Review on Blue Leg Weights For Pop Up Canopies - 4 Pack Anavim Canopy Water Weights Bag by James Jones

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Doubled up for a DIY shade over my back door.

I have a 5x5 foot sun shade that I needed to shade my back door that gets western sun and I don't have any way to attach it to the house so.I bought four 10 foot PVC pipes and cut a foot of pipe off each one and attached elbow pieces (4 per side) with T's at the tops and bottoms of each pipe to connect them. I had a couple of pallets I'd scavenged and used one to make a platform to cover the bottom pipes, but with these weight bags, I added another amount of weight to hold the frame and the attached sun shade (attached with ball bungee cords) in place. Also had a spare outdoor mat that I threw over the pallet and for a little time and a very little money I have shaded my back door which also helps keep my a/c from cycling as often. These water weights will help keep the frame/shade in place when it is windy and so far it is working.
