I ordered a replacement (lost) one for a Lencarta stripbox recently and it's identical to the Lencarta own brand. Walimex. Most likely all come from the same sweat-shop - and similarly priced too.

Issue with cheap ones off of ebay is generally the depth of the grid i.e. it needs to be deep enough to work - lencarta are some of the deepest I have seen - if you need grids then check that if nothing else.

Grids need to fit exactly. They must be pulled taught to stay in shape. Lencarta ones are good - plenty of vanes. If your softbox has a velcroed edge and you don't mind a bit of DIY, get a larger one and cut it down.
They have been out of stock on the Lencarta website for quite a while now. I've been after one for my strip soft box ever since I went on Garry's studio lighting workshop and would rather get the Lencarta one.
Assuming Garry will see this thread, so Garry, do you know when they will be back in stock?

We should have them back in stock for the strip softbox in about a week. They aren't available for the 60 x 60 softbox, but I don't see why we can't get them made in that size, and hope to have some of those too - but will take longer
I'll keep look out, cheers.
