Recs for beach canopy
Posted on 7/24/22 at 2:14 pm

Looking to purchase new canopy for the beach-moving away from the folding 50 pound frame tents.
There are a million of those new style canopies on amazon. Is any one better than the others, and why?
TIA

I have the biggest one. I bought the posters info off the dark web for $20 and will be posting up next to him every weekend at the beach.

I really do have the biggest NESO. It is great. Just make sure you angle the poles when it is windy. My dumbass BIL thought they looked like they were going to fall when put at an angle (that is what the instructions say) so every time I wasn't there he would put them vertical and then the tent would fall. Of course he thinks its crap, but it stays up all day in 20mph winds left alone set up right.

If you don’t need something that’s real big, cool cabana is great. Very easy to carry and set up

Do you use 2 poles or 4? Is there a difference in stability?

We use a Shibumi weekly. We like a lot. Neighbors have purchased them as well. Weighs like 2 pounds and packs up easily. Takes under 5 minutes to set up.

Someone mentioned that they're loud. Is that the case in your experience?
I was looking at one.

Shibumi Shade
Mine has lasted 5 years and their customer service is near perfect.
THey will send you Tenacious Tape any time you ask for it.
Also, I had a shockcord go bad in the pole and they just ask you to turn it in at a retailer and they frikin hand you a new pole.
Chik Fila level service.

The more wind, the louder they are.
It can be a little loud at times, but to me it's worth it.

We used the neso our last two years at the beach. Last year it was windy enough that we only used 2 poles. With less wind, 4 poles is the way to go.

Baconismeatcandy,
The company was founded in 2016, but okay.
Bayouvette,
Yes, but that's only happened once to us in nearly 20 uses. It did happen, though.

I've used this canopy on numerous prairie dog hunts and beach trips w/o problems. If it gets too windy it can be dropped to a lower height.
