Review on Skyshade Sun-Shelters by Coleman by Daniel Morris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice and spacious inside

My family loves the beach but I'm very pale and can't stay in the sun for long. Umbrellas are a nuisance because they often have to be adjusted to block the sun and tip over when it's windy. I've wanted one of these beach tents for a long time. This is a nice size (cat for scale in the picture!) and offers plenty of shade as well as extra privacy which is a plus for baby when feeding, changing and sleeping. The three of us made ourselves comfortable in it. I could be curled up in it. It's also great for lunch or snacking as it has a bottom layer so not a lot of sand gets into food and drinks. It's made of very light nylon so it doesn't get too hot. It has a compact size so it is easy to carry and doesn't take up much space in the car. My husband assembled it and he was a bit disappointed the first time because he refuses to read the instructions lol. He said it wasn't very easy because it was difficult to stretch the material to get the poles into some of the loops, but he said that now that he's done it once and knows what to expect , can make it easier next time. Time. It took him about ten minutes, but he did it with an injured hand. He estimates it will only take about five minutes to set it up properly. Losing weight is quick and easy. All frame supports are attached to each other and fold together. It comes with stakes and sandbag bags. I can't wait for our next trip to the beach where I can lounge comfortably in the sun and enjoy the view!
