Tarp Poles Heavy Duty Adjustable, AVOFOREST Aviation Aluminum 8.7FT Tent Poles Lengthen and Thicken with Protection Cap Awning Poles Set of 2 for Hiking

Works as intended. Nice quality--locking mechanism prevents poles from slipping back down. All in all a nice product

Very sturdy and strong. If you know how to string it, this will stand the wind without knocking out. Very easy to extend and shorten the length of the pole and not too heavy to carry around. It fits under the 2nd row seats so takes no space at all in my Tesla Model X. Great price for this

The setup is nicely put together with everything you need poles, stakes, guy wires. The post at the top is plenty long and the silicone tips are large enough to protect a tarp when used to prop it up.

Poles are good held up pretty well but lost the rubber piece instantly because it was not secured enough to the base of the pole and I should have checked so partly my fault. the length is awesome and weight is super light weight but for amount of money spent on this wish the piece would have held bette. could use a longer tie down rope but super easy to use in terms of the functionality. the coverage in height is awesome

Works as advertised. Haven’t noticed any issue with the polls locking too tightly. They’re very easy to use straightforward design.As others mentioned in the reviews, the silicone chest pond caps do come slightly deformed. But, only around the skirt on mine. They were already attached to the steel pin on each pole. Rubber caps are straight upright other than the base area of each cap.If that bothers anyone, I’m sure you could heat up some water on the stove top and just place the base of the cap inside of it, and then mold it back to the correct shape.Someone else mentioned their order didn’t come with the stakes and guy lines. Mine did. Was happy about that. Had already resigned myself to the fact they might only be included when you buy the larger set of four poles.Happy with condition of what was received. Well packaged double boxed. Everything wrapped up well in plastic bags. It’s exactly what I was hoping for.If I was backpacking, I might take a single pole. Use it somewhat like a walking stick. Then use it for setting up poncho shelter, or similar.Mainly would recommend set for car camping. Or in the winter time if you have sled to pull your gear or ATV. These aren’t overly heavy or extremely long, but when you start adding all the gear together, it gets a bit heavy.Also the carry bag is a decent quality. Has a nice barrel lock for cinching the bag shut can hold all the contents including the cordage and stakes. Has two rope cords that come off of the carry bag. So, if you were so inclined could wear it like a backpack.The steel tent stakes are different than any. I have presently with my tents. Look like they should be great for tough clay soil and maybe even in the winter for icy ground.

Nice sturdy poles....comes with anchors and ropes which was a plus for me.

Forget those tent poles you get with any tarp. Buy these with it. Easy to use and sturdy ! Love them. Great company !

Trash don't buy if you want them to be reliable. The friction stops are super cheap and the sleeve will pop out of inside of pole making them pretty much junk. If you have too much tension like a tarp and stakes the poles definitely bend. One use failure.
