Glymnis Pop Up Beach Tent UPF 50+ Sun Shelter for 2-3 Person Automatic Portable Beach Shade Tent Outdoor Cabana Sun Umbrella

It's been a year since I've bought this and I've now had to throw it away.I got to use it for 2 beach vacations (5 day trips)... and because it sat unused for a while during the winter, it made the framework very weak. After one day this year of using it and folding it and putting it away it became floppy and unusable.

I love this tent. I bought it for my daughters first cruise so she could enjoy the outdoors. She has to wear UV clothing year round to protect her from the sun and this tent (with UV protection material) allowed us to stay on the beach all day without complications from her medical condition. The price was great and I love that there is a net area where you can see all around you. Would recommend 100%

Bought this for a trip to the beach. It set up in no time, but when it came time to fold it up - what a nightmare! We're on the beach, trying to pack everything up, with a 2-year old in tow. We're hot and tired, the wind is blowing and this tent almost defied folding. We folded it somehow the first time, but must not have folded it as intended, because when we used it the next day, it took a bit for the wire supports to bend correctly. The second time, we ended up bringing it back to our condo unfolded (not easy to do) and wrestled with it there. The size is very spacious, but turned out not to be what I was hoping for.

It will not fit in check in suitcase. We bought this for a trip to miami but it won't fit in our check in bag so had to return it. Quality and product is good.

I really wanted to like this tent. I practiced setting it up and folding it both in my house and at a nearby park and it showed some promise. The park I tested it at was woodsy and there was almost no wind that day, so off to a great start. When I took it to the beach, it was a completely different story however. I saw in the reviews that this was lightweight (it is) and spacious (yep) and there are attached pockets for sand to add weight at the bottom and lines mid-way up on all four sides to keep it stable. The issue I ran into was that there there was a steady wind (weather app said 8-10mph) that day and immediately after taking it out of the case, I knew that this was not going to work. The support structure is very thin and light and it was caving in under the strain of the wind immediately. I tried attaching the stakes and lines, but the sand was clearly not going to hold it in place for long (and the attachment points were straining to the point where they were clearly going to fail even if the stakes held. The upper portion of the shelter just catches too much wind and the support is too lightweight for this to work on a breezy day. I will be returning this, but if you are looking for a shelter to use in a calm, protected location, it is light, quick to set up and with a little practice, fairly simple to store back in its carry case.

Easy to assemble and break down. Great for beach or parks.

Perfect for the beach, easy set up, storage and transport.Spacious for 2-3 chairs or beach blanket with cooler, small chairs and small table for drinks and books. I like the privacy factor on 3 sides. The blue is a nice color that creates a soft bright filter for the sun. I can't give feedback for wind tolerance.Good buy for the price.

Good tent, might have a rough time taking it down but overall pretty good

We havent used it on beach or garden yet, but we did open it up in the house. good size for two adults or a family with young children.I personally didnt enjoy folding it up, but once you get the hang of it, it doesnt take more than 2 mins pack up. There are instruction on a label connected to the tent.

We have used this many times and it's a great shade for 2 adults or 3 kids. If you have a family of 4, I would order 2. I had to look up on youtube how to take it down but once you do it one time it's so easy.

There is no need to attach any additional components, poles or covers to assemble! -------- Just Throw it, it will Pop Up! Camping has never been this easy. It comes in a circular carry bag with straps that can be used to carry the tent on your shoulder. It is a great gift for kids as play house. Open on both ends. Bottom is made of a durable tarp material for easy cleaning. Easy assembly....just unzip from carrying case, unlatch the strap and it pops up on it's own.

Pros: Lightweight and compact, no assembly required. It basically just pops us by itself with minimal effort.Cons: Folding it back to the way it was is a real pain in the butt. I’ve watched numerous YouTube how-to videos on it and have done it exactly as showed by forming the 2 overlapping rings and it just does not fold the way it’s supposed to, let alone trying to make it fit inside the carry bag. Maybe I got a defective one, I don’t know. But basically we’ve given up on it and will have to spend more dollars looking for one that actually works. Unfortunately the return window closed on me before we had a chance to use it for the first time.Also the lightweight feature is great for portability but I found the framework to be too flimsy to be a durable and sturdy beach tent especially when the wind’s blowing strong. You really have to peg it and weigh it down with rocks or sand inside the flaps or it will completely blow over and get flattened by a slightly stronger breeze even when it’s secure in place.Hopefully the merchant can see this review and send a replacement or offer a refund for me to send this back. I will update this review if I get any response from them.

We bought this for our month long mexico trip... and it has been one of the best purchases we have made. Amazing quality, super easy to fold... very large for 2 people and very lightweight.... highly recommend for shading in the hot sun!
