I bought this pop up sun shade when I'm with my dogs and can't find any shade in the hot summer sun. It's so small and compact before unfolding and a nice size when popped open. I am about 5'4" and I fit quite nicely with my two dogs. Many reviews have said how hard it is to refold it. So I was prepared to be frustrated when I tried to close it. Wow, it practically folded itself up in a few seconds! Now I must say I have a sun shade that goes in the front window of the car that also folds up in a similar manner so I guess that gave my some experience. By way of suggestions, follow the first couple directions on the card. Bring the two sides together and then fold it in half and make sure all the bottoms are together. Then you just twist it and it pops closed. I do remember when I first got my sun shade, it took a few times to figure out which way to twist. This is great!

This tent was literally the best. I purchased this for vacation and it is a pop up tent that you stake down at the beach. I love the quality, open mesh back to let the wind in, and it’s spacious. It’s very light to carry and is flexible/strong like a car shade cover. You can YouTube how to fold and it’s easy to get in the bag once you figure out how to roll it, Myself and boyfriend could sit comfortably in there and likely a baby/toddler could also sit in with two adults. We are 5’3” and 5’8”. The best thing I purchased for my vacation! My relatives already want to steal it for their family. Looking forward to many years with it.

This thing is great! My son was able to get in it & take a nap out of the sun on the beach. He’s 8 and I didn’t bother anchoring the thing down. I don’t recommend drinking 12 beers then trying to fold it back up though.

I loved this thing!! I was able to pack it in my luggage. It comes in its own carrying sleeve. It's super easy to pop up and fold back. It had enough space for me to lie in. I even laid down and breastfed the baby in, with privacy. The baby loved eating her snacks in the cool shade. When we were done, we rinsed the sand off and folded it back into sleeve. I will be buying a few more for my family. We have a big gazebo sized tent that we bring to the beach every year, but that thing is a beast to carry. These pop up tents will be great for each kid to have their own private space/shade and we can use the gazebo tent for the food area. You can also clip the stroller fan to this thing and stay really cool.

this is seriously the best thing in the world, if you have a baby, and you are going to the beach BUY THIS!!!!!!!! we were in mexico for 2 weeks and this was a serious life saver, my husband and mother thought i was crazy for getting this and putting it in the luggage - but listen, it was the best thing i could have ever packed!! 1. nap time was amazing 2. privacy changing baby 3. nursing 4. folds easy 5. lightweight 6.kept toys from blowing in the wind 7. kept out sand 8. shade and sun protection 9. keeps sun out of the eyes for a sleeping baby lots of babies were at this resort we were at, and all the moms either had the baby sleep in their arms or their strollers,- which looked awful and we were rolling like pros even tho we are first time parents!!

My kids love playing with tent so I bought this Automatic Pop Up from iCorer for them to play in it when we go to park. The size is pretty good when fully opened. It's at 65" x 59" x 43.5" and large enough for 2 toddlers to play inside with space for their toys as well. I really like the instant pop-up feature as it makes things so much easier when you already have a lot of things at hand, such as water, food...etc for the kids. Do watch out when you take the tent out of the bag because it really POPS UP right way the moment you remove it from carrying bag. The tent utilizes a coated fabric so it has can block out UV. There is a large mesh window in the lower back of the tent for ventilation. There is no hard metal/ sharp objects inside the tent at all so I feel pretty safe to let my kids playing inside. The tent is strong enough to hold itself even when there is strong wind blowing (however, it's still a fold-able/portable tent so I don't expect it can stand still if people try to push it around). It's a little trick to fold the tent the first time and it took me roughly 10 minutes to figure out how to do it. It's nice that there is another instruction sheet attached onto the carrying bag because I lost the instruction right after opening the package. The basic idea is to fold the tent in half and try to squeeze it into a circle shape and stuff it into the bag. It does get much easier the second time and I can do it without following the instruction sheet.

Very awesome tent for what it is. Packable, light and easy to carry. Didn't have any issues folding it back. Basically if you have those sun shields for your car that fold you can fold this up. It is a tight fit you can't put more than one chair in it and you can't really sit up inside with more than two people because of the way the tent narrows towards the top. But when it's two women and we were laying down it was perfect. You can put your stuff inside and weigh it down with a cooler and it was great. There's ventilation through the back but it's not adjustable... So it's not 100% private, but if you don't care then it's great. I believe there are some similar tent options that have a zip up vent. I kind of wish I got the one with the internal pockets. But this does have some outside pouches and we put our flip flops in them. Bottom lin is that this beats the heck out of trying to shove an umbrella in the sand or bringing a 15Lb pop up tent that needs four people to stand it up. It does blow in strong wind but it didn't affect the frame at least not when we used it. I believe if it did you could contact the manufacturer and they'll replace it. We've never stayed at the beach for more than a couple hours just cause it's hard to stay out in the heat without some reprieve. This pop up was great and we stayed at the beach midday til almost sunset. No burns, no overheating, no exposed food for the sea gulls to pick at. Overall happy with the purchase and performance.

Love our beach tent. Easy to install and it kept our belongings out of the sun. The difficulty was to fold it back up. It truly was a comical act watching us to fold it. Love this tent.

Haven’t taken it to the beach but I opened it in my living room and folded it back without a problem. It’s not brain surgery, just look at the instructional video. I was hesitant with the reviews but it looks like a wonderful product and so easy and portable. Can’t wait to take it to the beach.

Hilariously hard to collapse but when you get the hang of it the pop up is super handy. There are instructional videos to guide you in folding this up, so don't leave the house without watching and practicing or you will never get it back in the carrier! We live in AZ so a compact shade tent is great to have!
