What is the approx dimension of shade that this tent provides? Roof doesn't look very large so I'm concerned that it won't offer a lot of shade.

The amount of shade is dependent upon time of day...on the east coast the afternoon is usually well shaded with the sun moving towards the west and the canopy facing the east (ocean) with the back facing the sun...We have a 10 x 10 popup canopy as well as the "Lightspeed Quick"...and the Lightspeed actually offers more shade in the afternoon than our much larger popup canopy, because lightspeed has a back wall that reaches almost to the sand and the extra detachable wall that also extends to the ground to block the sun as it descends in the afternoon sky...The picture that the company uses has the canopy facing the sun...I posted photos showing the sun behind the canopy...

It is 5 feet at the center. The floor 8x8 feet. We have 2 small children and all 4 of is were able to lay down and take a nap in it, and still had plenty of room for our 2 coolers and duffel bag. Depending on if you keep the 3rd wall in it and the direction of the sun. We had enough shade for all of us all day. We did keep the 3rd wall in. That gave us the most shade. We found that the sand bags were enough to hold it down. The spikes were not any help in the sand.

Depends on spacing of slats but lets say theyre 2in apart that would be 50% shade at noon.I believe the fabric alone would do better than that.I put it on over 2x2 spaced slats and provides great shade.I also have a couple 12 x25 pieces to cover my trailer when in the desert.

The outside dimensions are 2" by 2 3/4". There is , however one problem. The shade does not attach securely, andtends to fall off.

It is definitely not a full 6 inches. It's a shade over 5 and a half inches high.

About 13 in.The shade is clearly not long enough . I am shopping for a new shade. However, I found a short bulb, but I dislike the shade. It's too short , too thin, and too cheaply made.

The tent has plenty of screens and a roof vent that works well. I would not try to sleep in it with the vent not open all of the way or it will be stuffy. I found that with the roof vent open and the screens partially open it does fine in both summer and winter. The tent handles the rain without any leaks and is a breeze to setup even by yourself. I recommend putting a tarp underneath it to protect the floor from anything that might puncture it. The tent handles the wind really well and makes camping enjoyable by not having to fight with poles coming apart. Best tent for your money in my opinion!

I have never used it "Tent Size" but the lowest level is about half the size of what you see. When you pull the poles out of the box, you have to pull them up to this height, so I think it would be appropriate. However, its not the sturdiest thing ever. I mean we bought it to use at Halloween as a fortune teller booth, but there is no bottom to it. Those sheets that you see have a zipper which holds them in place and then they have a flap in the front. You would need some kind of "floor" or mat at the bottom if you intend to sleep in it. Its also fantastic to get out of the sun a bit. We bought a second one to sit outside with small children or babies so they dont get burned. Because of the flap, you can still see whats going on outside from the front.... Hope this helped you!

I don't have this tent anymore but we had it on top of a king size. It is very flexible because of it's bottomless design. You should be able to make it work.

Not sure the dimensions (they are on the Amazon site), but if comfortably fit two children sleeping; and even fit Dad when he joined them - although the girls may not say that was all that comfortable. Great little tent, especially because of the floor, which can be used to anchor the tent with weight even when the wind was high.

I can't really answer these questions about this tent. There was a mixed up when I ordered this tent. Turns out they were actually out of stock so I got upgraded to a three room, 10 person tent. The 10 person tent has a mesh roof. The window mesh is small enough to keep out bugs and the door opens both ways.

When fully assembled, the height is about six feet and the canopy size is 6 x 6 feet. Thus, giving you 36 square feet of coverage shade - depending the angle of the sun. If you GOOGLE "Go Hybrid Backpack Canopy Dimensions", you'll see some various pictures of the canopy w/someone next to it too - if helpful.

It's about 4.5-5 inches across and about the same length. It's not an ordinary lamp shade. It's plastic...kind of frosty looking. Not sure you'd be able to find a shade that would attach due to how the top is. I'll try to put a picture up... Hope that helps! I still love my little lamp :) Recently it came in handy during a power outage.

Any sun coming from those is negligible... being so low to the ground. I actually was wishing there was more mesh on the back for even more airflow. The biggest factor for how much shade there is depends on the angle to the sun. Facing south, you'll only really get shade on your upper body at mid-day anyway. If you face any other direction, you get enough shade for 3+ adult camp chairs and gear and won't really notice light coming through ventilation mesh. If you face NW/N/NE, you'll have enough shade to have lots of kids/adults lay out a blanket in front of the chairs and have nice shade.

it would definitely provide shade.... although despite the vent in the back, it didn't have a whole lot of air flow unless you were right near the front.

Yes it is, it provides descent shade. It's a little flimsy in the high winds so make sure you retract it, when your not using it

The roof panels are translucent.............. so they will not provide complete shade; you will get diffused sunlight similar to the effect of frosted glass.

Long maybe 8 to 10 inches wide 4 inches deep. I wish I got a bigger one. Consider plant height in containers keeping distance from light. Tent is thin but keeps the heat in and most importantly the light. Great tent just wish I would have considered plant height in containers.
