My whole family thinks this parasheet is terrific. The little sack it folds up into is lightweight and easy to carry. The sand pockets anchor it easily on the beach no matter how windy the day is. It stays cool and dries very fast. At the end of the day you just stuff it back into its sack, where it's all ready for the next trip. Compared with the cost of other large beach blankets, I found the parasheet at about $40 to be a very good value.

OMG! So worth the price. I llive on the beach, and really.. the sand does NOT stick to this...at all. spills bead up and roll off.. Love it!, Matches the Caribe cabana perfectly. and super easy to roll up and stuff back into attached storage pocket.

I live near Siesta Beach, Sarasota FL where the sand is very fine and soft and sticks to towels and blankets. I was amazed that NO SAND sticks to this great product. I love the pockets in the four corners that you can fill with sand to hold it down on windy days. Also it's huge and can fit 3 people comfortably.

I live near the beach and was looking for a light weight beach blanket. Something big enough for two adults. The blanket is lightweight and has an attached carrying bag. Just fold stuff and go. Nothing sticks to it and it washes up great. Would definately recommend it for those that love the outdoors, lakes, beaches, secluded romantic spots.

This is a great beach blanket. We purchased this and took it on our vacation with us. Packing it was very easy (we were on a motorcycle) and it fits inside of the pouch that is attached to it.The sand does not stick to the blanket at all, we really enjoyed using this at the beach!

Works great. Just returned from the beach. The blanket stays cool and sand doesn't stick to it. The kids hung out on it to rest. It also folds up nicely into itself secured by drawstring. Now we are using it by the pool to lay on lounge chairs.

best item in my beach bag, I get compliments on it each time I use it. as a result of seeing it also bought a hammock from the same manufacturer

The picture is either deceiving or my expectations were different; the item, unfurled, does not quite like I expected it to (rougher than I imagined; resembles a tarp more than a throw). A little dissapointed.

We get to live on one of the most beautiful beaches in the state, so we go often! This blanket is the perfect material and size for the beach, and the fact that the pouch it rolls up into stays attached is brilliant! This would make a great gift for beach lovers!

This is a great little blanket. It does stay cool in the sun and on hot sand. It couldn't be any lighter or more convenient. I could see the envy on the faces of everyone on the beach when I pulled this huge blanket from its tiny carrying bag and then was able to leave it on the windy beach while jet skiing (thanks to the nifty pockets that can be filled with sand to keep the blanket in place). The icinig on the cake is of course giving it a quick shake to get off excess sand then quickly packing it back into the connected bag which fit nicely inside my purse. Definitely a great purchase. Can't wait to use again and again.

This item is made from a parachute type material and will be great to take to the beach. We disliked coming home with wet towels loaded with sand ... messy in the car and not fun to launder. We look forward to using our new beach blanket and expect that it will work out well.

Starts out as a little pouch and unfolds into a huge beach sheet .... Easy to refold and put back in its little built in pouch. It is heat resistant, easy to pack and lightweight. Used on the hot beaches in Hawaii and loved it. Sand didn't stick to it. Great product and highly recommend!

Overstock requested a product review before i have had a chance to use it. It came quickly, thanks Overstock. The stuff sacks are very pretty. They are light weight and don't cause pain when dropped on foot. They do not take up much space. Recommendation pending use of product. Previously, I used a shelter half as a beach (sand) cover, then would spread my towels out on it. The sand would shake from the shelter half easily. That is what I expect from this product. Do I get my free shipping now?
