I have a couple of sunncamp ones with the non slip mat on top. They are more stable than you'd think, but I suppose a lot depends on the ground you are sticking it into.

A) This would need to be 840mm high for the average man
B) Would it take the sheer weight?
C) Would you get odd looks from other campers?
D) Has anyone done a risk assesment regarding sunburn?

They don't give you the same level of satisfaction as hammering your table into your pitch.
A good pounding is always good when you get to a site. Insert your pole, a bit of double pegging and then start pounding away.

I had one of these, not from Obelink, and it is no good for hard grounds - the spike bent when I tried to push it into a hard ground, and it got binned.
