This is a reasonably priced outdoor shade, but is probably best only for specific usage. 1. Handle to move shade up and down is designed to go on the Right side.Because of porch configuration, I had to install with handle on Left side. As the shade clearly has a front side and back side, the best side of the shade faces out and not in. 2. Shade is best installed like a curtain rod is placed.I needed to install it on the bottom edge of the beam, making it very awkward/difficult to use handle to move shade up and down. You have to hold it up over your head and twist the handle (really.) Fun to ask friends to roll it up then watch everyone laugh as they figure out that is what they have to do to make it work (great party trick.). 
If it had not been so big and so much trouble to re-package and send back, I would have. I'll keep it for now, but will definitely replace in the future.
