AsterOutdoor Sun Shade Sail Triangle 16' x 16' x 22.64' UV Block Canopy for Patio Backyard Lawn Garden Outdoor Activities, Cream

Bought 2 8x12. Perfect for my back patio . The sun always blast it late morning to mid afternoon. It would get so hot by the sun you couldn’t walk barefoot on the patio. These keep the patio much cooler and much more enjoyable.We did read the reviews before buying so we bought some chain as suggested and used to anchor instead of the rope .

The sun always blasts our garden plants in the afternoons, causing them to dry out and die.We ordered this sun screen to shield them from the hot Arizona heat.We put stakes in the front which we attach the 2 fasteners with Bungie cords. The other 2 fasteners are put on "J" hooks which are on the house.Easy to put up and down ( 30 second max) and so far, so good!!

Love this sun shade! I have shoulder and arm problems and working our huge umbrella was difficult for me.. we literally just hooked this up using C shaped hooks! When its going to get windy or stormy, we just unhook it and fold it up until the storms pass. Our deck is small so this works for us! We've gotten so many compliments also! Our neighbors said it looks like a Cabana underneath!

Our house is west facing and so in the afternoons our living area is SO hot. And our back deck is unlivable so we've never been able to use the space. After putting this up our house has held temp every day and our back deck is so relaxing that we're putting loungers out there now! It was frustrating that it didn't come with hardware but I was able to get it up with about $10 in hardware and $6 in lumber. It blocks the sun but doesn't make it dark it's just filtered so it gives everything this really great glow. Our electricity bill last year this time was over $1k bc of the ac not being able to keep the house cool and we had to run a portable ac to keep the house livable. Not anymore!!

The sail is providing shade to a narrow area of my side yard which is otherwise brutal with the sun in south Texas . I should have ordered a wider size but this is performing quite well thus far.

It’s 82* today and you can feel the difference underneath. Just need a small fan and a drink 🥃 Looking to get a triangle one for the swing set

Does the job and pretty good

Exactly what I needed. It makes my patio much more usable in good weather. Nice color warms the area up.

We love the shade, the color, the texture, and it transformed the patio into a defined space now with some shade for all hours of the day. Great purchase I am thinking of getting another as a spare, Im not sure how long they will last.At first it was very frustrating to install, I had dug and cemented 5x5 posts in the ground and then had to mount eye screws on the brick wall of the house.the directions or lack thereof arent very specific, I do all my own home renos and figured this was easy peasy, it took a few times to get it right, some youtube videos helpedI installed cleats on the posts (see picture) like you would find on a dock but way smaller because undoing knots was a pain in the butt, so as the shade relaxed and the wrinkles came out over a few days the cleats allowed me to re-tension the shade just right, Ive been doing this everyday and now today it looks like i dont need to anymoreAs you can see in the pics the rope ( I had to go buy some) is looped around 3 times as per a dude on Youtube, this made tensioning it so much easier without rope burning your hands.The rope they give you may be adequate for some people, it didnt work in our situation, so i got 100 foot of polyester rope which stretches the least of most ropes, it worked great and was only 9 bucksI didnt order the hardware kit as I didnt think i would uise the turnbuckles or cheap plastic plugs. I went with lag eye screws with lead shields in the brick, Its solid and I can sleep not worrying it pulls out of the wall,So the 80 buck shade ended up costing me about 350 to 400 bucks including posts, hardware, cement, rope etc and a few hours digging 50" holes since we live in a frost area

We incorporated this shade sail in a pergola and it looks especially sweet because the sides have a bit of a curve to them and the corners are not at right angles. I like it a lot. We bought the terracotta and at first I was disappointment because in the package it looked very orange. Once we got it set up, it seemed to take on a bit more of a reddish colour and it looks great. Is definitely not rainproof when set up horizontal like this (we didn't buy it for rain protection, only for sun protection) but it offers a bit of a buffer to the rain. We will take it down for the winter. Haven't had it long enough to comment on durability but seems like good value for the money.

Love these shade/sails. I used to have one from IKEA and used it till it wore out, but it wasn't as good as this style. The key is the fabric - this product is a woven synthetic, that allows air to pass through it, while at the same time provides a good amount of shade. I purchased another style of shade from Amazon but it was made of thin nylon 'oxford cloth' and caught too much wind and even on a slightly breezy day it became a danger; it caught the wind and blew off flipping around, breaking the bungee cord that was holding it in place and if anyone was standing near could have gotten a good swat with the D ring.I already had one of these sails installed as well, I bought the other brand of oxford cloth to add a pop of colour, but returned it for another of this Aster Outdoor brand. I recommend this type of sail, they look good, are sturdy and they do the job. I now have two the same in place, they're attached to the house/posts with a very strong hook and heavy duty bungee cords. They hardly move, even in the windiest conditions, they look great too and give very good shade despite the looser weave.

I returned one I previously bought.What I like about this one1. colour matches the pressured treated wood2. is not fully water proof, therefore water leaks though it rather than accumulating on top3. although at first I thought it not opaque enough it does indeed block enough light. See #2 above4. more true to advertised size5. price is much better than any other Amazon sail

I only gave it 3 stars for water resistance bc it is not to be totally water resistant any shade that is water will pool and it will and sag in the middle (no matter the angle you have it at) so this one has a woven fabric which allows the water to drip through but only in the low parts of the, so if it is pouring rain outside it will feel like a light rain under the shade. But I do not overly love the colour (Red/orange) but I ordered it late in the season and they were sold out of any of their nice colours.
