Summer Day Essential

This has become a summer day essential for our family. No more having to truck around bulky, awkward to store/carry beach umbrellas - this beach tent has it all!

The tent looks exactly like the picture when set up. Upon getting my beach tent, the first thing you notice is that it is small, compact, and lightweight. It is so handy to pack and carry around. The canvas feels to be durable and should last a fair amount of time. Set up is easy as it more or less just pops up into its proper shape. Only minor adjusting is needed. The pegs are handy to have to keep everything in place to prevent corners from folding up from beach play or keeps it from flying away on a breezy day. Set up it is not too big at all. It comfortable fits myself and my 1.5 year old toddler, but not much more. I love that it has a half mesh backing as it allows air to pass through so that it does not feel hot inside of the tent. The tent is UV protected, but I wouldn't count on that instead of sunblock (personal preference). The extended base to outside of the sheltered area is super handy as well.

Putting away is the tricky part. I would recommenced you practice this a couple of times before taking it out somewhere or it may cause frustration. They do include step by step directions and also sent me an email with a youtube link to watch which was very helpful. As soon as you figure it out though it is super quick and easy.

Overall a great addition to our beach bag.
