Easthills Outdoors Instant Shader Dark Shelter Deluxe XL Easy Up 4 Person Beach Tent Sun Shelter UPF 50+ with Extended Zippered Porch

Absolutely love this tent. Best purchase ever! It fitted our 3 pop up chairs inside, our photos were taken just as we were putting it all up. The tent is easy even for a woman, as you do not need much strength to pull up the strings on the top first before assembling all the legs in place. Once you have understood how to do it by the instructions given on the inside tag of the bag, I normally can have the tent set up in around 10 mins. Its brilliant on a windy beach, away inside from all the elements. Our photos were taken yesterday where it was quite windy, but we were so warm and sheltered inside our tent on the beach. So easy to put away too and get it back in the bag, which I was worried about! Spacious tent though, with a few storage flaps inside. Plus window covers that can just be rolled up or left down/toggled down if you prefer. It also comes with a hook at the top of the tent where you could possibly hang a small light. It comes with tent pegs, guide ropes, and even a fold-out-flap on the back in the outside of the tent so that you can fill it with pebbles/beach stones to further hold the tent down! We placed a few pebbles on the door flap that acts as a front floor covering, with beach stones too, just to keep it from blowing around more. Perfect family size, fits 3 + dog easily, great value for money.

We've used a number of different (cheaper) sun shelters over the years and none of them have lasted long or been that pleasant to use. This shelter transformed our holiday. Size, height, stability are great - you can comfortably use two chairs in it and still feel like you are on the beach and enjoying the view, rather than resorting to taking shelter. It stays a lovely temperature inside, helped I'm sure by the dark lining as well as the side vents. Can't speak for how long it lasts but it's well-made and quicker to put up and take down than other ones we've used. The biggest plus for our family is that my husband, who has a blood condition which reacts to sunlight, was able to spend multiple whole days on the beach with us without any adverse effect.

A great beach shelter that looks great and is a brilliant size.We’ve used the shelter in both hot weather and on cold, wet and windy beach trips.The shelter is quick and easy to put up and has been great for sheltering us and our dog from the heat and makes a great ‘changing room’ for getting dressed.The mesh windows are not water proof (the flaps are on the inside of the windows🤔), and it is a bit of a squeeze getting it back into the bag. It is quite sizeable when packed down but not heavy.The design and build quality appear to be good but there are quite a lot of fiddly parts that could break which would make it unusable. I would have liked a more chunky zip closure as I can see it becoming seized by sand and salt water and the carry strap looks like it might pull away from the bag over time if not treated carefully.Overall a nice, well proportioned shelter that has served its purpose well so far. We haven’t used any similar shelters to compare.

We bought this tent for use on the beach and are currently using it daily while on holiday in Cornwall. Very easy to use, great size for the three of us to get inside when the showers come - although waterproof, rain obviously does come in through the mesh windows but we just make sure there's nothing close to them when it does rain. Nice size for changing into/out of swimwear. Even had someone tell us they had 'tent envy' on the beach. We spend a lot of time at the beach and this tent is by far the best we have ever bought. Would recommend.

Based on using twice.Spacious Shelter that fitted 2 adults 2 kids and a dog tucked into the corner!Protected us from the British drizzle perfectly and withstood quite a strong breeze.Unfortunately we bought it after the heatwave but the black out lining would have been brilliant on a sunny day. It also allows the breeze to flow through.Easy to put up. Read the instructions first!Getting back in the bag. Read the instructions and push down on the red poles. When it’s breezy it’s not easy to pack away neatly but it will with some wrestling fit into the bag provided just not like it arrived.

I’ve used it a few time this week on the beach and it’s been brilliant. One of the days was a windy day and it was rock steady and I never once thought it was going to fly off down the beach. The compartments on the outside of the tent on the back and sides to weigh the tent down with sand are brilliant. They’re very easy to empty with the Velcro sides. It goes up and down so easy as the poles are built into the tent and I did feel smug watching others struggle with their poles that they were trying to feed in or those impossible to fold up up ‘pop up’ tent shelters. Even though it’s more expensive than one you have loose poles with or those pop up tents I’d definitely recommend this and my sister in law was so impressed by how it looked and how sturdy it was that she said she’ll be getting one for her family.

This tent is very sturdy and enormously huge, I like the new design that blackout the sun really well compare to ordinary beach tent, ofc UPF50 protection as well. The pegs works well but can be improved.Tent is easy to setup but it’s tricky to get it back into carry bag, you have to make sure the top of tent get in first.Regarding the label said about harmful chemical, unfortunately Easthills is a business from USA, the laws of US state California required such information printed on label, is this something to do in the UK? I don’t really think so, also I think the only harmful material probably the silver coat that protect from UV, so every beach tent has it, I believe that non-stick pan can cause cancer higher than this tent, but I have never seen any warning label.I have contacted Easthills and found out that the tent came with 12months warranty against defects in material and worksmanship from the date of purchase.
