I can't live in my backyard without this thing!!!, June 5, 2009
This review is from: Patio Umbrella Mosquito Net by Simple DIY Solutions TM
When I read the comment about someone unable to see through the net, I thought, GREAT! So I know the bugs can't get in and my neighbors can't see me, so I bought one anyway and I can actually see out of it just fine. Besides, we are inside of it and not even the tiniest of bugs can get in and that's the whole point. Also, I don't us water or sand because I don't like the mess on my deck. My husband and I use a couple of penny rolls for weight. Like anything, it was chore trying to put it up the first time, but I learned to put it back up by myself by just draping it around the umbrella edges one section at a time. At first I was turning my umbrella, that was dumb, it's best to walk around it. Now, I can't live without this thing. I bought one for my mother who is always complaining about mosquitoes and everything else, and she loves it too.

patio umbrella net, May 13, 2009
This review is from: Patio Umbrella Mosquito Net by Simple DIY Solutions TM
Easy to set up, the one that was sent was black instead of white but it was fine. I started to fill the tube with water but it leaked right away. I am able to use it without the water and the net works very well at keeping the bees out. I am still glad that I purchased this because it allows me to sit out and enjoy the outdoors free of flying insects.

Mosquito netting, May 31, 2009
This review is from: Patio Umbrella Mosquito Net by Simple DIY Solutions TM
The only feature I like about this is that the base can be filled with water. It was very easy to fill. On the other hand, the netting does not sit at the top of the umbrell but rests almost to the edge of the umbrella when fully opened. If you have to close the umbrella the netting falls to the ground. It is nearly impossible to reopen the umbrella with the netting because the base is still filled with water. So, you have to empty the base and start all over. Also, it is very hard to see through either because the holes are too large or because it is white. I have another netting that is black with a tighter thread count per inch and it very easy to see through. It was worth paying a little extra money for it.
