Beach Tent, Camping Sun Shelter 10 x 10ft, with 4 Sandbags, UPF50+, Includes Sand Shovel, Ground Pegs & Stability Poles, Pop Up Beach Canopy Sunshade for Fishing, Backyard Fun or Picnics (Cyan)

All depends on the wind
The functionality of this canopy is dependent on the wind since it only has two poles. It’s fairly easy to set up by filling the sand bags first with the hand shovels that are already included and then securing the canopy to the poles with the adjustable elastic straps that are included and positioning them where you need them. It’s great for the beach, especially if it’s a super windy day. It provides excellent coverage, and it won’t blow away like a standard canopy. The sand bags hold A LOT of sand, and there are stakes included as well. I recommend using wet sand if it’s an extra windy day. Those hand shovels are not flimsy little sand castle shovels though, so digging up the wet sand is easy. It provides excellent coverage. However, if it’s TOO windy, the front of the canopy will blow down and flap everywhere and block your view . The beach pics I uploaded were taken on an extremely windy day and was our first time to use it. I had to pull the front of the canopy and scrunch it together with a hair tie to keep it from flapping down in our faces. The last picture I uploaded was at the lake on a day with no wind at all. Since there are only two poles to hold up the front corners, it becomes more of a lean-to because there’s nothing to “lift” the canopy without the wind, and there’s not as much space or coverage.

Terrible design and fake advertising video
This is nothing like the video. The material is too heavy and the posts don’t stay in the sand, the sandbags don’t stay buried that are attached to the posts in the front. Also the black string ties don’t work, they kept popping off and the post would fall down. The video must be made with AI because it looks NOTHING like the final product when it’s put together.

Surprisingly Great
I’m a pale girl from Florida, so I’m always looking to up my outdoor sun protection. I specifically bought this canopy to take to the beach, but I decided to test it first in my backyard. If I can’t put it up by myself, I don’t want it. Also, nothing is worse than hauling something out onto the sand and then not having it work out.Everything comes in a carrying case, and it even contains two cute little scoops for sand. The canopy itself is a stretchy, jersey-ish material that will be perfect for repelling sand but tends to get little bits of dry grass stuck in it. It was pretty easy to set up, thought the support poles were a bit tricky to drive into the lawn. This, again, would be much easier at the beach. However, even without any sand to weigh down the anchor bags the stakes that are provided did a great job holding it all up.All in all, I think this was definitely worth it for the on-sale price I paid for it. It’s the perfect size for two people with beach chairs to have plenty of room in the shade. I’m curious to see how it holds up over time, but so far I’m happy!

Flimsy
I wanted to like this- I really thought this would be a perfect solution for me to go to beach alone and not require help. I found this easy to put up- instructions were clear. Getting it to stay up was another story. It whipped around in the slightest breeze and was so unstable and unsturdy I took it down about 30 minutes later because I was sure it would blow away.Maybe if there is absolutely no breeze at all this would maybe be okay- but realistically- just get a tent. With steaks for the ground.The sandbags would be good for secondary support only.
