Super light and waterproof
I bought this to use as a cover for a trailer which has to be left outside. The material is completely waterproof and in texture is similar to the feel you might find on a sleeping bag. It is so light I struggled to control it in a mild breeze and it slips off things if you are not careful. There are 6 eyelets round the edge which look strong enough not to rip. I have used nylon rope to gather the edge round my trailer and it is very snug and completely dry. Very pleased.Update as of Aug 2020: Two issues have come up since my review. The eyelets are now rusting - what I thought were brass must be plated steel and the cover has faded quite badly in the light. Still waterproof though, 3 years later and the trailer is still looking good thanks to the cover.

Good cheap tarp to have as a secondary on hikes and treks.
I am very happy with this tarp. I have used it now 3 times outdoors, once to sit on in wet mud, once as a shelter on a wooden frame when it started to rain, and once and a windbreak for a fire. It stood up to all three occasions really well, with no rips or tears and now a nice added smokey smell ;). It is not quite as thick and durable as I had thought from looking at the pictures, but after testing it outdoors I am happy with how it held.Obviously its no DD tarp but its a quarter of the price. I would not take it as my main shelter tarp but its nice to have a cheap secondary on hand for those quick and dirty tasks. If it breaks I will probably buy another.

Lightweight ground sheet
Arrived on time. Quite thin but seems robust. Good reinforced eyelets and good size. Packs up small in useful drawstring bag. Useful metal pegs.Iām going to use it for linng my suv car when carrying trash to the rubbish tip so I may add a few more eyelets. Perhaps the sides could be more reinforced. Will also use as a shade attached with bungee cords at each corner. Should last.Update 3 months later. This is great it is robust, easy to clean, light and a great tarp.I have bought another one.

Good tarp
Bought the large size to act as rain fly for our Coleman instant dome 3 tent. Bought guylines and poles seperately. In practice found a slightly larger tarp would have been better for our tent but not the fault of the tarp and it did provide cover. It can be pitched on the diagonal which gives some extra length. There has been some small tearing around the grommets but this was after some VERY heavy and gusty winds in the highlands of Scotland and we were suprised our tent survived never mind the tarp. If I had tied more carefully and used bungees this would probably not have happened. Although lightweight and fairly thin the tarp is strong and performed really well in some heavy downpours. Good waterproofing. The tarp also packs down nicely into a small lightweight package. Overall a nice tarp at a good price.

Great tarp, especially for the price
Absolutely great tarp, especially for the price. I purchased the large one to use as a small porch area in front of my two man tent so we could cook and sit outside in the rain and it worked great. Not sure how well it would work as a hammock cover or a stand alone tent tarp but it could definitely be used as a groundsheet. The only one thing that I would like is to have 2 more eyelets on the shorter length to make setting up different configurations easier but other than that it is a perfect tarp and packs away nice and small and comes with its own pegs. Would definitely recommend this tarp to anyone looking to make more sheltered area for cooking or a ground sheet to sit on, might try it out with a hammock when I eventually buy one but have not tried that yet.

Multi use sheet.
Good tarp for the price. Waterproof as stated. Tested on a night out wild camping with overnight rain - i stayed dry. Only small quibble is that the eyelets, although reinforced in these areas i have still managed to tear a corner eyelet in gusty winds while strung up. Still completely useable though. Pack up lovely and small in the supplied stuff sack and doesnt weigh a great deal. Good as part of my weightsaving program when travelling with a minimum pack with just the essentials ( i consider a tarp and essential for shelter).

Cheap and tough.
The first I received had an issue with the position of the one of the central eyelet. But it was quickly replaced by the company with no quibble.The tarp is versatile and can be used for different things. My main use will be as tarp shelter with a central hiking pole.

Had forgotten to write a review but the seller was so exceptionally polite in asking if I could I came straight here. It arrived promptly and we have mainly used it as a form of lean-to shelter strung between 2 tents while hiking and wild camping. The product works brilliantly for this and has already given us somewhere to cook and keep kit in some very harsh conditions, staying waterproof through very heavy rain and intact during very strong winds.It packages small and light enough to throw in a bergan and after using it another member of our party of 4 is buying one to create a simliar shelter between the other 2 tents in harsh conditions.Such a simple piece of kit but well made and versatile. Always making sure to take one with me from now on.Thanks!
