How does this hold up in highwinds? I live in an area where we get a lot of breezes pretty much daily .is the wind able to go through this mesh ok?

Have had some crazy winds lately and thunderstorms, been up for 6 months, still in perfect shape.

So far it has been great. In the last couple of weeks we have had some really bad storms here. I thought for sure I was going to come home to find the screen torn or shredded. It has worked great with the highwinds. One suggestion would be to spend the money on good zip ties . I went with some cheaper ones and now I'm replacing them.

I live in the NW- By Seattle,WA. We get high winds mostly spring and fall-winter. So far, My screen fence has withstood the current high winds- Mine is Doubled up for extra privacy- facing West- to East secured on my side of the chain link. Mine billows like a sail and so far handles wind just fine- Single layer Vs wind ? should work fine. Some sunlight will show thru. kinda sparkles in late afternoon sun. Hope this helps- I've only had mine a month + D.Durham

Florida can be very windy and it is holding up well. Yes, the breeze goes through the mesh.

I use it In the coast with very high winds, and a lot of sun and it has worked great. I've had it for 6 months now and it still looks new.

If its properly installed it will stand up to winds very well. We have had winds from light to all day 25mph winds and storms up to 75mph we have had it almost a year no problems.

We found our fence to block the wind effectively, even strong winds, it held up pretty well. I actually have no unfavorable comments, it's done well for the price. We looked at a company doing our privacy fence and got price of 250.00, with the same fence, paid a neighbor to put up for 25 bucks!

Ironically, we have had very high winds with storms over the past two days. No problems with the cover what so ever. Works like a charm.

I have used it in breezy conditions (but not heavy winds) and it held up. However, the canopy is quite large and it catches the wind. It will be hard to manage in heavy winds. It is sturdier than most umbrellas sold today.

It depends. It will withstand up to 30 mph winds. Anything higher and it will blow away. I found that out when I put it up in my backyard. We had sustained wind of 30-35mph and gusts of up to 55 mph. I not only buried those tent spikes but put a couple of bricks to hold the tent down. Didn't help. Other than that, with a little wind, it seems to hold up. Just have to anchor it with some bricks or rocks on the inside. Hope that helps.

Pretty good depending on what type of wind, when its staked down it holds really well. There is also sand bags on each corner to add more weight if needed.

have left it outside all summer in all conditions, tied around two brick posts and one line drilled into a wood board, and have never seen any problem with the wind. however, that is in an area that is protected from wind by a two story building and brick walls, so that may not be a good test. it seems to be quite sturdy material.

I have one I ordered in May 2014 and it has held up to some very gusty winds although we try to close it when it's windy, we sometimes forget. The umbrella has cutouts at the top to allow the breeze to flow through without blowing over as long as it is stabilized at the bottom. Hope this helps!

I live in Florida near the beach and have a lot of wind. I have not screwed the unit down yet but it does make a little noise and move around a little on really windy days. I would say to just try it for a while it may depend on location. the top does a good job letting the wind through.

We have fairly strong winds too, but the mesh was thinner than I expected and ended up doubling up the mesh. This worked for me and as long as you tie it up well it should hold up. It's not very porous so it should hold the dust back, but again, you'll likely have to double it up. I hope this helps.

Mine is under a pergola (which is attached to my deck) and have never had a problem with wind. I actually have 3 shades under there and not a problem all season.

We have been through winds and rain exceeding 50 mph. It did stay up but you need to have better stakes than what comes with the tent. So far we have been in 4 to 5 rain storms with little water in the tent.

No it's pretty much open it works great but under heavy winds I dunno. I've noticed the nature of the fabric really holds stuff in place well... kinda like herb velcro.
