I absolutely loved this item at first until I realized it wasn't as big as I thought. It doesn't completely cover the space I need it to cover. If only it were a few inches longer on each side, that aspect of it would have been perfect.
My next issue is... On one side, the fabric is not tight at all. It constantly flaps in the wind. It looks bad and will more than likely end up tearing it up sooner rather than later.
It is a little hard to get it lined up just right when you are trying to attach it to the pole AND, I did not notice at first that it was supposed to attach at the bottom of the pole was well as at the handle. It's also a little difficult to line it up right the first time when you're letting it wind back up. I usually have to pull it out and redo it at least once.
There could very well be a trick to all of these problems, but I haven't figured it out yet.
Overall, it will do for now I guess.
