We purchased the Eurekea Medium Solar Tent in preparation for a spring trip to the coast. We had debated whether or not to buy a pop-up or a more traditional tent. I practiced putting it up in the living room. It went up quite easily in under 5 minutes. In my living room, the tent was HUGE! and I was worried that it would be too large for our needs.
Our first day at the beach was incredibly windy; however, the tent was still easy to assemble. We did need to use both the sand bags AND the front stakes to keep it steady - but once up, it provided a great beach shelter. We had no problems with stability. A really nice place to get out of the sun for both adults and children. The cross ventilation meant it never got hot, even when the sun was at its hottest. Of course, it was April, and not August - but we are quite happy with the product.
One minor issue - as you push the poles through the sleeves, they tend to catch. Make sure you help thread it through so you don't tear the sleeves. A recommendation. Scoop the sand into zipper bags before you put them in the pockets to make cleanup easier. Reuse the zipper bags to be environmentally friendly.
