Needs improvement
Fiddly to get it to stay up and having read previous reviews before using it I was quite careful not to break the poles. It feels weak and could use steel poles rather than fibreglass ones. It stood up through a thunder storm but I needed to add my own lines to keep the poles upright you get 4 poles but only 6 lines and you really need 8 for support in 2 directions. The material is only supported at the top by little plastic rings that popped of during the storm letting the material bunch up. Its close to a good product but not quite there.

Perfect for camping with limited space - possibly a traditional 'hammer it in' windbreaker is going to be more sturdy but when you have a mini it's your only option! The guy ropes actually make it reasonably secure.I don't want to say impossible to put up on your own but I haven't managed it yet! My 5 year old can easily hold onto it though whilst I peg it down - so no drama.Tested in summer winds - held up brilliantly. Not sure if I would trust it in winter or in particularly harsh weather.

Looks good but ineffectual when windy.
The good: It looks great in the bag - small, compact and light. Out of the bag it's easy to assemble and looked the business on a still evening.The bad: it is overwhelmed by a force 3 breeze. The bottom edges ride up the polls which bend so they are 1m high. No problem we thought, add more guy ropes. Still no good. After 2 days one of the polls split.Conclusion: if going camping with a vehicle, buy a traditional windbreak. They're just better.

Withstands high winds
When it arrived it was very compactly packed in its dedicated bag. I could hardly believe that just a big wind screen could fit in the small bag. It was assembled in a couple of minutes and is now standing in the garden for several weeks now. In that time it had to withstand wind speeds in excess of F6! I like the clear bits at the top as you can see through it and it does not feel like you're surrounded by walls.

Flimsy
A bit flimsy. Doesn’t stay upright in moderate wind. Can’t be used on sand.

Not for the faint hearted
Needs two people to erect simultaneously.

OK.
Reasonably easy to set up, but not able to post them in the ground, meaning it easily toppled over. Great with no wind and soft ground though.

Not as good as it looks
Not very sturdy at all. The poles are extremely weak and you need extra guy lines to stop it from blowing over. Not worth the money.
