Glymnis Pop Up Beach Tent Small for 1-2 Person/Large for 3-4 Person, UV Protection Beach Sun Shelter with Zipper Porch, Portable Sun Shade Tent for Beach, Garden, Picnic

This tent is amazing for travelling light. We used ours as a sun shelter for our 18 month old, and it was perfect. It’s a simple pop up in an instant making assembly super easy! It’s sturdy once pinned down and doesn’t get too hot inside when zipped up. The pockets that line the inside we’re handy to keep all of the essentials in for quick access, and it’s just as easy to fold back down and into the bag.It’s compact, light and the ideal tent!

Excellent pop up beach shelter. Really easy to set up (just pops open) and with a little practice easy to store away. Nice carry bag that hangs over your shoulder leaving your hands free for all the other beach/picnic stuff you will be carrying. Blocks sunlight really well and is very cool inside even on a very hot day. The pockets on the side to weigh it down (with sand) are really useful when you can't use the stakes provided.Easy to clean and very lightweight it is excellent for the price.My only gripe is the window at the back let's in the rain so might be worth buying a cover that can go over it and be weighted down, if you know you are going to be using it in the rain I would advise buying a shelter without a window.Pair this with a windbreak and you have a perfect little beach camp/base that you can store all your stuff and keep out of the sun with.

I haven't actually used this on the beach yet. Initial observations are that it is nice and lightweight. It is easy to put up. I initially struggled with folding it up and the video isn't brilliant on this bit but I managed it and I think once I have got the knack it will be fine. Looking forward to trying it out

I read lots of reviews before buying this tent for my little granddaughter to use whilst away in Turkey last week (very hot 32 degrees).The tent was an absolute godsend, apart from doing lots of swimming she sat in the tent for most of the other times colouring, watching her iPad and playing with her Peppa Pig figures and keeping out of the hot sun.In fact she made friends’ with another little girl (4 years old) and they both played in there together. There was plenty of room for both of them to lay down and both could stand up in the tent (both the girls are quite tall for their ages (3+4 years old).The carry bag was very portable and fitted into my large suitcase no problem. I was impressed with the quality and the stitching and had no damage or problems to report after using it everyday on holiday. The front of the tent can be zipped up for privacy although I preferred keeping the front down (has double zips which are very good).Because the grassed area where I sited the tent was in the shadows for a lot of the day I didn’t have to open up the back part of the tent which has a mesh window but this is a nice option for ventilation.I found folding the tent very easy and I became very proficient after the first day - basically don’t force the tent, if you’ve got it in the right position it literally collapses in easily. The folding instructions are clear and sewn into the bag. I’d probably suggest having a couple of practices before taking it out somewhere.When opening the tent, it has an elastic strap that holds the tent in place and flat, be careful as you remove this as the tent springs open very quickly.The tent is supplied with guy ropes as well as metal tent pegs - I only used the tent pegs to keep the tent in place on the grass. The metal pegs are quite “soft” and one or two of mine bent easily when I was trying to push them into the ground.I feel this is an absolute bargain for the money, it is a well made sun tent and would highly recommend this to anyone. I’m fortunate enough to be going away to Egypt in November with my Granddaughter and will definitely be taking this amazing little tent!

Plenty of room and easy to pop up and more importantly, put away. Great product.

We wanted a beach tent that popped up , was light to carry and room for 2 people. We bought the large one of these. Just big enough for 2 adults to sit in. The small one wouldn’t be. It’s very easy to put up and once you have the knack, easy to put down. Suggest you practice at home to save entertaining the whole beach! We had several rain showers one day at the beach so popped inside, zipped it up and stayed dry. They weren’t heavy showers and water did come in a little bit but that’s all. I don’t think it would cope with a prolonged deluge. We had it out on one windy day. We put plenty of sand in the pockets and used the guide ropes. We didn’t have as much room in the tent that day as the back was being blown in but to be expected. So it has survived its first week on the beach with no problems. Pay more and you could get a better quality tent but for the price you can’t go wrong.

So far this is excellent . It comes everywhere with us. 8 month old is protected from the sun and 2 year old loves playing in it ! Seems sturdy . I bought heavier duty pegs separately for when we are at the beach (see pic) and these are excellent for sand. I don’t think the original pegs would be enough in sand.. It will fit in my large suitcase for holidays . I watched the q code YouTube. Video on how to collapse and that really helped .Don’t need to carry a floppy parasol anymore as this is the perfect accessory for sunny days with small children . No more beach shade anxiety either

Pretty good. Lightweight, sunshield, windshield and shower proof. A bit tricky to put away unless you've practiced quite a few times - we did entertain the crowd though!
