Functions well but with a few simple tweeks could be perfect
The new Shadehouse (large) worked great. Easy to pitch and adjust for optimal headroom. The stakes provided are inadequate so be sure to get your own long and heavy duty stakes (16). The Accessory Wall is a must to continue providing shade as the sun changes its position in the sky and especially during morninigs and late afternoons. That it does great. The problem lies in the flimsy 5 point attachment system ( 3 on the upper curve and 1 at each base corner) that is provided. Because of this meager attachment method the wall does not adhear well to the margins of the Shadehouse and hence you find yourself squinting and changing positions to avoid shafts of sunlight shining through the gaps. Kelty could make the whole thing perfect by simply providing a zipper running the length of the opening where the accesory wall fits in and therby allowing the user to simply zip in the entire wall and avoid any gaps. This would also give the user an easy means to change the wall from side to side for morning vs afternoon sun.
