My has on several occasions. I have it stretched pretty tight, and learned a special knot (a taut-line hitch) that really does the trick -- it allows you to adjust the tension, but will not pull loose, even under high winds and rain.I have noticed the sail sags some when it's really wet - I've learned NOT to tighten it then, it'll straighten back up when it dries out.

We've had monsoons this summer in AZ with very strong dust storms and rain. The sun sail had held up great, it has a little slack in the line that needs tightening but that's from the line used to string it up, not the tarp itself.

We haven't had winds that strong since I installed it but I think it will hold up if installed properly. The anchors seem very well made to me. Hope that helps.

Absolutely. The shade can handle a lot! Just make sure you secure it properly. I replaced the rope once with sturdier stuff and I used a "trucker hitch" to get a taut shade.If I am home, I take it down during bad weather. Only takes a few minutes to take down and put back up. Easy to readjust if you're using the rope on at least one side.

It will right about 25mph, however, it really depends on rider's weight and road condition.

it's ok in light winds, but your need a wind break for higher wind condition.

I have been in 2 thunderstorms with some winds and it has held up. I used the 4 corner stakes, 4 rope tie stakes provided which are attached, and I use an extra top tarp over the back of my truck where I sleep anchored with bungee cords to my roof rack and then anchored to front of Coleman Screen room with bungees for extra water protection. Without proper securing I'm sure it would fly in the wind as it is very light weight. I love this product but for camping long term and to endure all weather conditions which may arise I do secure it very well.

It tends to get windy here as long as you have it anchored down with all the doors and windows closed you should be fine. We had wind gusts over 40 mph with no issues.

I enjoy this in 5-7 mph winds. great response to input and I think it handles better than my mjx .

I have 2 of these blinds, when the wind gets up over 20 mph it will shake around. it will blow away if you don;t keep some weight in it.They work very well.

I've only set it up once and it never experienced what I would call strong winds. It did perform admirably in the light breeze that night after I tied it down with the included rope and stakes.

Just roll it up and it should be fine. I am in Imperial county CA. We also get strong winds.

I would say that's correct. Plenty heavy. We had a 70 mph wind this week and no issue.

With those winds, at the very least the frame will distort and deform. Mine is staked down and located in an area sheltered by trees and a deer fence, and when I leave the door up, any significant wind pushes the frame out of shape. It does better when the door is down, but I wouldn't think of using one in 65 mph winds. I'm beginning to believe the disclaimer printed in the instructions that these are for temporary use, meaning a couple of years at best.

I usually don't use it with a wind over 15mph...but I just read that owners are using bungee cords to stabilize the reflectors and am going to try it, but am looking for a picture of a sun oven fixed with bungee cords. That would help an awful lot, as we have had a lot of wind this summer.

I used it three times last summer, and on one camping trip the winds were going about 20 mph. I had it staked tight to the ground, and had no problems. It moved a little in the wind but had no issues of anything ripping.

So far it has with stood the winds we have in Fl. If we suspect sustained winds of more than 40 mph we would take it down.

It has several tie down cords for the corners and grounding stakes. I have had mine in 20-30 mph wind gust with no real problems.

No they are not., but with the front and back cross tied the shelter can handle 15mph winds.
