   Easy to set up and take down. Works well in windy conditions, no worries about it blowing down the beach like an umbrella. Lightweight yet sturdy. The carry bag is small, won’t take up a lot of room in your car. Highly recommend.

   I have to start by saying. A lot of these pictures are showing it set up with a lot of sag in it. Notice in the pictures I’ve set up there is little to no sag in the canopy. I bought this for a week Long Beach vacation in Indian Rocks Beach Florida. Every morning I set this up then my whole family would use it through the day. There was enough shade for 6-8 chairs and couple of carts to be parked under it as well as a few toddlers to play in the sand out of the sun. If you set it up correctly it only takes about five-right minutes to set up. I found it was easier if you lay it out on the sand first and stretch it out to where it’s flat on the ground. Fill ALL EIGHT Sand bag weights. To fill the sand bags they are flat square material with a cord running through the edges. Lay them flat on the ground and dump sand onto them then simply pull up on the two cords that run up to the canopy it will draw up and close around the sand and make a bag. You might have to fasten the four extra sand bags to the canopy. Just push one end of the cords loop through the canopy where the other sand anchor is attached to the canopy now pass the sand bay and cord through the loop that is sticking through the canopy and pull it tight. Once all eight of the sand weights are filled assemble each pole one at a time. The bungie that straps the canopy to the top of the pole also holds the pole together when storing it bunches up in the bag. Each pole has its own bungie. Assemble the pole stick the canopy end of the pole under the double layer of one corner. Strap it to the pole then lift that corner up gently pulling the sand weights toward the pole till you can plant the pole striaght up and down. Repeat for each corner. One all four corners are up to around and place the sand weights in line with the edges of the canopy 90 degrees from eachother on each corner. You can gently pull each sand bag out till the edge of the canopy is pulled straight and it’s not sagging or floppy. Once you’ve straightened the canopy and tightened it now go around and simply straighten each pole. You’re now done. Enjoy! Take down is the exact opposite. Remove each pole one at a time. Break down the pole and place the bungie over the pole to hold it all together then throw it into the nice carrying bag. Repeat for each pole. Now go to each sand bag and dump it out. Once all the sand is dumped simply throw it onto the middle of the canopy. Repeat for each sand bag. Once all eight of the sand bags are emptied and thrown into the middle of the canopy just fold it up and stuff it into the bag. You’re now done and on your way. Took me about 5-8 minutes to take it down even in the dark. This canopy works very well and also allows a lot of air flow underneath. The larger canopy’s with the heavy metal frames like the one in one of my pictures to the right of this canopy don’t allow a lot of air flow for some reason. With all eight sand bags attached and filled it will withstand a good amount of wind and not blow over. I noted that there were a lot of other brand canopy’s set up on the beach with single sand bag anchors on each corner and a lot of them were being blown loose due to the wind. This one was not bugging. Stayed tight and never came loose. The key is to FILL the sand bags. I just used my hands to fill them and scooped the sand into the sand bags. They do have a blue plastic scoop that works well but takes longer. The kids used it to play with mostly. This canopy also comes with a set of metal stakes for use like at a sports event or something. The end of each sand bag has a small opening where you can pull the end of the cord loop through it then stick the stake through the loop. Super simple design that works very well. This canopy is NOT water proof. It’s designed to cast a good sized shade spot for hot sunny days. It does a great job at what it was designed to do. All in all I’m very happy. Even though it was set up every day for 7days for the whole extent of the day there is no damage to any of the canopy of poles or sand bags. Besides some sand scratches in the aluminum poles where the slide together but that’s going to happen. Oh and sand inside the storage bag. If they bothers you it might be a good idea to open it up at home and set it up so it can be cleaned off. I could care less it does it’s job well and will be used every time we go to the beach or a sports event outside. It’s worth it people, I’m 6’1” tall and when set up properly my head rarely touched the underside of the canopy. My brother in-law is 6’3” and he had no problem moving around under it.

   This canopy is compact, easy to carry and setup (but setup is definitely easier with at least 2 people). Highly suggest filling the sand bags first and stretch out (in an X shape) as far as possible. Once that has been done, the poles can easily be set up and adjusted for optimal shade. An added bonus (in my opinion) is that you still get some sun but significant SPF protection. I would still recommend sunscreen but I normally burn and ended up with a nice tan after several hours at the beach. In addition, I felt like it was very sturdy if setup correctly and completely held up again the wind! In fact, the people next to us had one of those fancy, expensive types and they had trouble keeping theirs setup! This canopy was also very easy to take down! I would certainly purchase again!

   The tent was super simple to set up and held up well in a 10-15 mph steady breeze. The handy carrying bag is small and easy to repack. One thing, they only sent 3 of the cinch bands that secures the fabric to the top of the poles which we over came with my wife’s hair tie! That’s the only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star.

   Tent went up easy, no sag, great material, and supplies, stayed up all day with beach breeze. Storm rolled in during the evening and 2 poles came down, but this was the first time we set it up so we prob could’ve angled poles differently too. However, IT IS NOT 50+. My husband sat under the tent on got really burnt. He was never in the sun except to walk to the beach. He wasn’t blistered, but he def should have reapplied sunscreen on his legs and face, and not used that as his only protection.

   It’s amazing how much more enjoyable the beach is when you are sitting under an ADesign Windproof Sun Shelter! There are a lot of beach shades out there, this one is well priced and fits our needs!! We used it twice so far. We bought the 7×8, & used 4 poles the 1st day & 2 poles the 2nd day, which we prefer for just the 2 of us. The pictures show with 2 poles. 4 people can sit under with 4 poles up, but I’d buy the 10×10 if 4 people were the norm. Day 2, we assembled in 5 minutes. I’m confident I can do it on my own, tho not necessarily in 5 minutes. Well made & the kit has everything you will need, including a nice large sand scoop! Read the directions and it won’t be difficult to assemble. Winds got up to about 12 mph and we had no worries about it launching. There are nuances we will learn as we go along, such as when using 2 poles, face it into the wind. Have fun with it!

   We are so impressed with how easy this sun shade is to set up and take down! On moderately windy beach days, the 4 sand bags were sufficient. On windy days we used all 8 bags and were really pleased with the stability! Also relatively easy to move back as the tide comes in. 2 movers was good, 4 was amazing! Family of 4 adults stayed shaded all day! Used all day, everyday for a week and all components were like new on our last tear down. Great canopy!! Great price!
