saw one at our local camping store...was actually quite impressed as it felt really sturdy and looked stylish...
however...i think i was more attracted to the novelty of it more than anything else...personally i prefer the old style windbreaks that i can position the way i want to and this positioning tends to change from campsite to campsite...

We have seen one and we were quite impressed with it. It looked very sturdy and we liked the idea of the horizontal connecting poles. However for the moment funds do not allow it as it is quite expensive.

Saw one at Camping & Leisure World, Horsham the other day and thought exactly the same.
We have a Riviera windbreak from Riversway Leisure which we use in an L shape round our Solena's sun canopy to create an outside kitchen. That has steel horizontal poles at the top, like the new Outwell.
Yes got one of these mid summer last year. Only used it once, matches our Montana 6P perfectly. Takes about 10 minutes to put up and pegging out. Seems strong and stable but due to the cost its not something I would test out in a strong wind.
