4.0 out of 5 stars 10 by 12 foot Super Heavy-Duty tarp
Nice tarp, better made and heavier than economy grade, but not "super heavy". I owned tarps with
higher weight/sqft. Well spaced eyelets

Typo in the product name. Tarp thickness appears to be 10 mill (a thickness between 2 to 3 sheets of office paper) not 10 mm (about 3/8")

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly Made Tarp
While the tarp arrived in a reasonable time for ground shipping, I was disappointed in the quality. It is not Super Heavy Duty as advertised. The grommets were irregular and asymetrical side to side and one was installed protruding over the edge.

A previous tarp ordered from the same company was better than what I received this time which is why I...

5.0 out of 5 stars Holding up great so far!, October 7, 2009

This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
I thought this would turn out to be more tarp than I needed. I have a 7x9 Coleman four-man tent, and this 10x12 tarp is exactly the right size to go under the whole tent plus give me a generous entrance/exit area. I always stake it down at all four corners, independently from the tent.

Memorial Day weekend 2009 I was at a bluegrass festival that was hit by a near-hurricane-level storm. Tents and tarps went flying all over the place, and most everyone lost their gear. Not me. This tarp stayed put, the tent on top of it was unharmed, and despite being battered by wind and debris, all it got was muddy. Cheaper tarps and groundcloths at nearby campsites were torn to shreds.

A previous tarp ordered from the same company was better than what I received this time which is why I reordered. Although I didn't return it, I used it "as is" anyway because of the necessity to cover my boat. I will not order this tarp again from this company because of their lack of quality control.

5.0 out of 5 stars Holds up in the winds. Strong stuff., October 10, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
We bought a couple of these to cover our woodpiles. No lie, we had them covered up fewer than 3 minutes when we got one of our nastier thunderstorms: winds over 60 miles an hour and 2 inches of rain in less than an hour. Because we had not perfected "tenting" the tarp it ended up holding up a large amount of pooled water; withstood the winds as well. We've had plenty of wind and rain since and had no problems. I'm sure they'll handle snow as well. These are sturdy and strong, no problems with the grommets. Highly recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars replacing after 10 months, January 15, 2010

This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this to cover an outdoor pingpong table from occasional rain, and am very disappointed. Th tarp has a huge rip and is now almost unusable. I am having to replace it after use less than one year. We live in Southern California so it only rained a few times.

1.0 out of 5 stars Garbage, September 16, 2010
This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this about two months ago, a larger version, and placed it on my boat four weeks ago. When I returned to the RV park I store my boat at the tarp had already ripped in a few places.
Of course my return limit was over so I am out of luck. The only reason I tried this one from Amazon was because the tarps I buy at Walmart usually only last about six-nine months out in the Florida sun. But 4 weeks?????? 30 dollars wasted. I guess it's back to Wallyworld for any more tarps!
Absolute garbage and I would strongly recommend staying away from this product.

2.0 out of 5 stars Make them better!, November 3, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
I thought that this might be a little bit better,because of the thickness. The first time I used it tied down tight on my trailer,it ripped as bad as some of the cheap ones I have bought. One trip and that was the last.
Why do they make these so thin? I would rather pay a little more and get one that last awhile.

3.0 out of 5 stars Find a different Tarp, June 21, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
I got this Tarp and was not impressed about the quality. In a lot of areas the silver edging came unglued from the brown area of the tarp, and had to be held with epoxy. the tent edges where not a perfect square- or right triagle, but rather very quickly came together in an uneven and imperfect angle. I found better quality tarps at Walmart. I am using this tarp for car camping, and placing it under my tent for protection, I haven't used the tarp yet, but I am sure it will serve it's purpose well, as long as it's purpose doesn't include "Heavy Duty."

4.0 out of 5 stars Fairly Durable, November 19, 2008

This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
Not intended for years and years of outdoor exposure. It works just fine for our needs. We replace it every couple of years. Price is right.
No complaints, really.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Tarp Does Nothing for the Bottom of the Tent, August 6, 2011

This review is from: Dry Top 210125 10-by-12-Foot Super Heavy-Duty 10-Mil UV Treated Tarp, Silver/Brown Reversible (Tools & Home Improvement)
Great Tarp if you are just covering up the something. For the bottom of a tent the product is not that good. It is rain proof though!
