The pole is anchored to the ground and the top end bends over the tree allowing the netting to be draped around. A cord is attached to the zip access which can be pulled to close up the netting and a drawstring around the base allows the bottom of the netting to be closed and drawn in towards the pole.

popadome By Anonymous12345

21st April 2022

A good concept but practical application not well thought out. If erected according to instructions (with pole against tree trunk, buds will grow through the net, thereby defeating the purpose(and possibly losing buds as the whole thing sways in the wind.) I solved the problem (I hope) by attaching the pole to a stake several feet from the tree. Suggestion that it can be erected in minutes a bit over optimistic and would probably benefit from the attention of two (3?) people to avoid snagging on developing buds.

Dubious By Laurence Howe12345

Harrod products are generally very good, but this item is a bit micky Mouse. I had originally planned to build a cage around our cherry tree, but this looked like a convenient solution. However, it is difficult to errect without damaging a lot of buds and it sways around wildly in the wind. I had to use about a dozen tent pegs to spread out the base. Next year, I will build the planned cage.

Like it: Just bought my second By Andrew Jankowicz12345

9th May 2021

After 8 years use, the ring-pull at the top of the zip broke. I made a working repair with Bondic (that wonderful non-glue adhesive which uses an ultra-violet curing system) and put some of the silicone-based gunk I use for my bicycle to lubricate the zip. It worked like a dream: my cherry tree, 2.75 metres tall might I add, protected for the 9th year from those d****d birds; a fresh batch of cherry liqueur assured this September! BUT THEN I noticed a 3-foot long split in the netting, right at the top. Too lazy to disassemble and fix it by weaving it together, I've just ordered a new Popadome. I don't mind too much, 8 years' weathering before the netting degrades feels reasonable enough. And overall a brilliant product: great design! I'm 74 and I can manage to assemble and disassemble it single-handed, Thank you Harrod!
