This will be coming with us to the beach and any sporting outings where we will be exposed to the weather. First off, this is an affordable solution for a sun shelter. It’s not jam packed with all the bells and whistles that some of the other sun shades have, but the price was right, and it’s more than serving it’s purpose. Trailspace’s community of gear reviewers has field-tested and rated the top tents and shelters.
I set up the tent by myself in a few minutes. There are all hooks, that you hook into the poles, so it is quick, but not the most secure. You could probably do it in the dark, if you had to.
There is only one shade, which can be put on either side of the sun shelter. You just angle the shelter where ozark trail straight leg canopy you need it, then attach the shade. It’s literally that easy and is very quick and efficient to set up.
The Ozark Tail sun shade comes with side curtains to cover the mesh on the side. I did not have these mounted in the photos posted with this article. The side curtains would function nicely for a windy beach setting. The product also comes with a tarp that can be put along the ground. This would be great for anyone that plans to sit down in the shelter. I need a break from the Pacific NW clouds and rain sometimes.
Sometimes it’s easier to watch someone set it up and talk about it, rather than read a review. Feel free to check out the video below, or you can scroll on down and read more about the sun shade. I am all about saving a few bucks with Walmart’s camping gear.
The box says 30 seconds, which will be true every subsequent time we now set it up. I understand that occasionally products have manufacturer defects. But after seeing this fail on both sides, I am concerned it would happen again if I returned ozark trail straight leg canopy the item for a replacement. Ships in the manufacturer’s original packaging, which may reveal the contents. This time around they have been designed with a 9.5mm thickness. Only the leg poles are aluminum, the frame itself is fiberglass….
With the push buttons you need to worry about pinching fingers or not being able to release the button when it gets rusted, which is never a pleasant experience. The legs extend to give the top peak a height of about 8’10” which will be plenty of headroom for anyone underneath. I actually made a great video that shows you how to set up the Ozark Trail instant sun shelter.
