Neso Tents Beach Tent with Sand Anchor, Portable Canopy SunShade - 2.1m x 2.1m - Patented Reinforced Corners (Aqua Fronds)

We like the wild beach kind of holiday, and always found the need for self-made shade to hide under during the peak harmful sun hours. After years of trying different pop-up tents and umbrellas, we finally decided to splurge on this rather expensive item, and we're so happy we did.It's super compact, easy to setup and pack up again, has minimum parts to assemble, and very cleverly designed. You really do have to stretch it while it's flat to make it work the best!The material is pleasant to touch, and super easy to fold back into the carry bag. The poles are stable enough to stay upright even in mild wind, although we had some troubles with the side wind, but nothing a few more stones in the bags and digging the poles deeper into the ground couldn't solve. The pole positioning can really affect the stability and the amount of both the shade that it creates and the space under it.We really did like the airiness of the shade this tent provides - you still get all the breeze, with all the protection. The material also blocks out the UV, and it's a massive added bonus.We also used it to extend the cover on the boat, and didn't put it down for the ride back, and this tent held up - so bonus points for durability!Overall, it's a fantastic piece of holiday equipment, and is an absolute must have on wild beaches. It's not cheap, but it's worth every penny.

I read a lot of reviews before I bought this tent, some negative comments about not be able to use the tent on windy day. We used it first time today. The weather was sunny and a little windy, there is no issue with the tent if you set it up on the right direction , a bit shaky when wind blowes but normal tent also shaky ,the tent did not collapse so I see no issue with windy days (of course not strong wind).set up is easy and design is cool, I can spot my tents on a busy beach . Overall ,very good and I'm going to buy a pair of neso chairs to use together with the tent!

This tent is the most amazing thing I've ever bought, no lie. It's light and easy to assemble. I can carry it no issues and you can have it up even when it's windy. Literally wouldn't be without this

Purchased this to take on holiday abroad as was fed up with buying a beach umbrella to throw it away at the end of the holiday or renting one.This product does exactly what it says and in my opinion is high quality.ProsQualityGreat pack away bag - big enough to get it back in easily and sturdyEasy to set up - look up the video as it;s great but not on Amazon UKLightweight to take in plane luggageConsExpensive for what it isIf the wind is blowing in the wrong direction and the shade is set up properly (wind into the big opening) then if the sun is also in that position you get little shadeTakes up a lot of beach space (5m x 5m)TipsFill the bags to the max with sand and dig a little hole to put them in. We had reasonable wind and it didn't move at allMake sure you stretch the tarp out before putting the poles in

This beach tent is excellent. I am considering buying a second slightly larger one for when the family visits.However, for two adults and maybe some small children this is perfect for the beach.Light to carry and easy to set up, providing excellent shade form the sun and to a degree - wind.At first use on a breezy North Cornwall beach my wife watched me set up expecting it to blow away like a lost kite. It didn’t of course, and the stylish tent attracted many questions from seasoned Cornish beach sitters.The sloped tent acts like an aircraft wing in wind. The sloped rear presses down to provide some shelter from the rear, and opens up with a breeze from the front allowing it to pass trough.Over a 5 hour beach day I only adjusted the poles twice to match the change in wind direction.

Don’t waste your money on this, altho it’s seems of quite good quality its useless in any thing more than a slight breeze and I mean slight, constantly having to adjust the supporting poles to stop it collapsing, gave up in the end.

This is a tricky review to write as the fabrics appear to be of variable quality…In terms of shade and protection it’s 5 star.⭐However, after two holidays ( two weeks each holiday) the fabric on the corners of ours where the ball sits, had worn very thin to the point of being see through as the elastane degraded in the sunny climate, this happened after a total of 10-14 day’s use over the second holiday, this stopped the fabric recovering its shape so it’s now stretched and baggy in those areas . We had rotated the shelter to spread the wear.Having spoken to other Neso owner’s whilst on holiday some had signs of degradation and some didn’t, most had owned their shelter for a longer time than we had.After contacting Neso to ask if they could supply some fabric to patch the damaged parts they were not able to do so but offered a discount off a new shelter as by this point it was over 12 months since we had purchased it.So, quite honestly I cannot say it’s good value for money in our case and I was reluctant to purchase another from them even at a discounted price. The problem for us in the UK is that they don’t have a presence here so we have to pay shipping from the USA.Quite honestly from our experience I cannot recommend this item in terms of durability.
