We use them with the normal woodern poles which are about an inch.So anything that size or smaller will go in but will obviously wobble unless you can secure it some how.

We use our windbreaks far more now as it is so much easier putting them up and getting them down. No split or broken poles and no sore thumbs when I've missed with the hammer!!!

Ooops - duplicate.

We have a vango & it has long spikes on the top to hold the guys & short spikes on the bottom to stop it skidding, ours works great.
Dont do what some numpty did & put it the other way up then try to leather it into the groumd, all the spikes end up inside the poles.

Sean, at the end of the day, who cares so long as it stays up.

Well...just wasted £14.67. OH and I put this load of .... up in the garden this afternoon and even in a light breeze it blew over. 

If you are thinking about buying one don't bother!!

Also the noise of the windbreaker flapping drove us mad and that was only for 10 minutes before it blew down!!

Thinking of now buying a tent canopy with a cheap seaside windbreak that hammers into ground!
