Review: Top notch, high-quality, great tarp/tent poles. Very versatile. - Top notch, great tarp/tent poles. High quality & very versatile. I have used these over & over for several years on camping trips. They are strong (for telescoping poles). With the rubber cap, they can be used in the center of tarps without puncture. They will support a lot of weight. I see a few reviews that show poles broken in half. These are hollow, light, telescoping poles. If substantial horizontal pressure is put on them - yes, at some point they will snap - like any other thin horizontal pole. They are not solid pipes and not intended to be. They will likely withstand forces that other similar telescoping poles will not. If you intend to use them fully extended in 20+ mile an hour winds at the beach or in the desert, then you can expect them to break. Its not a flaw. Get yourself some pipe or conduit if you need that kind of support; and/or add more guy lines. For supporting tarps & tents while camping and keeping sun or rain off of you, these work great and will last. The only problem I've ever had was the telescoping function 'sticking' after the poles become muddy/dirty. This is to be expected and is easily solved by cleaning with water. I should also mention that I've never had any problem with the telescoping sections 'slipping' at all.
Review: Sturdy poles plus stakes, rope, and a tarp equal robust camping cover goodness - I used four of these telescoping poles along with a 10x10 foot Aqua Quest Guide tarp, eight stakes (two per pole) and Nite Ize Reflective Cord to tie each pole from tip to ground at two points each. The result was exceptionally stable in heavy wind, bright sun, high 90's temps, and light nighttime rain along the Metolius River for a wonderful week of camping. The poles were easy to telescope up to the desired height and tighten to ensure a slip-free extension, on the first try without consulting instructions. The diameter of even the smallest pole section was sufficiently large to ensure that the entire pole length when extended to eight feet high had zero wobble. This enabled me to tighten the ropes with simple double half hitch knots to pull the corners of the tarp nice and taut. Even after four days of camping, the tarp remained taut and the poles showed no sign of slipping. The rubber bottoms also held firmly against the sandy ponderosa pine forest floor. I especially liked the easy-tighten turn expansion lock on the pole segments that had a nice ergonomic feel to them. Aesthetically, they look great especially with the snazzy silicone round slide-on tips that cover the stainless steel screw on tips that fit into the tarp's corner holes. I was surprised by how light-weight the poles were given their healthy bulk. Although I wouldn't likely hike these in for miles, they were excellent given the "Glamping" that I did with the car just 500 feet away. They telescoped down to a length that was short enough to comfortably fit into my modestly sized rooftop Thule bag, with length room to spare at the ends. These poles together with the tarp packed to a much smaller size than a pop-up canopy tent, yet capably performed the same desired function, providing exceptional relief from the sun to the labrador retriever puppy dog's crate and playpen for a stretch of days without any muss or fuss. Note: Their customer service was excellent. They recently began including the silicone round slide-on tips with the poles. The first set I ordered was before this addition. I wrote a brief email to them and within less than 24 hours they responded and had pair in the mail free of charge that arrived in time for my next camping trip.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good product
*by T***Y on April 6, 2026*

these are great. they don't hold heavy canvas well when fully extended as they start to bow, but shorten them a little at each section and the hold very well. they pack well and seem well constructed. will likely purchase these again.
