Kookaburra 3m x 2m Rectangle Water Resistant Garden Patio Sun Shade Sail Canopy 96.5% UV Block with Free Rope (Polar White)

I'd been on the hunt for a smallish event shelter, as I'm limited on space, but couldn't find one to fit. Then I discovered these sun shades....yay!I'd ordered a triangular one off the Primrose website, but I'd opted for one a bit small for my needs. That is now strung across the roof of my conservatory (with 2 more triangles), to offer a bit of shade.So time to buy a larger size, and this was it. Substantial seams and loops, and a vibrant orange colour.The actual dimensions are short of the specified size, as per the picture. You've also got to factor in up to about 25cm from each loop, for attaching and tightening it to your fence / pole.

The product provides good shade however it is not as water resistant as I hoped. The fabric is of good quality however mine had some loose threads around some of the seems.

Great for shade from the sun but not suitable for rain shelter as it pools the water and sags so you have to take it down every time it rains. The tighter you pull it to try and prevent rain sagging the more the stitches start to split at the seams.

Nice product, more waterproof than I expected! So held a lot of water in heavy rain, but that was because I should have hung it with a slight slope. All sorted and looks good. You definitely need to get a size much smaller than your intended area as this needs to be well stretched to get it nice and flat.

We've had the sunshade up for a week now and it has been wonderful. So far showerproof and looks very stylish. I've never eaten outside so much. My only fault would be not coming with the attachments as these took longer to arrive from a different supplier so we couldn't use it straight away.

Brought one last year but this one seems to be a thinner material and not quite as sturdy. Still does the job of providing sun protection over paddling pool. Is easy to install and a good shape.

Exactly what we expected

Lovely sail for under our pergola. More creamer colour than we thought but will probably fade in the sun.
