Defender Square Tarp - Waterproof, Durable and Versatile Nylon Tarp Tent Shelter, 10 by 10 ft, True Terrain Camo

Have not used yet, but the quality of construction blew me away. I see no reason why this wont be my last camping tarp I ever buy.

just as good if not better than they say it is

So when I contacted them and explained that this has happened twice to tell them their lifetime warranty was not going to involve them sending me a new tarp every time the wind blew and just wanted a more heavy duty tarp they sell, I was told by a gent that there was no one there that could help me and I should just happy that they even gave me a replacement on my first tarp. SO MUCH FOR THE LIFETIME WARRENTY! So because I think their product is good I have chalked it up to a good product with a very questi The tarp was great. I probably bought the wrong one. Was good until first strong wind. Then it tore. They were good for the replacement with photos. Now I need to say I dont live on a mountain top in Alaska so my winds are probably like your winds. ( Pennsylvania ). Safari Tarp. I paid $100 for tarp. The replacement lasted 1 week when the thin tie down straps (2) tore out. R U KIDDING ME ?? Called them and got the,, there is no one here now BS. Called again and must have been blocked because I got zero response. Believe it or not I just ordered another tarp from them much heavier because I think they have a great product but with out a doubt, they need to give a better description of exactly what their products are capable of before advertising them. And drop the ridiculous life time warranty. You wont cover it and you certainly dont need it to sell your quality tarps. PS, I just received the Defender tarp from Amazon as we speak. This is everything I THOUGHT I was getting when I bought the Safari. Nice tarp guys with strong tie downs!!! You better fire your advertising outfit and better describe what the hell your selling before you sell it. Regards M.Plummer USA

works well

I use this tarp as a secondary shelter when I camp here in the Pacific Northwest. I typically set it up with a ten-foot pole in a plow configuration. You can stake it down very tight and theres virtually no wear on the stake loops. Ive had it partially over my fire several times, and theres not a single hole from a spark on it. Its great for protection from wind, sun, and rain. I only wish it were a little more compact and light. It is certainly more compact and light than a canvas tarp, or even the cheap ones you buy at Walmart, but I was expecting it to be a little lighter.

I tried it out one day in the woods after getting it. It is a super nice tarp! I got the 10x10 but wished now that I had gotten a bigger size, after all size sometimes matters

Best tarp on the planet

This is an excellent tarp for camping and I plan to buy the bigger one ASAP, so worth it and damn sure a great value!

Good waterproof tarp with multiple tie off points

This tarp is lightweight and waterproof. Which were my prerequisites for a tarp. Its big enough for both my wife and I to sleep under with all our gear. We slept under this tarp with a fire right next to it for many weekends. Never had a problem with rain getting through. Or with the fire damaging the tarp as people seem to be concerned about. This is definitely a tarp I would recommend for durability and light weight portability.
