Works well, needs weight at bottom
Product works well over all, it appears to be a little too heavy and needs a weighted bottom but once we weighted the bottom down, it worked wonderfully to keep the rain from ponding in the boat cover

UPDATED! Much better now that I figured it out
Original review: Just arrived. I was excited because so am replacing a home-made solution to prop up our patio seating area tarp. I wanted something was light weight (aluminum) and telescoping for height adjustment. Saw these adversitied for boat covers, so I assumed the would be durable. Put the together in less than a minute. Went to attach the “mushroom” caps to the top. What a joke! They barely seat into the pole (a half inch), and literally fall off just moving the pole. I could blow one off the pole with a decent puff of air! Instructions say to secure the tops to the base with “straps…not provided”. No thanks! Guess I running out to spend more money on epoxy to secure the tops to the posts. Terrible design!Updated Review: I was originally pretty disappointed with these, mainly because I could not get the mushroom caps to seat deep enough on the post. If you look at my photos, your see that there is about a 1/2” of the post extending from the blue collar. The mushroom cap didn’t seat fully, and would just fall off. I was ticked! When I’m going to say it, but I’m an IDIOT. I didn’t realize that there were 2 telescoping sections on these! I wasn’t initially extending the top section at all! I thought it was a design flaw! It isn’t. Just user-error. I even ran out and got some epoxy glue as I was going to try to glue the caps on there. That’s when I literally just discovered that the top section expands and the mushroom cap not seats fully. It’s not a snug fit, but should be fine. I may still epoxy them on, or simply wrap some electrical tape around the post to make it a bit more snug.Changed my feedback score to 4/5. Much happier now!

No straps
It worked great, but it would have been better if it came with straps.

Great Buy!
We have tried everything to protect our boat. It is the only thing that has held up and durable during high wind and storms. I'd definitely but this!

Boat Tarp holder
The design is common as all other tarp stretchers, but not of as high of quality. The plastic ends and the tubing are both low quality. Don't expect them to last more than 2 seasons.

Doesn't stay expanded, easy fix, good otherwise.
No matter how hard we tightened them (and my husband is quite strong) they would manage to slip back down into themselves after several days or a bad storm. The fix was easy, I extended the pole to where I needed it and then gorilla taped (black tape in photos) the pole right above were it slipped it. We just had a severe storm with insane rain and wind and they held up great.The initial install will take patience and time. Just using paracord tied to the boat failed because we couldn't adjust till they were evenly tight in all directions. Then we used paracord only to attach ratcheting cord on the mushroom top to secure each post to the boat in 4 directions. They are staying nice and secure. Most of the time was spent setting up the cords so reinstalling after using the boat will should only take 10 minutes, but expect the first time to go slow.We also only bought two at first. We have a pontoon boat and found we definitely needed 3. After our last storm we know 4 is going to do the magic and plan to order one more. So if your boat is really long save yourself the trouble and money, just order two 2-packs.

Inexpensive and quality represents that
This is a case of getting what you pay for. I should have bought better. I knew better so it is on me.....

Did not work for me at all
I bought this for my 12 foot aluminum boat. The pole itself is not very stable so when I pull the cover over the pole the pole is easily knocked over and I have to start over. When it rained the pole did nothing. The rain knocked over the pole and water pooled on my boat cover which is exactly what I was trying to prevent with the pole.
