Shibumi ShadeWorld's Best Beach Shade, The Original Wind-Powered® Beach Canopy with Wind Assist Included, Provides 150 Sq. Ft. of Shade, Compact & Easy to Carry, Sets up in 3 Minutes

Very much worth it! Day one was a light breezy and the Shibumi did great on the beach. Was easy to put up and only had to adjust for a shift in this wind once. Was super quiet. Day two was WINDY and it provided the perfect shade again. Not super quiet in stronger winds but the ocean waves drowned out the flappy noise. Lots of people commented on it as they walked by, some taking pictures of the label. Much better shade than the old beach umbrella we have always used. It is nice and tall so we can stand up, it stays put and provides shade for my family and our gear. Yes, it is pricey but worth it!

Have had this for 3 summers now and would absolutely recommend. I was initially hesitant based on the price, but this is lightweight and is BY FAR the easiest shade to set up. Over the years I've used umbrellas, party tents, tailgating canopies and none are as easy as this.It relies on wind, so don't expect to use this somewhere other than the beach, like at a kids soccer game, for example, unless you have constant wind. Haven't had any issues with it staying up while at the beach, as there's always plenty of wind.If the wind shifts you'll need to move the poles on one side so that it faces the wind. There's a lot of leeway even if you don't, but making adjustments takes all of 10 seconds and very little effort. Also, it does make noise, like a flying flag, so did the umbrellas, tents and canopies I've used in the past. This isn't any worse.It stores easily, is lightweight, easy to haul around, and can be set up and put away with very little effort. The part that takes the longest is putting sand in the bag. It is expensive, but if you go to the beach often, this is well worth the price for the convenience it provides.

Awesome idea. Easy to set up and take down. Providing great amount of shade. Price is higher than the traditional tents but item is less bulky and not as much of a headache to get it set up on a windy day. Would purchase again

Our new sun shade is a total game-changer for beach lovers at our beachfront rental! Guests (and us!) are raving about how easy it is to set up, light to carry, provides shade all day with quick and easy adjustments, and a breeze to store when not in use. Plus, it dries super fast! It's definitely a new favorite amenity for our guest. We love the design, especially the use of a natural resource making it more eco-friendly than other shade types we have used. This shade has been in use since about Memorial Day Weekend of 2025 and we have been pretty much fully booked since, so it has seen a lot of day after day use at the coast.Since this shade is being used almost daily over the past 2 months, we would like to note the quality of the shade's construction along with it's durability through extended use.I will be sure to pop back on to provide any updates if needed.

We live at the beach. We have had this Shibumi since purchase date and have used it almost daily since. It’s so easy to set up my 70+year old MIL can set it up and take it down by herself. When we first purchased we were impressed by the light weight of the product. I realize it’s only tent poles and nylon so it does seem expensive for the product, however we have found with all the repeated use that it is very durable, functional and is so much better than an umbrella (which we had to continually purchase and they failed after just a few months) the Shibumi shade truly is a great value for the cost. No one has experienced any sunburns while relaxing under the Shibumi even when sunscreen was forgotten!! So the SPF is on point. I recommend.

This is an awesome product. waaay better and safer than beach umbrellas. Easy to set up and take down and stores in a small bag. Makes a large shady area that can fit 8 people if you do it right. Windy days are no problem.

Worked well on the North Carolina beach as long as there was a steady breeze. when there was no breeze the wind assist worked well, it says upto 8 but 4 fit comfortably, my thinking is maybe 6 at the most

We love this Shibumi Shade! It performs beautifully in strong beach wind conditions, set up and take down are a breeze (pun intended), and it packs up neatly in the attached pouch for easy transport and storage. We tried another less expensive sun-shade but it didn’t stand up to the beach winds. The Shibumi has no problem - so well worth the extra few dollars!
