This was literally so simple to take out and set up- you just pull it out of the sleeve and it expands on it's own! It's really light, so if you have any breeze at all you will need to weigh it down. We got this to keep our two rambunctious golden retriever puppies (both about 35 lbs at this point maybe?) out of the sun for a trip to the beach. What was great is that since the frame of this is all one piece and is very flexible, nothing broke when they decided to use the inside of it as a thunderdome for a wrestling championship. They tumbled together inside that thing end over end down one side of the beach and back the other- it was really quite comical and looked like something out of a cartoon.
Getting it back inside its storage sleeve is a whole different story though- it was impossible for me to do! I'm sure it can be done, but after a full day in the sun, an adult bevvy or two (or 5), and only devoting about 10 minutes to the project, it was impossible for me. You have to like, figure 8 the frame somehow, but it wanted to keep snapping open before I could stuff it back in the sleeve. I felt like I was following the instructions (not many things like this can outsmart me!) but still wasn't able to fit the folded-up shade back into its storage sleeve. I felt like if I maybe had 2 extra hands I could have held it tight in all the places it needed to be held so it could fit back into it's sleeve. But I remember getting it folded up, then having my husband hold up the sleeve and thinking to myself "yeah, that's never going to fit back in there". So either I was missing steps in the folding process, or it's like when you buy a comforter (that is folded by machine to fit into the zippered bag, only to never fit again because people don't have industrial textile folding machines at home....yet.)- either way, it has never gone back into its sleeve and will forever remain open until we eventually get rid of it.
