SUN NINJA Pop Up Beach Tent: Instant Sun Protection and Shelter for the Beach

Richard: This is a Great Sunshade, lightweight, easy to set up, stays up in the wind; it's the whole package. Be aware however, that it takes a lot or real estate to set up so it's not the best solution for crowded beaches. If you have the room there is nothing better. A coupe of lessons I learned from watching online reviews: stretch it quite tight before inserting two or four poles. And, the higher the wind the more sand is needed in the four sandbags, and if it's really blowing you might have to bury the sandbags to keep things from moving. Got the large one and it makes a LOT of shade, great for the family.

Jason Hu: Very simple and easy setup. Flexible system to adjust for any sun or wind conditions. Casts a way bigger shaded area than one or two beach umbrellas alone. After we put ours up, some other beach-goers came by to admire our setup. Good investment. Really no need to use beach umbrellas after this.

Ernesto D.C.: Comoda, pratica,leggera ! In ampi spazi ideali come sostituzione dell’ombrellone ! La tenda è di buona fattura e di discreta qualità. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo facile da montare si si hanno ampi spazi, altrimenti la sconsiglio!

L2 - Pennsylvania: We used this product every day for a week at the Jersey Shore - and we had some super windy days, too! Provided perfect shade for our family of grandparents, parents, grandkids. This stood up extremely well and did not give us any worries. Gone are the days where we had to worry about an umbrella taking flight and possibly impaling someone! We did take the extra step (suggested by one reviewer) of digging holes in the sand first, then plopping our fully filled "sand bags" into those holes and covering with sand. This alleviates the possibility of the excessive winds causing the canopy to drag the sandbags across the sand. Also, we were sure to stretch out the canopy fully before filling "sand bags" and lifting with poles. If this ever wears out, we would most assuredly purchase again!

Enny: Wir haben den Sonnenschutz für den Strand bestellt. Unser erster Versuch scheiterte beim Aufbau am starken Wind. Am nächsten Tag sahen wir zu wie andere Leute ebenfalls einen Sun Ninja aufstellten. Also nachgemacht und es war perfekt. Während alle Sonnenschirme zu waren oder nur noch am Boden liegend geöffnet sein konnten lagen wir unter unserem Sun Ninja. Am ersten Tag noch etwas skeptisch ob er halten würde hatten wir mit jedem Aufbau mehr Routine und brauchten zu zweit nur wenige Minuten.
Da wir ein Problem mit dem Tuch hatten haben wir den Sun Ninja kontaktiert und es wurde uns sehr schnell geholfen.
Wir können diesen Sonnenschutz absolut empfehlen - allerdings ist es absolut notwendig ihn richtig aufzubauen. Aber dann hält das Teil auch Wind von BFT 4 bis 5 aus

Nikos: Also ich verstehe einfach nicht wer dieses Teil negativ bewerten kann. Ich sage euch eins, am Strand in Griechenland diesen Sommer gab es einen Tag, da sind ALLE Sonnenschirme weggeflogen bzw. habe alle die Strandschirme wieder zugeklappt weil es zu windig war. Ich stand mit dem Strandzelt alleine da. Es ist sehr schnell aufgebaut und der Schatten ist gut. Es ist kein 100%iger Schatten, aber schattig genug. Ich kann leider nichts zu Langlebigkeit sagen, aber es macht einen qualitativ guten Eindruck.
P.S.: Manche beschwären sich auch wegen der kleinen Schaufel. Sehe ich nicht so und wie ich finde sehr kleinlich.

Amazon Customer: Easy assembly. Saw a few reviews about it being unstable in the wind. I can honestly say the wind wasn’t a problem. Another bonus was that the heat of the sun didn’t radiate through the canopy. Was very comfortable to sit under, and several people asked where they could buy one.

JPNYC: So we used this tent successfully on a two week trip in the Caribbean. It stayed up even in high wind days. I will say that this tent is not good for people who are lazy, drunk, or have limited mobility. It takes a long while to set up and lots of energy to set it up CORRECTLY. At least 15 minutes on a windy day. Perhaps a bit faster if you had 4 adults all working together to help. I set it up mainly by myself. (44yo woman) You have to fill all 4 sandbags and then also bury the poles well, all of which takes time and energy. Like others have said, stretch the tent out as far as possible. REALLY stretch it FAR. This tent uses tension to work. Fill the sandbags A LOT. The included shovel is sturdy and came in really handy. Then also bury the bags. This tent takes up a huge amount of space. We were on a semi-private island so there were no other people around but personally, I would feel like this tent's huge size is obnoxious if there had been other people on the beach. I got the XL and it had plenty of room for our family of 4. As for sun protection, for many people, it will be fine. My husband, of southern Italian decent, was fine. So were our kids, who take after him and tan...

Beatrice: Tenda usata per la spiaggia. Fino ad ora montata 3 volte e devo dire che il montaggio è semplice e anche per metterla maggiormente in tiro basta spostare i sacchi ed i pali fino a che non è stabile. Altezza giusta anche per me che sono 187 cm di altezza. Spazio abbondante. Ha retto tranquillamente raffiche di vento di 14 nodi circa. L'importante è riempire completamente i sacchi e tirarla per bene. Fate attenzione ai tappi di plastica alla base dei pali perché si staccano e rischiate di perderli (noi ne abbiamo già perso uno). La sacca è bella resistente. Fino ad ora tutto bene.

Carina: I love the way this tent goes up and down so easily and also looks so nice when up .
I have only used twice so I do not know how long it may last going forward but the fabric & stitching seem pretty strong . When filling the sand bags and stretching it height wise with the poles I would suggest not pulling it too taught as that may cause more stress and reduce the life of the thing but again novice here myself . I love the aqua color I purchased ... it is bright and cheerful . I have no pics handy to share , sorry but the color is true to marketing . It is not a tall tent . I am 5'6" and can stand underneath but not by much .
Here are the cons ... the shovel is a child's toy ... you will need a proper shovel , LOL .
The pegs for holding down the sand bags are also sub par ... light weight aluminum and bent with first use when I needed to hammer them into the hard packed sand we have by me . Soft sand prob wouldn't be an issue . All in all I love this tent but the accessories are a bit crappy . If one had the option to buy just the canopy and legs I would go for that and sub the rest from camping supplies . Oh and one more thing ... I live in Florida and have a decent...
