    • Great tarp. Great customer service.
Color: Green Kit Size: 10 x 10 ft
This tarp is amazing. It will withstand a LOT. I had mine out throughout the winter to block some wind and trap in some of my heat while smoking (I know I know, I need to quit.) It stood up to a lot. I experienced zero leaks. The tie offs are all extremely well sewn and made to stand up to a LOT. Unfortunately there must have been a pin hole where the sewing machine missed the seam, along the seam line. My tarp developed a tear right where that pinhole must have been, along the seam. I feared I would have issues with the 2 year warranty against defects. I have had such issues with other companies before who have similar warranties. First of all, I had a response from the company within the day I sent my email. After a very simple confirmation of defect process that was taking a picture to show the damage, they sent me a new tarp, which arrived already. The turn around time was less than a week from contact, to having a new tarp in my hands. I couldn't ask for a better experience with a tarp or with a company's customer service experience. Aqua quest stands behind their products and they are absolutely worth the money. I will not hesitate to continue to purchase their products. ... show more

Light, durable, easy to roll up, compact. So much easier for one person to spread out than normal poly tarp. I set it up in back yard to test it out as an extended rainfly over a 14x10 cabin tent. Worked great. It extends out farther over the sides and covers an extended "front porch" over the entryway. It stayed in place during 20mph winds with stronger gusts. It withstood the sprinkler test, no leaks. It's expensive but worth it if you camp in the rain. I'm considering a second one to replace the poly tarp I use over the kitchen/picnic table area. ... show more

    • Fantastic Product!!
Color: Forester Green Size: 20 x 13 ft
I bought this tarp for a backyard party when Mother Nature threatened (& delivered!!) a rainy forecast. The tarp arrived on time and was neatly packaged in a stuff sack about the size of a pair of men's shoes. I am a former Outward Bound Instructor so I know a good outdoor product when I see one and this tarp met and exceeded my expectations! It is super lightweight, so despite its size, it was easy for me to put up by myself. And despite the light-weight fabric, it didn't let a drop of rain come through, even though some rain pooled in one area overnight. I used lightweight ropes, secured them using the multiple tie out loops. The prolific tie-outs made it easy to secure the tarp to various anchor spots around our patio. I used a combination of easy half-hitches, bowlines and trucker hitches. We were totally dry and everyone in attendance was really impressed by this product. It worked out perfectly and gave us the use of our lovely patio in the rain. I thought this product was a little expensive, and you can certainly find cheaper tarps, but this one is light-weight enough to take backpacking and use on the trail. I would definitely buy this again, & just might buy a second one!! ... show more

    • Can make or break a camping trip.
Color: Green Kit Size: 10 x 10 ft
On a overnight hike in Tennessee in April, had expected rain to taper off, had expected temperatures in the 40's. Well it didn't turn out as planned. On the 5 mile hike into the campsite we had snow and sleet. We were sure to have wet wood at the site and just nasty conditions. We quickly strung up this tarp at the site put a couple of chairs under it and started a small fire on a flat rock under the tarp. Once the fire got going we picked up the rock and moved it a few feet away, by then it didn't matter how wet the wood was. If we didn't have this tarp the trip would have been a total loss, we would have been in our tents trying desperately to stay warm. You could make do with a $15 tarp from your local hardware store, but you wouldn't get as much use out of it. This tarp is light, it is thin, but incredibly durable, the tie out points are sturdy and the placement of them give you a multitude of options for configurations. My tarp saved the trip...all there is to it. ... show more
