Shelter worked fine, but when we got to our destination and opened it up it was clearly already used and then returned. Very disappointing that Target would put something in such condition back on the shelves without a deep discount. No directions included, which based on the Q&A appears to be a regular issue, and we have no idea if we have all the parts, but it was enough parts to use it.

This cannot be assembled by a single person, therefore not useful for a parent alone at the beach with kids.

If you are on a sandy beach 🏖️ 🏝️ ( 9 built-in sand bag weights) or a dirt backyard (stakes), this is an outstanding tent! Be gentle with the poles, which are average quality, and they will last a long time. The tent is super easy to set up with one long pole (white) and two shorter ones (black). Many of the negative reviews I read are from folks who don’t have experience setting up basic tents 🏕️ ⛺️, or didn’t take the time to look at the tent before attempting setup. Took me 4 mins to setup on a windy day in Hawaii. All the umbrellas were blowing around and people leaving the beach walking by commented that they need one of these next time. I was most impressed with how deep the built-in sand bags are. There are 3 on 3 sides. What’s even more awesome is the floor of the tent which can zip up to complete privacy for changing or to better secure your things while you’re playing in the water together but still paying attention nearby. No windows, so set this up sideways so you can see the water but still have shade.

The bottom of the tent gets very hot in the sun and the inside becomes a heat dome.

Super tedious to put up if you are solo with a baby. Did not have vents for wind gusts, so tent jerked and seemed like it might fly away if I wasn’t holding on to it. It did shade us from the sun but since there were no vents it was a sweat box. Ultimately returned it.

A beach shelter that cannot be assembled with moderate wind is pretty useless. We brought it to the beach only to find it was impossible to assemble. Stakes would not stay put no matter how deep into the sand they were. We felt we were a live blooper reel. Returning.

I did like yes it provided shade, but be careful what kind of chairs you use, unless you have the bars/rocker style chairs and you take this to beach be prepared for punctures all over this.

Not a tent - its a sauna.

Stevie - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
The design feels backward, the sun protection is made of light colored fabric which allows tons of light (HEAT) through and the “floor” fabric is a black tarp which also gets incredibly hot. It may protect you from sunlight, but it will overheat you in the process. This was purchased to protect an infant from sun and heat - it was fairly easy to put together, but otherwise unusable for its intended purpose.

Ok beach tent

Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
First time parent - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Overall it is spacious and was pretty easy to assemble. My biggest con is that it felt very warm sitting inside. The air vents aren’t very big so it blocks the wind which may be ok if you’re cold but bigger air vents would have been better to let some breeze inside.

Mermom - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Great for the beach. Easy to assemble but test it first at home and learn how to assemble it before taking it to the beach. It took two of us to set it up quickly. May be a challenge for one person on their own. But this can easily provide shelter for a family of four. We didn’t have a lot of wind and didn’t use the sand pockets or other ties, but it’s good to have those features for a windy day. Comes with a carrying bag and I think for for the price it can’t be beat if you need shelter from the sun for a day at the beach.

we took this to the beach for sun protection. It basically just blocks any wind. The tarp gets so hot that you can't stand on it. It was probably 20+ degrees hotter in the tent, so we couldn't even use it. Would NOT recommend.

It is not water resistant. The connecting part (now sure how you call it) kept dripping the water.
