What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this tarp for its affordability and versatility, noting it performs well for light to moderate outdoor tasks like covering furniture, protecting vehicles, shielding garden beds, and temporary roof repairs. Many report it holds up under typical conditions and would repurchase. However, several mention material degradation under prolonged sun exposure and wind, with weak grommets that tear easily under stress. Despite durability limitations for long-term use, most customers consider it excellent value for casual, short-term applications and disposable seasonal needs.

Tarp

Would Recommend

The wife and I have been living in the in-laws basement since the eviction, until last week, When they threw me out. I purchased this tarp for cover in the park and it has been great. I would highly recommend this tarp. In fact three of us (Joe, Jessi, and myself) huddle up beneath It every night, and remain dry. If you live in the Chicago area you know it’s been quite wet lately. Anyways if you need a tarp this is it, strong ,durable, with a homey feel.

Disappointing, Tears Easily at The Grommets

Would Not Recommend

Bought this tarp to cover my roof after some hurricane damage until I could get the roof replaced. I nailed it snugly to the roof using roofing nails with plastic washers. After about a week, I checked on it and the tarp was torn at the grommets, as a result of the tension, in multiple places. This is unacceptab;e for a any tarp. There were no high winds during this time and I had place 4x4s and 2x4s on the in side of edges. Tarps from Harbor Freight are better quality.

Keep replacing

Would Not Recommend

Depends what your use is for! Short term: Great, it will last you the 3-6 months depending on conditions. Long term (which I use it for): Bad. We replace this tarp a few times 1-2 times per year to cover up some storage. The plastic degrades in the sun (that's why in the short term I said depending on conditions) and holes/tears will easily begin to happen with the combination of the sun and winds. The metal rings are nice until the plastic gives away, and then whatever you used those rings f...

Excellent!

Would Recommend

This is the second one I've purchased for a leaky roof that has become shaped like a bowl, so water just sits in the middle. The roof section is 25x30, so I can fold it in half and get two later coverage that lasts for 9 months. Other tarps don't last nearly that long, in the blazing sun, which hits it all day. At the price I paid, it is well-worth the price, for the protection it provides. I use it with the blue side facing the sun. After trying so many different tarps, I highly recommend t...

Think twice

Would Not Recommend

In less than 24 hours 3 grommets have ripped from the tarp. If you’re looking for an extended use tarp, Like more than a few days, look elsewhere.

Price and item not honored

Would Not Recommend

I bought online and it said it was available for a clearance price then an associate called me and told me it’s not available anymore but it is still offered online for sale so they didn’t want to honor the item for the price

Pretty darn good tarp

Would Recommend

Picked this up to cover my load. Strapped it down for a one time use as I figured it wouldn’t last. Drove 50 miles and went and took it off with all the eyelets intact and the tarp was like new.
