Great product! Unique style! Not rainproof.
This is a great product! I will warn you that it does not provide shelter from the rain like a patio umbrella or fabric gazebo. In all fairness it is labeled for sun shade.
I have a large square centered on my deck, and a triangle next to it over my door. I ordered another triangle for the other side of the square to provide consistent shade over the deck. It was fairly easy to setup. The hardware was sufficient. My husband and 15 year old son hung it. It did take a couple trips up the ladder to keep tightening the tension and get it just right. Once completed, the tension and rope has stayed in place. We have had some big storms with high winds since hanging the shades, and everything is still in place. We will have to remove it in the fall because of snow in winter. The ropes will probably have to be replaced each year, because they are not as durable as the overall item. I would recommend this product to someone seeking a unique way to obtain shade.
Also, It is quite a commitment if you don't have four corners to hang it on. I installed two, large, 18' posts in the ground and made them decorative columns. I am truly happy with this item, and I hope it lasts for years to come!
