Forceatt 12x14FT Waterproof Camping Tarp with 2 Poles, Sun Shelter for Car, Tent, Hammock in Camping, Hiking, Backpacking, Garden and Traveling

I have used this on several camping trips in very harsh conditions. Very well designed with a nice carrying case and durable poles and stakes. It held up without an issue against buffeting winds and rains in several storms. Nice product.

No problems with rain in my experience

We bought this for our summer camping trip. It worked well to keep out light rain but doesn’t handle much more. It’s also useless in the wind. It’s difficult to set up There’s a learning curve to setting this up and doesn’t include instructions. I would recommend buying this if you aren’t going where the weather will be rough and if you get separate sturdier poles.

These are my results from a recent camping trip in the Paciffic Northwest with 14mph winds in a rain storm. Read below for details. It's a great setup for the price.1-The poles are no where near as bad as people are saying. Plenty stiff, the spring and cable system inside them is a bit weird, not sure why they didn't use a simple bungee like most poles. I had the line pulled very tight and the poles did not flex more than they should have.2- The stakes are totally useless, like all free stakes with tents and such. You NEED to buy a set of proper 8-12 inch stakes that you hammer in for this and any tent as well honestly.3-Rain was no problem, no leaks or soaking from a PNW rainstorm for 5 hours.4-WIND. Okay listen, any set up like this is going to top out at maybe 7mph winds in it standard set up mode. This type of setup will fail if you do not drop the pole out of the side facing the wind and run that side lower to the ground. I got through 14mph winds doing this with no problem.5-REPACKING. Do not try to fold it back up, just stuff it into the bag and zip it shut, leaving the poles in their included bag outside of the main bag. This is true with most any tent/Tarp. In fact folding them causing more damage in the long becuaee of friction off the fold points.

Received package. Opened box and looked like it’s been used. So I went to open the support poles bag and they looked like this…. Definitely been used. Not happy receiving used products. Will be reaching out for a return and exchange.

Pros: light and compact compared to other picnic shades, also using it as a cover on my 10’ round Intex Prism pool, decent quality.Cons: none so far

Purchased right before a camping trip last week. Started to rain when setting up camp. We were able to set this up first and then set camp up underneath out of the rain. Perfect. Large enough to cover the back of the truck bed, 4 person tent snd 2 person bling underneath.

Being under this cover feels almost like being in direct sunlight. It doesn't feel like it Shades much at all. I should have returned it within the window.
