Probably a good bit of kit, but after the summer we just havn't had you just gotta laugh at the description.

UV-resistant, wing-shaped canopy, perfect for the beach or garden, offering valuable sun protection in the long, hot Summer months.

  • Factor 25 sun protection

OR wanted over £12 for a new set of 2 poles so I reckon at £19.99 it was a bagain - even if the sun shelter itself isn't waterproof I can use the poles for the OR Canopy on the caravan. It does say on it to re-seal the seams and re-waterproof it if necessary, so I take it that means Fabsil would work.
Do you remember that we had ours on the front of our diablo at Litchfield Caz, really useful bit of kit, we got ours last year but the green one does look really nice. We used ours at the poole meet for shelter from the rain and it didnt leak but could have done with a pole with a towel over the end putting up it the middle as it did puddle a lot

Hi
your answer Buy an extending cloths-prop from Wilkinson's about £3 and two awning suckers to fit each end HERE they look like This

Another bit of kit we've acquired over the last couple of weeks! It was reduced in Aldi to £9.99 and there was only 2 so I had to buy it! We did look like fools trying to put it up the other weekend though!

wot!  It must have gone up again because i paid 14.99 yesterday

just as well as at 9.99 i may have had to have bought 2 .. which is what i did when robert dyas brollies were half price at 9.99  .. one of which got broke in the wind and the other one took off and pierced my tent annexe and now the bottom half of the pole seems to have gone missing.....

 

and i thought my karma was going well....

 

so well i spent 4 quid on the lottery yesterday but i didn't win anything

I stopped the pooling by using two poles at full height, and the other two with the bottom segment off and the two black pointy things on the ends.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

Bought one of these from Aldi last year. Used it in France this year and found it very useful, not just as a sunshade but a rain shelter as well. Didn't have heavy rain, but no sign of any leaks. Bargain at the price.
