2.0 out of 5 stars Great to have, but it broke, July 4, 2006

This review is from: Sun Stop'r Kwik Cabana II Instant Beach / Backyard Cabana w/ UV Protection (Baby Product)

I am a big fan of the pop-up cabana idea. I bought this one last year and it was great while we had it. It was also the only thing like it on the market (at the time), so I paid the hefty price. But it only lasted until the end of the summer and my daughter put a little too much weight on it while getting in (she was only 14 months old) and the top snapped. It was actually quite dangerous because the poll whipped back and was sharp. Luckily, it didn't hit her.

I called the company and they were not very helpful at all. The woman acted kind of shocked like "and what do you want US to do about it?" They would not replace it or send any parts to fix it.

But like I said, it was really great to have and I *almost* considered buying a new one for this summer. Then I saw the identical thing in KB Toys, for $19. I can't tell any difference between the two of them and it was way cheaper. We used it today and it was great.

Update: Tent from KB lasted only a couple of weeks and then it was useless as well. I bought one of those "pop-open" ones that are just two walls with a metal frame. With the slightest bit of wind it won't hold it's shape or just falls over. So, I still haven't found anything out there worth while which is so sad because it's such a great idea.

This tent is worth every penny! It assembles in 2 seconds by pulling 2 strings. The disassembly is just as easy. It is perfect size, has sun protection yet nice screens for a breeze and will completely enclose with a zipper for protection. It is very lightweight with a great carry strap. We packed it in a suit case, set it up on the lawn pool side, carried it on a hike to set up at a private beach and loved it in all scenarios!

We've had this tent for three years now, and it's been great. We used it at the beach, and it provided a nice shady place for the baby to nap, as well as a discreet area in which to nurse. It's so easy to carry, pitch and fold up. Some reviewers have said that it gets too hot inside, but we have found that as long as one of the mesh sides is facing the breeze, it's not a problem. I am planning to replace it soon, to use for our third child, as ours has rusted over the years.
