Expensive

I was disappointed in having to purchase this to correct an engineering deficiency. It would have been nice for these to have been offered at a discounted price to long time customers. I will recommend that Shibumi reconsider their design to include a second "pole" for the back side.

Terrible With Wind Assist

Using wind assist currently at obx. It does not work. Wind is 5mph, very tiny breeze so shibumi doesn't work on its own. I attached wind assist and it just makes the shibumi pull flat, the middle of the shade falls on your head. Really disappointed in my purchase. I need to go run and purchase umbrellas unfortunately

Wind Assist

This helps but need something in the middle when no wind,

So Easy

Easiest thing ever to put up and take down. We’re in our 70s so we need easy! Told my sons it’s 100% better than a canopy or a Neso, both of which we have at our Matagorda Texas beach house.

No One Said They Come With Already. A Waist Of A Purchase

Would be helpful of you advertised them as a replacement set. Very misleading.

Awesome! Life Is Good With Wind Assist.

This is my fourth year with the classic Shibumi. The Wind Assist is a game changer. Easy to setup and take down.The wind assist is a option you thought you never needed, I was so wrong. First thing you notice is the extended shade. Second it cuts down on the flapping that creates noise, this is eliminated with the wind assist. The small pack to hold the wind assist is a nice feature. In the next upgrade would be nice to have velcro closures.Just my engineering mind working overtime on the beach. Great job guys and ladies.

Shibumi Wind Assist

Came in handy a couple of weeks ago at St. Simons Island when there were several times there was no breeze at all. I remembered this happening last year so I bought it in Brunswick on the way in. Great purchase

Love This Addition To Our Shibumi Shade

This recent purchase is actually our second as somehow our first got misplaced. We felt it imparative to have the wind assist as in years past it was greatly needed. Fortunately this year we didn't need it given we were dealing with 25mph winds for the entire week at the beach. We will simply set it aside for next year as we've needed it in the past.

Beach Fun

We used these on our shibumi at the beach for a week and they worked great. Helped keep the wind sound away. Instead of just flapping in the wind

Didn’t Help

First and foremost, I absolutely love the shibumi shade. It has been one of the greatest purchases I have ever made. As a family that spends 3-4 weeks at the beach each year in Florida. It has been a life saver. The only problem we ever had was when the wind is non existent. It doesn’t happen often but it is disappointing when there is no wind. So I purchased the wind assist with the idea it would help with little to no wind and found they didn’t preform well at all. They didn’t seem to help keep the shade up and would constantly move with the littlest wind causing the shade to work less. I may end up asking for a refund as they were not helpful at all. But this is in no way indicative of this brand or the shade. I still love our shade and would highly recommend it to everyone. Just not the wind assists.

Excellent Tool If There’s No Wind

These were easy to install and quick to help in a time of no wind on the beach. Highly recommend this little trick.

Using Shibumi On The Beach

I really like the convenience and the amount of shade my shibumi provides. I would let people know that they are being banned from some beaches because of how much room they take up. I know specifically they are banned from beaches on LBI NJ from Memorial day to Labor Day. I’m sure other beaches are doing it too. Check your beach rules!! They are expensive!

Thank Goodness

When there is no breeze at the beach or if it’s super windy. These two assists save the day. Bringing much needed shade.

Wind Assist

We used the wind assist one time on our trip to the beach this year and it was a huge help! However, our Shibumi shade is torn in a corner which we did not think was possible! This happened before and it was replaced. I hope this will be addressed. Thanks!
