COMMOUDS Beach Tent Canopy with 4 Aluminum Poles, UPF50+ Pop Up Beach Sun Shade, Portable Beach Sun Shelter, Easy Set Up for Camping, Fishing, Backyard and Outdoor

Yay for this shade!! I bought this one since the trendy brands came with fewer poles and I wanted a bigger shade size as well. I’ve set it up 3-4 times (on my own) this weekend and it’s been great. My kids love filling the sand anchors and emptying them for break down. I was able set up on a low tide sand bar and QUICKLY break down and leave when our oasis was disappearing. Easy set up on my own, great shade coverage, easy carrying bag and definitely a staple for summer. I thought the wrapping bungee cords were silly but they really help and do a great job.

Really like the durability of the fabric —-the sand scoop broke rather quickly but that’s an easy fix.

This was a challenge to set up in the wind. Definitely need extra hands. It worked best to dig holes, fill the sand bag corners, and bury them in sand. Then use the tie cords to stabilize. Once we finished wrestling it the first day, we enjoyed the shade. The rest of our vacation had very little wind, which made set up a ton easier!

Great idea but did not set up like picture. No instructions so had to go online to see how to do it and it still didn’t work. Kept falling over. Drooped down in middle, if pulled out to level out height it would topple over. Tried three different beach trips all were unsuccessful. Bought early so window to return had passed by the time I used it. Very disappointed. Waste of money.

We traveled to Destin with this! We have the 10 ft by 10ft and it fit in our suitcase just fine! Set up was easy took 5 minutes if you have some extra hands to fill up the sand bags. The shovel it came with worked great and made it really quick to fill up. Fill up the sand bags as much as possible and then pull the fabric right and it works great!!!! We had purse set up great but I noticed others with the same product dropping a little because there sand bags weren’t full and they probably didn’t stretch it tight. Great product we plan to continue to take it on our beach vacations!!

The first time I used this was on a still day on the beach. It had a tear in the seam of one of the sand bags upon opening it, but we needed it so we used it figuring it could be fixed later. I then took it on vacation where it was extremely windy!! Loved having it and it held up wonderful in the strong winds, however the other sand bags have also ripped at the seams. Thinking maybe the seams should be reinforced better. Waiting to see how much use I get out of it before the bags are totally torn. At this point I’m not pleased with the amount I paid with it already ripping. Big plus!! Set up is so easy!

Easy to put up & take down

I bought this May 2022 and at first we had trouble figuring out the best way to put it up, but after that it's a breeze. We used to cart down to the beach a heavy canopy...no more! The Commouds is so light, and it looks beautiful fluttering in the wind. The canopy hasn't torn or stretched out in the two summers we've used it, and in Florida it is hot. It's gone through a couple thunder storms and all it did was lay flat. Nothing was bent or twisted. We just put it right back up after the storm was over. However, you need to still wear sunscreen. I'm not sure what the SPF is, but you can still get burned especially if you're out all day. I highly recommend this product.
