3.0 out of 5 stars wind is a problem, March 18, 2007

We took this product to Florida on a recent winter vacation. It is easy to put up and take down, and easy to transport in its carry bag. And it seats two quite well, in order to keep the sun off when we were spending a lot of time on the beach. One significant problem is that it does not stand up well to more than about a ten mile per hour wind. Otherwise, it did fine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Adequate shade for long days at the beach, June 23, 2009

Pros:
1) Easy to setup even during windy condition. Directions for assembly attached to carrying bag.
2) Lightweight and compact when disassembled. Fits in luggage. Easy to carry with the shoulder strap.
3) Stays cool inside. (see cons below)
4) Sand pockets (on sides and back) really help stabilize tent and prevent it from being blown away when used with included stakes.
5) Easy to clean. Just shake the dirt off!
6) Fits 2 people comfortably when you want to lay down.

Cons:
1) No mallet to make pushing the stakes down into the sand.
2) Can provide more shade. This is because of the large vents although the same vents are one of the reasons why tent stays cool inside. Also, if the front panel is longer, it would provide more shade. You can drape a blanket over top of the tent to solve this issue but don't expect it to be as cool inside.

A bit tricky to put together since it doesn't come with instructions but once you 'get it' it is a fun shelter for outdoor activities.
