion, found these, and the price was right! Well built, easy to install with some sticky tape and small nails just to make sure.

This is a great buy, looks really nice.. my only gripe, is that they shipped this in a soft bag, this is delicate, and I took a little bit of damage in transit.. so a hard box should have been used. Second, there is NO WAY to hang this up. There’s no hooks or anything, so your going to have to be creative. If this is shown on a wall, you would assume it has a way to hang it up? Nope.. other then that.. Go for it. UPDATE: So I bought a second one, and this one came in a box, so that helped. Thank you guys. NOW, next thing that killing me is that when this one came it was completely flat, now after 7 days.. it begins to warp, my first one warped pretty bad but did realize if it came like that. So don’t think u will cover a wall with these because it will NOT look pretty. Hopefully they can correct this issue.

This product works as well as people say. However, you are getting a compromised product that has no quality control whatsoever and is not presented as a new product. It's like having a poor used handmade product that will not hold up because of misaligned wood, poor workmanship, glue splatter, etc. It is asking for trouble to order this as I have ordered two of them and they will be returned immediately. This is not a reliable product in any sense of the word. Look elsewhere if you don't want headaches.

As room treatments go, these are nice for the price and definitely effective. Easy mounting with 3M Command strips—just be sure to clean the surfaces first.

I am very impressed with these, they look good and deflect sound very well. But they are not flat. I suppose the glue attaching blocks to backboard shrank and pulled the front tighter than back side. All corners of sq ft panels pull away from wall 1/4 to 1/2 inch. The colors they used are beautiful.

I bought 3 and place behind a couch in my listening area. They definitely reduce reflection of audio bouncing from the wall. When sitting on the couch all you hear are the speakers facing you. The reflection behind is dispersed.

Bad when fix with tape it distorts as wood plate is thin and can not fix

Looks great and was easy to stick using 3M command strips.

While they do look great on pictures, in real life they feel a bit cheaply made. I ordered 12 to make a diffusing / accent wall in my studio. Most of them have an issue where the back plate bow and make it almost impossible to install with double sided tape, PL glue or command strips without requiring screws or nails that are hard to put without ruining the look. 3-4 of them are not really flush on all the sides leaving bigger gaps when trying to put a few side by side. While they would probably perform OK as diffusion panels if « aesthetic perfection » is important to your setup, I would not recommend it.

J'ai ces diffuseurs depuis des années et au fur et à mesure du temps, le fond se déforme et plusieurs pièces se sont déroulées à cause de ça. Non recommandé.

Each piece is individually packed, there’s zero damage from shipment. I did have several slightly curled in my previous purchase, placed them under a 45lb barbell for a week or two to flatten them out. Then sticking them on wall with 3M commander strips, been a year, they never curled again nor fell off.
