Super hard set up but nice

This tent was sturdy for the beach when you use the built in sand bags. It doesn’t have good air flow with the tiny windows. Set up was easy but getting the poles in the correct spots took a bit of strength. It’s also not huge which may be a good or bad thing. I like it and will keep it but I’m not sure it’s for everyone.

We were so hot in this tent, windows are not big enough for good air flow.

I really wanted to give this 5 stars but I knew when I saw the stakes they would not hold in this Miami Beach weather with the wind. And it didn’t! Lost half of the stakes in the sand. They should at least be a lot longer. It’s not like these tents are going in grass. Overall it’s nice but the stakes are too short and it took us about 20/25 minutes to set it up. I’m going to keep it but going to have to purchase stakes elsewhere. I also wish the 2 window panels had something to keep the panel down. The wind kept pushing the panel to close.

Good: easy set up, takes only minutes. Annoying:Flap doesnt zip all the way. not gonna keep stuff dry in pop up storm Bad: Main pole cracked after a few uses. not bad, not great.

Shelter worked fine, but when we got to our destination and opened it up it was clearly already used and then returned. Very disappointing that Target would put something in such condition back on the shelves without a deep discount. No directions included, which based on the Q&A appears to be a regular issue, and we have no idea if we have all the parts, but it was enough parts to use it.

Super tedious to put up if you are solo with a baby. Did not have vents for wind gusts, so tent jerked and seemed like it might fly away if I wasn’t holding on to it. It did shade us from the sun but since there were no vents it was a sweat box. Ultimately returned it.

It is difficult to take down and doesn't provide as much shade as I was hoping for.

It is not water resistant. The connecting part (now sure how you call it) kept dripping the water.

It’s horrible in the wind. I was trying to set it up alone for my 8 month old to be out of the sun on a beach day with my kids. The wind kept catching it and pulling the stakes out. Longer or corkscrew stakes, or better yet sand bag corners? Vents in the back so the wind doesn’t catch it like a sail?
