It has kept the hot sun off of back deck. In Oregon we have had hot dry winds daily. It is holding up very well. Like the center hook for hanging anything we wanted. We didn't put the screens up because wanted to enjoy the view of the pond and ducks and ducklings.
Very pleased. Looks great and has stood up to some pretty strong winds, which for the price, is pretty good value. Have had it set up for 2 months now.
