We bought this to use on a recent vacation to Florida. We tested it out on an Atlantic beach near Daytona and a Gulf side beach, both with different sand conditions and wind. The most important thing is to make sure that you follow set up instructions and start by angling the shade to face the direction of the wind. My husband forgot this step on our second day and we ended up pulling out the pulls and repositioning because the wind was catching one side. After we changed the position, we had no problems. It is definitely easier to set up with two people, but only took about 10 minutes. Wet sand filled the post bags faster than dry sand and it was very stable, even with some steady winds. We loved the included sand scoop and had several people stop and ask us where we got our shade because this one easily provided space for our family of 6 to sit and have shade cover on our beach chairs. We could have fit a few more chairs under the shade as well. You do have to move chairs around a bit to follow the shade as the sun position changes through the day, but we are very happy with our purchase. We left this shade with some local friends as a gift for their hospitality after our trip and they are excited to continue to use it.
