Pros & Cons
Pros
It blocks the view but considering how well it cools the deck a trade off we are happy to make. The difference in temperature on the patio is surprising, and the fabric makes a lovely open shade. Material was used to make blinds for my gazebo.
Using a singer walking foot attachment to my standard singer sewing machine and regular polyester blend thread. Overall canopy gives my pergola such an upgraded look and the shade i need during those sunny summer days.
Cons
The tag on the package says 6' while the actual width is 3'. The medium rating of 40 to 70 percent coverage is very misleading and should state that the sun blockage is in the 5 to 10 percent range at best. Sun-blocking is highly misrepresented.

This is a great product and is very durable
The material doesn’t run much at all and i could easily make holes with tips of scissors and then pull thread through it.
Congratulations, unless you surgically re-folded just like the factory, the fabric will hold those creases forever.
Price
I love that it was such a great size for the price, we cut it into two.
Loved the book and the price was affordable for our group to buy a copy.
I’d like to get more but the price has doubled in a month and there seems to be only 1 size.
But, it works for what we wanted, and the price was great for our solution, until the new tree grows another 24 feet.
Packaging/appearance
Came as described except that the green end in the pic is not what i see in real time.
