they are very good, as long as it's not too windy. They also need to be tied off to something, there is only a pole at one end.

Unless you make some Guy ropes up.

it comes with guy ropes at both ends, but it will always tend to the ground on the unsupported end,.. it is designed to hang over the tent, as in the
picture on the link and act as a porch,.. I got a second set of poles, and made another hoop, means it's a bit more stable, and less
restrictive,..
Good for cooking under too.

I had an old two man nylon tent that I was going to throw away so I took the rain fly and I keep it rolled up in the boot. When it looks like rain I
pull it out and drape it over the windscreen and roll bar. It has elastic cord on six sides and I hook those around areas that stick out on my car.
