I purchased the Deluxe Portable Screen Room w/ Carrying Case for my three retired greyhounds. We travel frequently, often to areas that are warmer/sunnier than what we are used to and protection from the sun is important. This past week we traveled to southern Utah to attend an annual fundraising gathering and I had my first opportunity to use the portable shade. Overall it was a great success -- it went up easily and was there was plenty of room for the three dogs to stretch out in comfort. I was able to put the shade up and take it down by myself - there is a slight learning curve in folding the shade down, so do practice before you use it for the first time. It took up minimal storage space in the car, and can be packed flat with other items on top. Other attendees were impressed with the set up and asked for information about cost and purchase options. The only drawback is that the framewire is already wearing through the bottom fabric where it came into contact with the ground. I will be looking for some blue duct tape to cover the damage and to prevent further wear before our next use. This is disappointing, but not a deal breaker for me, although it could be for you. I purchased this during Overstock's Tent Sale, so it was extremely affordable and I feel that I have already received full value for my purchase. One other thing to note. There is no bottom/floor to this pop-up, so you will need to use the included stakes if there is more than a slight breeze. The upside to no floor is it stays clean and dry and in our use, no toenail damage. Overall I am pleased with this product as it does exactly what I expected and fulfilled my requirements.
