Sometimes you want sun and sometimes you need some shade!   This sail matches my pool perfectly!    The material is really nice and repels water.   It wasn’t necessarily advertised to do that but nevertheless it has a waxy fell and I find it to be repellent.    It’s made for shade and the size of this is perfect for a few people to sit in chairs watching kids swim without getting too hot.  
The Hardware that came with it is just solid - nothing cheap about this set.  Quality is Very Good!
