It cannot withstand more than 3 Beaufort at least the large size, no matter how you set it up, and under no circumstances does the beige color have SPF 50+. The sun is scorching you
The material it has for the blackout is damaged in strong wind and does not allow for easy installation and use of the product. While it does create real shade, I doubt its long-term durability.
The blackout material is like soft rubber, so it becomes inflated with air, unlike the tent without it.
The setup may seem simple, however, depending on the intensity and direction of the wind, it becomes difficult for the awning to stay upright. Perhaps in larger dimensions, two additional supports may be needed to prevent it from falling so easily. Regardless, it requires experimentation with the wind in order to set it up correctly from the beginning.
Large family with parents and 4 children, all with chairs, a small refrigerator, various bags, fits comfortably underneath. With full bags and good tension, it has no problem in the air. Easy to set up and pack up unless you do it alone, then it takes about 15 minutes.
It is perfect for a family of four, especially with young children. It is easy to set up and works great. It doesn't take up much space during transportation, and you don't have to carry poles, ropes, etc. The only problem is that you need space, but then again, a family of four with young children always needs space. Also, with the black fabric, nothing passes through from underneath. For a first bath, I can say it's worth the money. It was tested in 2-3 Beaufort winds. I will inform you if I see anything wrong.
16.07.23 Well, the second bath with 5 Beaufort winds held up okay. You just have to bury the poles in the sand because the tent becomes a sail and drags them. Also, the three poles must be facing the direction of the wind so that it holds. Of course, I had it at the highest level. I don't think it can withstand stronger winds because it becomes dangerous. However, some people who had regular umbrellas held them in their hands, and some who had Maui umbrellas also held them in their hands.
I bought the Blackout for 200 euros.
Now that I'm going on vacation and will have it every day, I will write more to you
As a negative, I consider the price of €130 to be too high for this specific product. Its material is stretchy, but I can say that a shadow was visible under the umbrella we were using, and it raised concerns for me as to whether it is now SPF +50, especially since the temperature increased significantly.
I bought this product due to my trust in the company's name and quality. I used it on sandy and pebbly beaches with excellent results. The setup and takedown of the shade are very easy. On a hot day (~34 degrees Celsius), the heat passes through the fabric and you can feel it. It withstood winds of intensity 5-6 on the Beaufort scale. The only "black" spot is that after 5 uses, a small hole appeared. I contacted the company, and if they truly want to maintain their solid reputation, they should replace it. I emphasize that the usage was as recommended.
At first, I was skeptical about the stability. However, once we got used to setting up the tent, we said goodbye to the umbrella. It is very lightweight, has a small carrying case, and can be easily transported even on a scooter. We bought it in July '22 and use it (family of 5) almost every day, and it hasn't had any issues. It can be set up with 4-5 stakes. You need to see which way the wind is blowing and set it up with the direction of the two poles perpendicular to the wind so that the wind can pass easily between the poles and under the tent. That way, it is quite stable. Don't be disappointed if it falls from the wind the first few times.
Very good and easy to install and transport. It is the best I have seen compared to similar ones. After one summer, I had to reinforce all the seams. Two of my bags opened and 2 carabiners were damaged by the sand, so I bought new ones.
Fantastic material. Creates a tremendous shade. The only negative is that it requires a lot of space to set up, which makes it unsuitable for crowded beaches.
too good to be true.. In the first week, the zipper of the carrying bag broke, then the fabric loops tore, and after 10-15 uses during the first summer, the next summer the canvas has faded, resulting in it not being able to stretch properly and collapsing with the slightest breeze.
Because I have another brand that is an older model and heavily used, this particular one has reinforcements in the right places and its sandbags are more durable. As for its usefulness, there is no discussion
Tent: The tent is of incredible technology and durability. It did not tear in windy conditions, and it is silent. The temperature underneath it is definitely 4-5 degrees Celsius lower, while the tent itself remains cool. In the large one, we comfortably fit 6 adults sitting and tightly lying down. The small one seems to fit 3-4 people respectively. 5/5
Pegs: The pegs are also of very good construction and resistant. Maybe a little attention is needed where they attach so that the spring does not come off, but it is not something to worry about. I think that for the larger tent I bought, maybe one more peg was needed as sometimes the tent curved in the middle. In the smaller one, the 2 pegs are more than enough. 4/5 for the large one, 5/5 for the small one.
Bags: Here is the point with the biggest problems. During a windy day, 4 out of the 5 points where the carabiners attach (green fabric strips) came off and we had to tie the ropes there instead of closing the bag. Also, in one bag where we had put sand and rocks and left it from half a meter, it tore at the seam. In general, the material and design are good, but their seams need a lot of reinforcement to withstand the wind. (If I were to buy them now, I would add 2-3 more rows of stitches in those areas for reinforcement) 3/5.
Ropes: They did not present any problem even on windy days. Maybe I will buy a slightly thicker rope to be sure. 5/5
Carabiners: The carabiners provided opened after the windy days I mentioned earlier. I think that by using larger ones, there will be no problem. 3/5
Overall, I highly recommend it, and its ease of setting up and taking down makes it ideal for everyday use. The shade it provides is amazing, and with the few upgrades I mentioned, I believe it will be perfect. For people who don't want to have such a large group underneath, I would recommend the smaller one (2x2) which seems to have better resistance to the wind.
P.S. Tip for the bags. We noticed that if you press down with their weight on the point where you attach the carabiner, the strength it receives from the tent improves a lot and it is less likely to tear.
