OileusX-Large 4 Person Beach Tent Sun Shelter - Portable Sun Shade Instant Tent for Beach with Carrying Bag, Stakes, 6 Sand Pockets, Anti UV for Fishing Hiking Camping, Waterproof Windproof, Orange

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Perfect. Easy to set up and take down. Felt like I boss watching everyone spend 20+ minutes getting set up. This pops up in a minute and just takes a few minutes to put away. Carry bag is great. Two humans and two small pups fit perfectly.

First of all - well made and sturdy IF you open it correctly. Dont rush to pop it open. If the legs are not opening into place it’s because the fabric is way. Just slide it up or down so the leg and unfold and open. Some reviews say it’s not sturdy in the wind or it “broke” when they tried to open it. In my experience it because they were “man handling” it. Take your time.That being said my experience is that it’s well made. It has these bean bag shaped pockets around the bottom perimeter. That’s for you to fill it up with sand to make it secure and prevent it from blowing away. I believe there is 5 or 6 of these on top of the metal stakes. When putting in the stakes in the sand- I put 2 at each point and angle them opposite each other creating an “x”. So between the sand bags and the metal stakes it was VERY sturdy in the wind. We loved the roll up windows and the inside pockets.Money well spent! I’d definitely buy another one. So much easier than the 4 pole gazebo we use to bring . This is so light and easy up and down. Seriously 5 -7 min set up and that’s filling up the sand bags, putting in the stakes and setting up our stuff for the beach day. The fabric does feel a bit thin but I have had no issues and we have already used it 3 separate days at the beach. we had windy hot days and just plain hot days at the ocean. It was easy to carry like 3-4lbs and it has its own carrying case.I was not sure when I was purchasing but I’m glad I did! I looked at several other options and they had complicated pole assembly. This literally is a pull string and it “pops “ open. So if you want an easy tent for the beach- this is for you.

I think this item has great potential. We managed to get it put up but it was already a piece that was broken. It was big enough to sit two people and my daughter comfortably underneath. Worth the money if it wasn’t already damaged. It was very light weight and the material was great and waterproof. I loved the little windows on the side that you can put up and down for privacy. The set up was easy. I would recommend for sure. Mine just came broken lol I’m going to return but not for my money back but to get another one .

Easy to setup and take downDurableExcellent sun protection

Just got this today. I set it up in the backyard. I found the instructions on the inside of the carry bag AFTER I had it up. Very intuitive and quick setup. It's roomy inside, I'd say 3 adults, or two adults and a couple kids. The fabric is on par with most tents and the poles are sturdy. There are two inside mesh pockets and a hanging hook in the center. The two side windows are mesh with flaps that secure inside. This isn't a good shelter for rain heavier than a drizzle. The extra flooring in front folds up to create privacy. The tent stake loops on the front flooring double as loops to go over the top front poles for added security. There are also 2" strips of hook & loop along the seams in the front. They don't feel strong, so I'm happy to be able to put the loops over the poles. Putting it away was a bit harder than setting up. The fabric is light weight and doesn't like being rolled back into the storage state. I managed both setup and teardown alone. Setup 3 minutes, teardown 7 minutes. I must say, this thing is LIGHT! I've carried camp chairs that are heavier than this.I'm taking it to the beach next month and will update how it handles wind and sand.**UPDATE**I've had this to the beach on two trips, to a large community picnic, and three camping trips. It has held up remarkably well considering it has been a play area for toddlers, a dog shelter, a changing room, a nice place to nap, a generator shelter, and a wood shed. I keep this in the back of my truck, and it has also been a nice bit of shade when hanging out with friends. Love this super convenient tent.

Very easy to set up, very easy to put away. Does not take up alot of space. You can very easily fit two people inside. Anything over that can be a little too tight.

Worked out great for our family beach vacation with our kids and grandkids. Easy to transport, lightweight. Easy to set up and break down once get the hang of it. Video tutorials were helpful. I would recommend

My son does track & field and has a meet in another city this Saturday. Meets run all day long, so shade for my athlete is absolutely a necessity. Product arrived and didn’t think anything would be wrong with it since it’s BRAND NEW - but on a whim decided to open it up and set it up before traveling out of town for the meet less than 48 hours - GOOD THING I DID!! Because 2 of the legs at the top of the “easy up” mechanism are BROKEN!!! Looking at arrival times to get a replacement tent will be impossible now that it’s Thursday and his meet is Saturday. So frustrating when I’ve paid so much for something that was either used and broken by someone else or just a piece of crap right out of the manufacturer. Doubt submitting this review will help anything except maybe to warn others not to trust that these tents are brand new and not already broken. Beyond disappointing and infuriating.
