Would it be fair to say that I think this is one of the best products since sliced bread? We could rename or nickname this the Easy-Brella. Ha!
The Sport-Brella is so easy to take a long, it fits nicely into the sleeve to keep it in one spot. It is a bit long, I have a small car and it fits just fine into my trunk or backseat. I have kept it in my trunk all summer for our trips to the river. We have even used it a couple of times in the yard!
The Sport-Brella offers instant portable sun, wind and rain protection with UPF 50+ quick shade protection. It is so easy to set up, it’s advertised that it takes 3 seconds. And that’s just about right. The SportBrella is 8 feet wide to fit the family or even the team. Available in green, blue and red.
One thing I was worried about for us using the Sport-Brella, is that we live in a very rocky area. You can see in the pictures here that the beach at our local river is nothing but rocks. The tip of the Sport-Brella is a like a spike, and it slid right down into the rocks with ease. My husband dreaded it at first, but as I said we keep it in the trunk of the car now. We do so many things outdoors, fishing, camping, swimming. It’s so easy to take along, the set up and take down are easy as pie.
It comes with stakes and tethers to tie it down and pockets on the inside to store them for take-down storage. Flaps remove on the top and sides so that air can get through, another huge plus for us!
There just aren’t enough words to truly express how easy the Sport-Brella is to put up and take down. The width is a blessing in it’s own, and easily allows for several people to sit under it with comfort. To transport it is just as easy. If I had to choose just one product to keep on hand for our outings, this is the one I would choose. It’s not just our favorite, but you can read what Disney’s Family Fun Magazine has to say about it.
