Was easy to set up, came on time, all parts included. couldnt have been better! crappy service/Rio Beach-cabana sun shelter-sand anchor  On: 2008-08-29I ordered through Amazon (Rio Beach product) 1 Cabana Sun Shelter & 1 Sand Anchor for a beach umbrella. I received 3 of each....I called Rio Beach due to this error, they told me they would return my call in several hours....3 weeks later Im still waiting. My credit card was charged incorrectly for all these items that I did not order. Im not one bit pleased....... rio beach shade tent is no fun On: 2008-08-25I dont see why this thing gets great reviews. I used this tent two times at the beaches in Northwest Indiana and Ohio street beach in Chicago. Both days were very hot and windy. It was just the most miserable thing to try to set this tent up in the wind. It just kept getting blown over, even after it was set up. Look at its design, it just wouldnt withstand any sort of wind. The tent poles just kept popping right out of the tent loops, as there are no eye bolt type of anchors like a regular tent would have to hold the poles to the fabric loops. Also, the floor is plastic tarp material, meaning that sand is really attracted to it, and does not want to brush off at all! So on a hot, windy day, It was awful fighting this thing and laying on its sandy floor. I sold it off on ebay cheap to the next unsuspecting soul. The guy didnt leave any feedback, so I guess thats the amount of satisfaction he had! It may work for some folks, but not me. Chicago is too windy for this tacky thing. Dont bother buying it, research the net and get something more functional for the wind and beach. Great, but not outstanding.  On: 2008-08-16I bought this to use while outside anytime for an extended period, as I am very fair. It is a great little cabana, but it could be a little bit taller. It is really designed for the beach, and for you to be sitting on or near the ground. If this is what you are looking for, then it will work out well for you. It is easy to put up and take down, and fast too! Overall, it is great, but not outstanding. Nice, but cheap.... You get what ou pay for On: 2008-06-05Works great. But be careful setting it up on windy days. I pushed the rod through the matial the first time I was setting it up (with no real effort)... It is VERY THIN. I have used it twice and am looking too upgrade to the Eureka!® Solar Shade. Great product On: 2007-09-23Simple set up(best done off the beach if it is windy). I was surprised by the amount of room inside the cabana. Great for getting the grand children out of the sun. I dont think the items description indicated there is a floor but there is. My only complaint is the ground stakes need to be longer to hold the cabana in sand. I bought some of those at Wal-Mart. Rio Portable Cabana Shelter On: 2007-08-07Used this recently on a beach in the Caribbean. It was great. Fit nicely in beach bag and wasnt heavy to haul around. Easy to setup and take down. We were using beach lounge chairs so we didnt stake it down since the chairs were heavy enough to keep it from blowing away. The cabana saved us from getting burned. |
