Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I am extremely active on Amazon. I go on this site before I buy anything and read customer reviews, especially when it comes to my 3 month old daughter. I did not take her to the beach all summer as I was worried about sunburn and other things. I really tried to listen to our doctor. And we live at the Jersey Shore! But this past weekend my husband's family was visiting Long Beach Island from Colorado and Maryland and we knew that we needed to take Madison (our daughter) to the beach for the first time. I searched and searched for the perfect tent to bring with us. I found one that I wanted to buy, unfortunately no store sold it. I could only get it on Amazon. Before buying it, I chatted with a friend who said she would never buy a tent as they get hot. In considering her advice I started to look for an umbrella. I came across the Sport-Brella and could not be happier. First of all, I bought it at Home Depot for $40. When we went down to the beach the wind was crazy. All of us thought, "There is no way this umbrella is going to hold up." The other umbrellas on the beach were flying by us while we were setting it up. We put all of the stakes in and pushed a little bit of sand on the sides. For hours, this umbrella did not move. Not at all. I can honestly say we were shocked and impressed. We opened the windows so a little of the breeze came inside. Other than that, if you stepped under the umbrella there was no wind inside at all. We set up my daughter's bouncer and a towel for her to lie on. She loved it. No wind, no sunburn. We got the smaller version of the tent because I did not want something that could only fit in my SUV. It was the perfect size. With Madison's stuff, I could still fit in there with a chair and room to spare. I felt that it also offered privacy as I did nurse her at one point underneath it. This product was so great that we plan to purchase another one at Home Depot before the season ends. I cannot rave enough about it!
