Not sure you can get fabric poles-only windbreaks any more. If you are talking about the stripey seaside ones. £10 at B&M etc. Crappy maybe, but you will get five years out of one. One of mine has just started to deteriorate after maybe 12 years. The other wont last that long, i can tell already. Obviously a better quality crap plastic back then!

no they are noisey, the fabric ones in wind are much better, for that but require drying out if they get wet

They are, but I bought my 4 panel one second hand at a very good price. To be honest I don't think it had been out of the pack. Try Preloved or Gumtree.

We have had ours over 12 years and it still looks good as new. We have the vision version so you can see through it.

I bought an Isabella one and I like it:

Isabella Wind Screen Sun 3 sided Grey

Their Stabilo system means only 4 short stubby poles to be bashed into the ground and not tall poles. Very well made and sturdy.

You could buy a Blue Diamond 7 pole version then cut it down to make 2 smaller ones...
