   So I did the smart thing and read the instructions before trying to put the shade up. It was fairly easy to do by myself and I found myself making some ‘adjustments’ to the shade to keep it standing correctly. I needed to fit the two top pieces together and doing so made the shade a bit more stable. When collapsing the shade just remember the joints pull apart then fold, it is really simple otherwise you might break the leg at the support point then the shade will be not so sturdy. The floor is a bit thin, I think I’ll have to get a furniture pad and use it to give it a bit more protection. The window flaps work well and I spent some time in the shade and without a breez, the shade was pretty hot. I didn’t have the shade flaps folded down completely and it may have contributed to the heat. I also live in Arizona and it was close to 100 degrees when I put it up. It took a couple of seconds to figure out how to roll up the shade and get it back in the bag but all went smoothly and it fit back in the bad with no problems. You’ll be lucky to get two people and a couple of chairs in this. I have a small camp stool in the shade and sitting in it my head is almost touching the front edge. I’m 5’9″ and my boys are about the same size as me. It does have some limitations size wise but there will be plenty of storage area behind a couple of camp chairs to make for an enjoyable day trip outing. You could get several people inside the shade if they didn’t have furniture or coolers. Pretty good for two people.

   This sun shelter was exactly what I was hoping for. It is roomy inside and the windows allow for decent ventilation. It was easy enough to put up. My only criticism is with cinching the line at the top. I found this pretty awkward to do especially if you aren’t very tall. I had to pull the whole shade back and towards me in order to get enough leverage on it which means I could not stake the front beforehand. In a very light breeze I needed another set of hands to hold down the front. That was the only thing that kept me from rating it with 5 stars.

   I looked all over whatcampingtent.com’s reviews for similar products to this one for months, husband doubtful as to the worthwhile of such a product for only using for four days, but I am so glad I found this because it made a huge difference in how long we were able to stay out and our comfort level in the intense FL summer sun. This would be an awesome tent to bring to sports meets, the park, or hang out in the backyard. I needed something easy to set up and take down, something we could use for full body shade and privacy if needed but definitely wanted the three sided screens (some tents I noticed only have one or two windows), a home base of sorts so that when we were down at the water, either myself or my kiddo could locate our tent and make our back to base camp and something strong enough that it wouldn’t blow over in a usual ocean breeze. This tent checked all the boxes. It was definitely larger than I anticipated – I did not get the tape measure out when I saw the dimensions online, but I was looking for something that would easily fit two adults and my kiddo, and it’s safe to say that this tent could safely fit three adults and some things side by side (not sure about beach chairs – we didn’t have any). It’s also safe to say we could easily locate this from the waterside as it was large enough to spot without being ridiculous, and no one else had a bright green tent so I loved being able to easily find our spot. My 3.5 year old could also spot it by himself down at the water’s edge and not get lost, so that was awesome. We took it to Daytona, where the wind isn’t horrible, but is capable of blowing over a flimsy umbrella or tent on a normal day. The only time we had issue in this regard was when the wind really kicked up because a severe storm was rolling in, and well, I can’t fault it for that because people were nearly getting blown over. It merely blew over though and flattened a bit, but it did not blow away and nothing broke or snapped. I never used the stakes and ties, but we did fill the sandbags with sand and that was more than adequate because the side sand pouches are pretty sizable and sand is heavy – you can add some water to make it heavier. It was also weighed down with the cooler bag I brought and a couple other things, but hardly anything other than that. It was also critical that this tent be easy to transport and easy to set up and take down, because it would be just me and my kiddo, so I was carrying this, a medium size shoulder bag cooler, and another large beach bag filled with the rest of our items/toys. I practiced setting it up in our living room beforehand, but I really didn’t have to bother. I am not a camper, and those kids tents that magically fold up into a circle with the wires inside DRIVE ME NUTS, so I think it’s safe to say I’m not the most experienced at tent set ups. This tent made it really easy though – they have printed instructions on a piece of fabric that is attached to inside of the carrying bag for easy access, and it seriously took me less than a minute to put up and break back down again. I’m tall at 5’9″, but since you basically need the tent on its side to pop it out anyway, a smaller person could have still managed this. I was also happy it was so quick because having a kid bouncing up and down to get down to the water and trying to figure out a new tent set up isn’t fun, and it was nice we could pack up and go so quickly once the storm rolled in. Overall, this thing is amazing. If you have kids at the beach, this is a lifesaver. Even if it’s just you, it’s big enough to take a nap in, and a better retreat from the sun seeing as you have a couple shaded sides and you can cut down on the UV exposure a bit, unlike an umbrella. It was also nice to be able to hang our towels or wet shirts on the rods on the roof to dry off and clip the wet puddle jumpers to hang dry.

   It works quite well but on first use we saw that the fabric has several very obvious faults where the reflective layer is missing. Holes will likely appear at these points.

   There’s nothing bad I can say about this tent!
   I bought it in the hopes that it would be easy to set up. And it is!! What I like the most is that after a long day at the lake or beach I don’t have to struggle to pack this tent! It seriously collapses in two minutes and off you go! The same with set up- if instructions followed, you are able to have your tent up in minutes. I’ve debated on whether or not to buy another one that’s how much I enjoyed this purchase! I can typically fit two chairs and a medium sized cooler inside. It has great coverage with the sun I can sit in it for hours and not overheat. Definitely recommend!

   I am so glad I got this tent and did not listen to the other reviews! So many people only write a review if a product is bad so you have to take those reviews with a grain of salt! It was so easy to put up and take down and comes with an awesome carrying case I was able to fit two chairs in there and sit comfortably with my family of 3 that includes two adults and one 3 yr old my son sat on the ground between our chairs or on our laps. Without the chairs there is a lot more room. You could probably for 4 people. The twnt comes with stakes and sand bags to keep it from blowing away but we use some heavy ice chests as we were on a rocky area at the lake. The tent provides a lot of shade and there are storage pocket a at the back for phone, sunscreen, etc and screened in windows all around that you can open/close to your desire. To put it up I would say it took a total of 1 min that is how easy it is!
