Product Description
Phoenix Shade Sails are a great addition to your home, office, or wherever you could use a shade zone. Phoenix Shade Sails provide UV protection from the sun, a cool place for children to play, or an outdoor shaded area for entertaining guests. Set up in a permanent installation or use for portable shade.
Each of our shade sails comes in two varieties: Home and Professional. The home sails have a lighter weight material and use galvanized 6mm hardware. These sails are lighter and easier to install and are available at a more economical price point. The professional sails use a heavier material and 8mm Stainless Steel hardware. If your area of intended use is subject to strong winds or significant precipitation, you may want to consider the professional option.
All Phoenix Sun Sails come as complete kits including all necessary mounting hardware. The 18.5' square sail kit includes the 18.5' per side square sail, 2 turnbuckles, 2 carabiners, 4 pad eyes, 4 9' lengths of rope, and 16 wood screws. The sail has 4 triangle rings, one sewn into each corner, which resist twisting or movement compared to D-rings. All mounting hardware and triangle rings are made from 8mm stainless steel.
The sail itself is constructed from a heavy duty 320g/m2 polyethylene weave material which resists mold and mildew and is easy to clean with simple soap and water. Unlike cloth or canvas materials, the polyethylene weave does not absorb water or humidity. This water resistance, together with built in UV protection, ensures Phoenix sun sails stand up to years of outdoor exposure.

This review is from: Phoenix Oversized 18.5' Square Sun Shade Sail Complete Professional Kit Desert Sand Color
I installed this on the west side of my home, straight to the house on two corners and to (2) 4x6 posts that I buried 4' in the ground.
The only complaint I have is the seam. I like symmetry, and I expected if there was going to be a seam, that it would be straight down the middle of the shade. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The seam is offset several feet from the center and I just don't like the way it looks from underneath. This isn't a deal breaker, so I installed it and will just live with the consequences. The nylon ropes they provide to install the shade are kind of a joke. I realized quickly that I needed something a little stronger, and opted for some chain I picked up at the hardware store. All the rest of the hardware is quite good. I made a mistake in installation that was my fault, but I kinda wish the instruction manual warned against it. I installed the two posts too close together, so the distance between the wall and post is longer than between the two posts themselves. When adding tension to the shade, the sides pull tight, but the front between the two poles is left just a little saggy. It's not terrible, but if I had it to do over again, I would correct it. Overall, it's what I was looking for and I'm happy with the quality of the shade.

3/30/11 Shade is exactly what we wanted\needed for our camping. Heavy duty material with very nice stainless steel loops, snaps, and rope for hanging.

This review is from: Phoenix Oversized 18.5' Square Sun Shade Sail Complete Professional Kit Desert Sand Color
Though heavy and a bit saggy, it is worth the money- no question. It paid off to spend extra time/expense to install the poles we used, but I wish I had put in an extra line of heavy duty wire or rope (something) to hold up the middle. It sags down a lot, even with outside corners tightened a lot. But, I love the difference our Shade Sail has made in our back yard/patio area. I also appreciate that it blends in perfectly with our southwest surroundings and home color!
