Shade Sail Square Waterproof 280gsm 3.6m Graphite

This is a good product but I have found that the fastening system provided lets it down. Also, there are no instructions for the recommended types of knots to use . I found that an anchor bend was ideal to attach the cords to the D rings on the shade sail as this knot does not jam and is easy to undo but I have not been able to find a suitable knot for tightening the cords which does not jam and which I could get tight enough without it slipping. To use the cord system with tensioners I think you would need to be a fairly muscular male with impressive biceps. I now use ratchet tie downs instead and find that these work far better as I can now get the shade sail nice and tight and it is performing brilliantly.

Great quality but poor shape in the sides. When it rains it fills with water.

Always sag in the middle although the slope and tension is alright. And once it sags, it stretches the fabric then it sags forever no matter how much angle of the slope you change.

Good product, second one bought, first one lasted around six years. Held up very nicely in some strong winds

Installed this with 300mm of fall into one corner and as much tension as I could possibly apply. There is no installation guide but I feel this should be good. The centre still sags enough that when the first rain fell it filled up with water, had to pull it down in a raging storm. Don't recommend unless you have the option/want to put a huge angle on it.

The shade doesn't let the water through, so it's more of a canvas. So even though the shade was angled, the middle sags and fills with water when it rains ,the only way to stop it was to put a pole in the middle like a tent.

Lovely colour and easy to install but unfortunately it was not water proof. A light, short shower was fine but anything heavier, it came through. So we had to put a tarpaulin over the top of it. We will be removing it and will look for another option so for us it has been a waste of money.

not as good as expected, rained soon after putting it up, rain formed a huge pool in the middle of the shade sail, looking more like a pregnant shade sail than anything else. The material does not allow water to penetrate through.

Very happy so far as it has just gone up. Hoping it lasts the distance!

Very sturdy shade sail
