XTARPS 12 ft. x 22 ft. - 90% Shade, Black Color Sun Shade, Rectangle or Square Shade Sail, Great for Backyard, Patio, Kennel, Green House Shade Creation

I own the 6 X 30 90% shade mesh, I also own a 14 X 16 70% shade tarp, and a 12 X 6 70% shade tarp. All from this particular manufacturer, vendor, and all purchased here on Amazon.My 14 X 16 70% shade tarp is nearing the end of it's second season in the Southern sun. It is in perfect condition, looks brand new.A few weeks back we had a thunderstorm blow through with initial 40 mph peak gusts. It blew down a large tree in my yard. All three (3) of my shade tarps survived 40 mph gusts unscathed and unaffected.I attach them with those inexpensive colored aluminum snap clips (like you might see as a key-chain, typically rated 75 pound breaking strength). They should cost you .96 cents apiece on Amazon or at the Big Orange Box Hardware Store. Those I snap to either aircraft cable lines, or stout little eye-rings.This 6 X 30 90% tarp is hanging the entire width of my work-shed, the big open door of which faces West into the hot afternoon sun. The problem of the glaring late afternoon sun cooking me in the shed in August is solved.The sun is definitely, no question about it, cut down considerably under these tarps. You can feel it when you step into the shade from one of these. In my review of my 14 X 16 70% tarp I provide my pool temperatures before and after installation of the overhead tarp. The pool went from bath water warm to cool and refreshing.My wife wants me to put some of these over entire sections of her garden, which will be no problem to do. I'll sink some 6" X 6" X 12' posts, put the tarps on aircraft cable and she'll be able to open or close them at will (I made a simple pulley system with ropes to pull the tarps open or closed on both my pool and work shed).This is a fantastic, well built, high-quality product. You will not be disappointed.

This is exactly what we needed to help keep the sun off of our chickens during the day. We covered a chicken run with the 14x24 ft shade so we would have a little extra to hang over the sides and give more shade in the morning/evening. The 90% UV blocking is perfect since it lets a little bit of light in and the wind moves through freely so we don’t have to worry about this ripping off in a storm like a tarp would.If you are on the fence about buying this I can say that we were very pleased. This is a thick shade that still lets some light through so if you want it for privacy or shade then this is perfect. I did see some reviews that said the measurements were off but we didn’t need ours to be exact so I didn’t let that deter me.

We were pleased with our prior purchase a few years ago so we ordered more. We only recieved one instead of the three we ordrerd, but after contacting the seller, they sent the rest of the order quickly with an apology.

The 12’x14 tarp was not a rectangle! 6 inches shorter on one side. I had to compensate with larger bungee balls. Only kept it because I did not have time to return it.

I purchased this shade for my pergola .It fits perfectly and blocks 90% of the sun and it definitely keeps the back of my home cooler.Very well made and has held up to several wind storms without any damage.I highly recommend this product !

This thing is not squared at all so when you hang it there is severe drooping in some spots and bunched up fabric in the others.There is nothing "breathable" about it. Might as well just put up heavy duty plastic. Its now hotter in my gazebo than it is standing in the middle of the yard with the sun beating down on me.

I ordered 12' x 26' and proceeded to install. As a result of the difference in finished size, I have approximately 10" gap with no shade. Very disappointing. I choose not to "de-install" and return.Other than that, shade is as described and effectively shades approximately 24'.In reviewing description of product that I ordered prior to submitting this review, there are replies to finished size quesitons; however, one should not have to read questions to find this important information.

I purchased this for shade on my deck. This one is replacing one that I ad had for 10 years. The old one had started to deteriorate after ten years. This is an excellent item to provide shade on a deck without having a roof. Great construction and the grommets are very strong. I highly recommend this item.
