Smaller than what I thought, but it is good quality and will work perfectly for our dog kennel. I love how it is breathable but yet will provide shade for our 3 German Shepherds. We may be looking at ordering another one just to put on the other side of the yard just in case they need some more shade from the sun moving. I gave it a 4 star just because it does not come with ties or a pole, so we have to go to the store and find ties and a pole so we can actually use it. It would be nice if it would provide at least the ties.
