The description says "It features a built-in sidewall that protects from the sun and wind." However, the reviewers are saying it didn't.Which is it?

If you look at the picture the back wall...not side-wall...protects from the sun and wind with the exception of the lower part (in green) this is a mesh where wind comes thru. I love my light speed. If I need more wind protection it is sturdy enough to hang wet towels on with no problem...dries towel and protects at the same time.

It's been a year since I used it at the beach, but my memory is that it was exactly as described. And it was very easy to put up and take down.

It has a sidewall meaning one side. You just figure out sun path and pitch it accordingly. 270 degrees are open view. You don't want to be in a tent anyways. We love it.

I am not 100% sure if it does but it should be and I have used it only for a strong wind not sun.

It does not come with side walls but there is velcro sewn to the inside surface of the canopy which I presume is there to attach side walls.

Yeah basically. It's a mesh tarp that blocks the wind and the sun a little. I live in a very windy area and it works well but it's a tarp about 30 ft Long and 5 ft high and it's secured with zip ties. Its does not have the top cover which I think is misleading. I bought a tarp made of the same material for the top and it works well for wind, sun, and rain. Cheaper at Lowe's since its just a tarp

I bought one...no Velcro or anything securing the corners. We have had 35 mile winds today and it has stayed. So far!!

It can block some part of the sun but not totally ... However it's a great stroller I have owned ...it's easy to use ; love it !

I feel that it does block the wind, but I used this in as a privacy fence for my pool screen enclosure, so I actually have it layered as pool screen, privacy fence and then lattice on the backside as well. I can say that there is still wind passing through so the air in my pool area is not stagnant, but I haven't felt like a major gust of wind or seen any rips. I absolutely love this and my boyfriend agreed once it was hanging. Excellent for the price and we did it ourselves. You can definitely see threw it as well. I hope that helps!

This is not the tent or canopy at all, this product is JUST the sun wall that attaches to a tent/canopy you must already own. It is to add sides to a tent you own.

It would block out some sun but not all, I wouldn't use it that way. It isn't made to anchor in the ground either.

Yes. It does not have any side closures/panels. You have to build or already have a surround for it.

Yes, just the one side. You can buy additional sides to enclose against weather.

I bought this product to protect the roof of my camper. I painted the roof of the camper to add protection against any leakages. It adds a "rubberized" protection. I painted it in the Fall of 2013, and then covered it with a canvas for the winter months. I am not sure it will prevent the sun's damaging effects.

It has Velcro attachments that connect over the crossbar. I purchased it more as a wind block but if it rained I believe the rain could get in from the gaps in the connections to the crossbar. Although this served my need I'm considering a model that comes with removable sides.

I think It does. Mine are not exposed directly to the sun and yet the room is not dark. Other reviewers say that in a window facing south, It blocks heat and sun

No in my review, that was my one main complaint. It did not include the curtains. I was hoping by complaining that they might add them but it would most likely increase the price as well bringing it up to the cost of the full price of the gazebo when we bought it at big lots. This year they changed the shape so I'm expecting them to no longer carry this version next summer. If that happens , and my cover again needs replacing I intend to purchase the new design and move the old frame to the yard and grow vines on it and place my fire pit in the center. Lol

It is covered, however, the mesh-sides can allow rain to get in. I haven't used it during the rain.
