This shade sale works great. It covers the area that I need covered. I can now open my blinds in the living room because the shade sail covers the patio and it’s not just the glaring sun. It took my husband a while to put it up, but It really shouldn’t take more than an hour. The material is strong  sturdy. It’s very wrinkled when it comes out of the box, but they start to leave once u get it stretched out. This will be great for entertaining in the back yard.
