Guy rope free windbreak recommendations?

My trusty windbreak of many years (and many repairs) has finally reached the point of no return! I'm looking for something that doesn't need guy ropes, I've been there in the past and found them to be too much faffing about.
I like the look of the Jormax ones but they are a bit pricey 😳

Guys ropes on windbreaks are a nightmare aren't they?
Although it's not completely guy rope free the Isabella flex windbreak is good.
Strong steel pins into ground. Then the vertical ali poles slide over them. The end panels are threaded onto the poles and horizontal ali poles thread through the tops of the panels between each vertical. Extra panels can be zipped into the windbreak.

In the pic we tried to match the windbreak legs with the Caravanstore legs for extra strength and stability.

Isabelle's good with the spikes if the ground is hard, soft ground and it goes over like the rest !! even with guy ropes.

Thanks for the replies. Think I may have found the same as my old one for £25 online

Hello, can you let me know what you found. I am looking for a windbreak and have decided to go down the more traditional route.

Thanks.

Unfortunately my excitement was short lived, it wasn't what I was after.
In the end I've just bought 6 'blue diamond' poles which at 20mm diameter will hopefully replace the knackered ones on my old windbreak. Cost blooming £33 though for just the poles but should see me through another couple of seasons.

We have a blue diamond seven panel windbreak bought some years ago with the hardwood poles/metal spike ends and metal ring tops so you can give it a good bash with lump hammer.

I am thinking of getting some of these which seem a good alternative to guy lines

I was going to get a windbreak from those guys but 4 weeks before they could deliver as they are so busy, even just for the poles.
Seemed like decent quality though
