[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect for those sunny days. Once you read all the instructions and get your measurements. It was super easy to install. Took maybe 30 minutes. Easy to use and does what's it is meant for. Absolutely love it!

Keep your outdoor setting spaces shaded and cool1
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coolaroo 8×6’ Outdoor Roller Shade (Mocha) I haven’t installed it yet, but I’m impressed so far. The box was a bit heavy (a good sign!), and the fabric feels strong but breathable. It blocks 90% of UV rays and still lets air and light through—perfect for patios or sunny windows. The crank wand is easy and kid-safe, and i m sure it will cool my outdoor space once i install it with someone! You’ll need a drill, a level, and definitely a seco...

Does exactly what it says
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shade is well thought out and relatively simple to install. It provides great and much needed shade in this fervent Texas heat. This will be well used for years to come!

Easy installation - good material
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a helpful shade which helps to block and reduce the sunlight to my porch. I already had the 4ft shade that was installed on the side of my porch. This 8ft shade will be installed in the front of my patio. Here re the pros of this shade 👍It has well made material 👍easy instruction ( but need 2 people for the installation) 👍affordable price I will update photos for the complete installation. I would recommend it

Great Shade, Weird Handle, Melty Bottom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Coolaroo 8 foot Solar Shade keeps my patio from turning into a Texas BBQ pit, so it works. But the handle… why can’t it just attach to the roller instead of being a runaway part I have to hunt down? And that weighted bottom bar gets so hot in the Texas sun it actually makes the fabric bunch and start to melt. Still, it does its job well enough to earn 4 stars, even if it feels like it’s slowly trying to self-destruct.

Easy to install and operate UV blocking shades
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These roller shades were easy to install for someone who does quite a bit of diy. I love how they look and mocha color matches the tone of the wood on my deck. It’s great that they block 90% of the UV rays so I don’t have to worry about my son playing outside and getting sunburnt. They are also easy to operate with the wand. I’d highly recommend getting these to add some style, comfort, and enjoyment to your outdoor area.

Great shade, good quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a patio that faces west and afternoon sun is a killer! Once hung up this shade is great! Love the dark brown it keeps our patio much cooler. Installation wasn’t the easiest. You do need 2 people and I recommend getting the first bracket where you want it and then put the shade up and place the other bracket and mark the holes other wise it was hard to get it perfect to get good engagement. If I get anymore I will be having my handyman ...

Love
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay I really like this roller shade. It definitely helps keep cool in the summer and it’s the perfect addition to the patio. Of course you need someone to help install it so that’s the only thing but other than that it is easy to operate with the wand.

Incredible Outdoor Shade
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was previously using a shade that wasn't quite big enough to cover my entire window, but this does the job. After installing it outside my dining room window, the light coming through got noticeably darker and it really helped keep that room cooler. The wand to roll it up is also super convenient for when it cools down and I want more light and heat to get inside. Overall, an amazing product that looks and works great.

Such a great product!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this shading! The color brown was amazing! The installation for my husband was super easy and it blocks so much sunlight from our window. The design is great and very easy to operate and bring it up and down when needed! Highly recommend it!

Love it! So Easy to Install
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Coolaroo Outdoor Roller Shade! Installing it was a breeze—honestly, it was as easy as hanging a window curtain. Everything was included: the hardware, clear instructions, and zero stress. In fact, my 72-year-old mother installed it all by herself! The hardest part was just getting it out of the tightly sealed shipping tube. (We ended up hammering it open) Once that was done, it went up quickly and looks fantastic. Highly re...

Blocks the Sun well!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to try this! We have a little porch off of our main bedroom and the perfect little chair to relax in, but the morning sun hits it hard. The hardest part was unboxing it. I did need help for a bit installing, but so far I love it!

Love the shade!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this to shade off my Florida room when the sun is just too much! Sometimes my plants and I want a break and my room has no shade or blinds. This was perfect to cover the whole wall for me to lower when the sun hits it at that angle that needs shading! This was perfect!

WONDERFUL & much needed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in order for me to test it out and see how well it worked or how well it didn’t work in return for me to give a review. So this is my review of the sunshade product just please do not harass the installation, person I had to skip on the picture this time, because my hanging up skills was not at par. I will have to wait till my husband or brother gets home from offshore work in order to help me install it or it don’t c...
