This product looks good in place and performs well, giving good shade but passing some sunlight. But, and it is a killer "but", the first indication of trouble was cracking of the butterfly ties. I wondered if bending the ties to close them in cool weather caused some sort of stress. I called the company and they sent me replacements. I put the replacements in hot water to soften them before bending, but several of the new ones failed in a few months.
The fabric has become brittle after only nine months; you can tear it with your hands or poke a hole with your finger. It is tearing at some of the attachment clips (installed every 12" per the instructions). I sent in a warranty claim and we shall see what happens.
The annoyance factor here though is the short life and the hassle of having to replace a 40' cover. I will try another brand.
Update: Easy Gardener has honored the warranty and is refunding my purchase price. The process involved sending the sales ticket and a sample of the material. Their web site says it takes several weeks and it did.
