So impressed with the quality of this shade sail. The D rings look pretty sturdy and the material (although not my first choice in color, is all they site had offered at the time I ordered) looks as durable as the last one I had. I have not assembled it as of yet still waiting on the hardware to arrive. The shade sail Ive had in the past seem to last a good while but do deteriorate over time as anything these days in the Florida sun. Looking forward to spending summer days in the shade!
