Pros & Cons
Pros
The screen is extremely effective. Ignore any bad reviews if there is any and buy this. Worth every penny.
They work exceptionally well on small diaphragm condensers. It's bombproof when it comes to plosives and wind noises. I have the pencil condenser in front of me out of the camera shot when shooting video.

Competitiveness
Combine this a81ws windscreen with an sm57 to achieve a very, very similar sound quality of an sm7b for half the price!
Not that i have compared it to the sm7b first hand, but after seeing videos of the comparison and then using the setup, the qua... Read More
Most people should skip the sm7b and get a sm57 with this pop filter, and save a ton of money.

Inside the foam there is a cavity with a mesh

You can hear that mesh move around and adjust if you stick the mic in too far or if your mic doesnt fit

I removed the basket of the blue encore 200 dynamic mic and slipped this on and the tone changed completely
