Great quality for the price,
I installed this shade sail over a courtyard that gets a lot of direct sun. In fact, prior to putting up the shade being in the courtyard anytime after mid morning was uncomfortable. That has changed with this shade.
I think this shade sail is a bargain. The material is thicker and stronger than I expected and the hardware provided is very good quality stainless steel. I expect this shade will last a long time.
I installed the shade myself. It was not difficult. I used some cargo pull straps to pull the canopy tight so it did not sag.

|Cool!,
We installed this on the western side of the house where the afternoon/evening sun was beating on the french doors to our dining room. We attached two corners to the house, and the other two to 4X4s put in the yard at the edge of the patio, and painted black to match the iron fence nearby. It looks very nice. We now have a very attractive awning on that patio, and the house is cooler in the afternoons. It is noticeably cooler under this than the rest of the yard.

|A Nice Shade, but will hold rainwater if not positioned correctly,
The fabric seems durable. It’s more plastic than fabric-like but that really doesn’t matter.. The material is great as a sun shade and looks good.
After an early snow our old 12×12 gazebo caved in and only the perimeter metal frame remained. We tied a Coolaroo to the corners and propped a pole in the center to make a peak. The pole runs into a table and is capped with a tennis ball to avoid damage.
But, during a heavy rain storm this spring.. each of the 4 sides filled with 10-20 gallons of water.. I had to run out and push the water out a few times before something collapsed. The fabric holds water which can get very heavy.
It’s not Coolaroo’s fault.. the instructions say to mount it with two high and two low corners, which is not what we did. If you’re worried about rain be sure to mount it per the instructions.
