Petra's 20 Ft. X 10 Ft. Rectangle Sun Sail Shade. Durable Woven Outdoor Patio Fabric w/Up to 90% UV Protection. 20x10 Foot. (Desert Sand)

The thing is such a value. Added it to my deck which is usually not usable after about 10 am when the sun peaks the house due to heat. This provides a perfect amount of shade. It’s been up over a year now and has withstood wind and rain without any issues. Easy to install. I do suggest choosing an size that’s about 12-20 inches shorter that what you need and get you some good turnbuckles at the hardware store. Also get some eye bolts and lots of S hooks to connect everything. Make sure to fully extend the turn buckles, hook everything up, and then start tightening down. You’ll have to tighten everything further after it rains for the first time.Don’t miss this great product.

We put this on our 20 x 12 deck last summer and it works great. It's not waterproof so the deck still gets wet but that's fine. It keeps us cool while at the pool and it shades the sliding glass door from the hot afternoon sun. I took it down over the winter and will be putting it back up this weekend. I bought a 10 foot pvc pipe that is 4 inches round I think. I put a round bowl like cap on one end and a flange on the other. I put it in the middle of the deck and the bowl end tents the sail because it seems to sag. Maybe I wasn't getting it tight enough but this worked and looks great. The flange end has screw holes so that I could screw it into the wood deck. Happy customer. Also, the material doesn't absorb water so it stays very light even when rained on.

The first one I ordered arrived damaged. I contacted the seller and without hesitation they resent me a new one. Unfortunately I now need to resend to exchange for a different size as this is too big and should have gone with a 16x27 instead.Aside from that, the quality is great built tough and looks great once up. I will update this review once in able to send this one back and get the size I need. I trust the seller will help me out, they’ve been pretty awesome to work with so far.

We got the first one nine years ago and have used it above our patio every summer. This year, a strong storm pulled it down. We replaced it with the same exact one, except the new one has a seam that runs the entire length in the middle of the shade. Over time, the seam blends in for me, but my wife is annoyed by it all the time. She's continually asked about replacing it. I sent a message to the seller and didn't get a response.

Needed it earlier in the summer during the heatwave, but look forward to the next hot spell. After careful measurment, I ordered two of these because they were ideal for my southern exposure deck. I also had a local fence company weld me up a couple of 9 foot galvanized fence posts with custom crosspieces on the top and special holes drilled in them so that I could bolt them to my existing deck railing. That, along with the recommended mounting hardware that is often suggested when ordering these shade sails from Amazon and I had it up in no time. I wish it was waterproof, but no matter. We usually don't sit outside when it's raining because it's usually too cool for us then. Our 20' x 13' sail provides adequate shade for most of our dining room and kitchen windows which are adjacent to the deck. I mounted the brackets about 9' up from the deck on the side of the house and attacked them to the top of my custom railing posts at a height of about 8 feet. That leaves plenty of clearance for full view out both windows while still providing shade to most of the kitchen and dining room and a good portion of the deck. It was a little inconvenient that the seller would not ship this item to Alaska, and it cost me a little extra to have it mailed from my parents home out-of state, but I'm still happy to have it. The custom welded fence posts were a bit pricey too, but I believe they are necessary so that the sail will hold up in moderate breezes. I'll definitely take it down during storms though, so it doesn't shred.

Living in Louisiana our pool was in direct sun light all day, water temperature felt more like bath water. We hung our shade sail over the pool, dropped water temperature by 10 degrees and gave us shade in pool!

After 7 years of the Florida sun, wind and rain the buckle finally torn off. This is the best shade money can buy. Was so happy I could order it again with a click of a button. New one came, hung it over the pool, looked up and WHAT, a big seam right down the middle. Why the seam?? The first one was one piece.

For the past few years we have been searching for a solution to the tremendous afternoon summer sun the front of our house gets. Short of permitting a big expense for a front porch roof addition I came across this sun shade. We still get just the right amount of sun filtering through but the oppressive heat is no longer an issue. It has also made the front of the house feel like an extra living space we weren’t able to enjoy previously. We did also add galvanized wire through each side in order to make the shade sturdier and less susceptible to wind gusts. Wish I had found this sooner!
