FREE SOLDIER 150T ripstop tarp, 10 × 10 ft review
A 3 × 3 m (10 × 10 ft) tarp with a coating figure, sealed seams, webbing at every load point and a stated 1 kg (2.2 lb) — and no count for the load points it reinforces.
A maroon tarp stated at 300 × 300 cm (118.1 × 118.1 in) in 150T ripstop polyester with a 3000 PU coating and waterproof treatment at the seams, with every load point reinforced by multiply-stitched nylon webbing, a stated weight of 1 kg (2.2 lb), and a pack listing one tarp, one storage bag, one pouch, four ropes and four pegs.
Three things that keep rain out
The hub intro is clear that a coating figure alone is only part of the answer. This listing gives a coating figure, sealed seams and a named weave, which is the fullest waterproofing description here after the Unigear.
The one caveat: the figure is written as 3000 PU, with no unit. Elsewhere in this hub the same class of number is written PU 3000 mm (118.1 in). This page reports what the maker wrote.
The tie-outs, described but not counted
Multiply-stitched nylon webbing at every load point, with the maker stating that the load is spread evenly across the strap. That is a real reinforcement description, and it is the best in the hub. What is missing is the number of load points, which is the figure the hub asks for.
The pack
Tarp, storage bag, pouch, four ropes, four pegs. Four pegs on a square is the corners, and no more.
Before ordering
1 kg (2.2 lb) is published and unlabelled. The ropes and pegs are in the same box, and the listing does not say whether they are in the same number.
Availability
The American Amazon catalog lists it with no seller standing behind the entry.

What it does well, and where it gives way
Strengths
Publishes a coating figure and states that the seams are waterproof-treated, which is two thirds of what keeps rain out
Describes tie-out reinforcement properly: multiply-stitched nylon webbing at every load point
Lists the pack contents item by item — tarp, bag, pouch, four ropes, four pegs
Compromises
The 3000 figure is published without a unit, so it is a coating grade rather than a stated millimeter rating
No tie-out count, on a listing whose main durability claim is about the tie-outs
Four ropes and four pegs for a 3 × 3 m (10 × 10 ft) square is the corners only, with nothing spare for a mid-panel pitch

What people ask before buying
Is 3000 PU the same as PU 3000 mm (118.1 in)?
The maker writes it without a unit, so this page reports it that way. Other listings in this hub write PU 3000 mm (118.1 in) and PU5000MM, and the convention across the category is millimeters of water column. Reporting the figure as published rather than filling in the unit is the difference between quoting a maker and speaking for one.
Are four pegs enough for a 3 × 3 m (10 × 10 ft) tarp?
They cover four corners. The hub intro treats tie-outs as the thing that gives a tarp its range of pitches, and a square with only its corners pegged has fewer of them available. Extra line and pegs are a small, separate purchase.
Does FREE SOLDIER publish a denier?
No. Not published on the listing — 150T is a thread count and no denier figure is published. What the listing does publish instead is the tie-out reinforcement: Every load point reinforced with multiply-stitched nylon webbing, stated to spread the load evenly across the strap.
Our score
7.8/ 10
The tarp that describes its seams and its load points properly, then declines to say how many load points there are.
The buyer this one serves, among camping gear
A square tarp bought complete, where sealed seams and reinforced load points matter more than pack weight.
Specifications: the manufacturer sheet for camping and hiking gear and the matching Amazon product page. Prices and availability: Keepa. Every figure on this page names its source.
Hammock tarp · 3.40 × 2.80 m (11 × 9 ft) · title says ripstop nylon, description says 210T polyester · 0.8 kg (1.8 lb) in the title, 650 g (22.9 oz) in the text · 25 × 10 cm (9.8 × 3.9 in) packed · bag only
A hammock tarp that contradicts itself twice on the same page — nylon or polyester, 0.8 kg (1.8 lb) or 650 g (22.9 oz) — while publishing the smallest packed size in this hub.
Best for: A hammock that needs a roof, where the packed size is the constraint and the contradictions are read first.
Camping tarp · 3 × 3 m (10 × 10 ft) · ripstop polyester, no coating named · 1.94 kg (4.3 lb) stated · 65 × 7 × 7 cm (25.6 × 2.8 × 2.8 in) packed · guylines and two poles supplied
A 3 × 3 m (10 × 10 ft) tarp that arrives with its own two poles and a stated 1.94 kg (4.3 lb) — and names no coating, no denier and no tie-out count at all.
Best for: A pitch on open ground — a beach, a pitch beside a vehicle — where poles matter more than pack weight.
