Up in a flash and down just as quick, the Rapido cabana shelter from ABO Gear provides excellent protection from the sun and wind but still allows you to feel the sand between your toes.

The Rapido's floorless design allows your child to play in the sand.

The Rapido is equipped with a unique pop-up mechanism with no loose parts, so setting it up is as easy as opening an umbrella. The shelter also offers plenty of ventilation thanks to the open front, air vents, and shutters. And the floorless design is great for the kids, because they can build sand castles or dig holes without exposure to UV rays. The Rapido, which includes a staking system and outside sand pockets for stability, measures 6.5 by 3.5 by 3.5 feet (W x H x D) and comes with a compact carrying bag.

About ABO Gear
Short for Australian Beach Outdoor, ABO Gear opened in 1995 with a mission of making outdoor life more comfortable. In the ensuing years, the company has moved in a more pet-focused, sustainability-oriented direction. In 2004, ABO Gear entered the pet market, providing pets with the same rugged, high-performance, waterproof gear as their owners. In 2008, ABO launched a Natural Products Division focused on "green and pet gear." The division's Aussie Naturals brand features products made using jute, wool, cotton, coconut fiber, natural gum rubber, and leather. ABO Gear continued its movement with its Outback Jack line. Inspired by watching tons of scrap fabric being trucked to landfills, Outback Jack products are made of discarded fabric given a second life as dog toys, travel bowls, and more.

ABO Gear tests all its pet products on employee's dogs and maintains a partnership with Barking Hound Village Foundation (BHVF) in Atlanta. BHVF rescues dogs slated for euthanasia in local city and counter shelters and transports them to no-kill rescues across the East Coast. ABO Gear is currently based in downtown Decatur, Georgia, with a 50,000-square-foot warehouse and fulfillment center in Murphy, North Carolina.

I bought this because we had planned spending time on the beach over the holiday weekend and needed a place for my infant child to be protected from the sun. It was easy to get popped up and very sturdy. The sand pockets did help keep the tent weighted down. We did notice that heat would get trapped in the tent if you did not open the window vents. At the end of the day I just flipped it over to empty the sand pockets and pushed down on the braces to fold it back up. Over all I am very pleased with the tent.

I just received this cabana today. It came with no instructions, and when I tried to set it up, one of the pieces broke. The broken piece made it impossible to put back in the carton so that I could return it. Consequently, I put it in the trash where it belongs. Don't waste your money.
