Great product! This is a simple, no frills, beautiful tent! I bought this for my baby for our trip to Mexico, and I found it to be such a life saver. The sun was scorching hot, and bright, and even though we never went into the water, I got a little sunburned. My baby didn’t though, she stayed in the tent and played most of the time. We didn’t even fill it with water until later. We just had her toys out, and honestly it was just a relief to be out of the sun! And the best part was setting it up and taking it down. It’s a cinch. It was just me and my baby girl, so you can imagine I value simplicity in what I have to carry, and build, etc. etc. while also having to look after her. we had a great time, we were only in Mexico for 3 days, otherwise I’m sure we would’ve gone out and used the tent again. It’s awesome, I recommend it.

Very happy with this! I brought my two kids to the beach – 2 1/2 and 8 months and they’re both too young for the sea I think. They don’t seem scared, it’s more a fear my wife and I have of bacteria. Anyway, we took them both into the water at one point, just to dip their feet so they get it so one day we can all go in together. Anyway, we bought this tent for them to use to play in on the beach. My wife and I planned to take turns going in the water, while the other watches the kids, but we both just ended up staying and playing with them the whole time. WE. HAD. A. BLAST! The tent provides a good shade form the sun. We were all well lathered up with sunscreen, but the shade made a huge difference. The material’s strong. I believe we’ll have this for some time. And though it was a little intimidating to pack up, I figured it out pretty quickly, and I’m sure it won’t take me more than a second next time. The yellow spikes are useful if there’s wind or if you’re leaving the tent alone while everyone goes to the water, and there’s a nice window in the back. And of course, it pops right out when you take it out of the bag. Love this beach pool tent!
