Been there and done that too, even tried the ones with the guy ropes etc..... Now i have the type you buy from a beach shop, great, do the job, stops the wind, if you bang them in far enough do not fall over.

If you really mean "best windbreakers to buy", then it has to be Isabella's "Acryl" one, however its going to cost an arm and a leg.
They are superb, I was fortunate 10 or more years ago to get one at one third price in a closing down sale. That said it looks as good as new today and if I faced buying a replacement I would bite the bullet and buy one again.
They have steel poles along the top which gives it is great strength.

I have also found the cheapy beach type to be very good
No hassle, just bang them in.

That isabella one, looks nice would match my Awning perfectly but as you say expensive £140quid.

I've got the beach type too. wack them in job done.
Them with guy ropes take to much room up & if you sneeze they fall over.
