Very good actually
84W (100W panel) on a sunny day with tiny cloud in the sky is not too bad.The angle against the sun's position seems to be very important.Good build quality, decent size, nice variation on cables.

Great addition to my camping gear!! ☀️🇬🇧
Great solar panel! Charging early morning like 9am and took solar energy very efficiently 58w constant. Easy to carry and not crazy heavy, fits standing in the boot of a car nicely against the back seats so saves space. I am using it to charge power station c300 which last me for a whole weekend out. No usb to connect phones directly which it's a down but I ordered a usb adaptor to have an extra . Came well packed. Would I recommend it? YES if you love gadget and want to have peace of mind while on the road or camping.

Heavier than expected
Seems good product but a little heavier than expected and doesn’t fold completely flat , otherwise good solid kit but not as compact for backpacking as some others .

Efficient panel. Would buy another.
Very impressed. I bought the 100W model previous to this and while that one is also good, when comparing power output I found that on sunny days this gave out approximately ~10 Watts more than the previous panel and even on bright-but-overcast days this panel can still output 10-15 Watts.

There are 3 support legs (some have said only 2)
The media could not be loaded. The instruction booklet isn’t brilliant for letting you know there are in fact 3 support legs. The pouch with “ANKER” embroidered on it is also a sturdy support when you pull it out! See my photos. You can make this out in the booklet about using the product. When I tested the product in the evening sun I saw 55W of input power to my Anker power station 535 model. Today it’s cloudy and my iPad is charging but no power input showing on the power station, I’m not surprised though. The product looks and feels well made. I like the simple device for lining up with the sun, blue dot shadow into the red circle, neat and simple.

Very useful for camping
Highly recommend this bit of kit for anyone going camping or hiking somewhere without access to power. I used this whilst camping in the Canterbury area, it charged my powerbank without any issues. It can take a little while to get used to it and get it into optimal position, but a good indicator is looking at the colour of the panels, when it is working its best, the panels will look more blue.Very lightweight and portable, fit nicely into bike panniers for easy transportation.

Did anker actually try to use this?
Multiple issues, I bought this before I knew the Jackery solarsaga 100w would work with the Anker 521.1) Anker has 2 legs on outside panels nothing for middle 2 so they just collapse and fold in on themselves, now it is possible to balance it but its fiddly and not very stable at all takes 3x as long as the Jackery to set up. (Edit: there is actually a third leg it's under the cable pocket this does help with the stability however its still very unwieldy to set up on your own compared to two panel options from the competition)2) The pocket for the connections is made of mesh, now I know neither this nor the Jackery is waterproof but mesh? Come on any slight quick shower of rain is 100% getting in. The Jackery is a zip up picket with a plastic liner so I fully expect if it got left out in a bit of rain would have a much better chance of surviving which for something that is used outside there is a chance of this happening.Anker normally makes high quality kit and their powerstations are much better than Jackery but this panel is such a let down within 5 minutes of it being out the box trying to set up I knew this was going back. Who ever designed this needs to actually go outside and try it for themselves.

100W never achievable, difficult to stand up without assistance
Having bought 2 of these recently (one for me, one for a colleague) we've given them a good roadtest.Our conclusions are:The 'Good'- Really good portability.- well made.- integrate well into the Anker Power Station we each have- reasonable for the money.The downside- don't get any ideas that this will get anywhere near 100W. That's a notional number and you'll be lucky to get near 50W on a really good day (and you'll need to keep moving them every 20 mins to keep that figure up)- If you want to daisychain more than one you'll need to jump through a lot of hoops to get a '£25 cable' from Anker. (I found the cable on EBay for £3 delivered by the way!)- They are almost impossible to get to stand up unassisted (they have two weak flaps at the back of each end, which is not capable of propping the panel up 'straight' - it has a massive bow in it which I end up putting the power station behind to help it remain upright). Any slight breeze and it's going to blow over.- "Anker's proprietary Suncast technology' - please... it's a piece of plastic with a spot on it casting a shadow. Anyone would think they invented the shadow for goodness sake...Overall, it's a reasonable solution for the price point. Anker products carry a good brand name with them, but customer service is lacking. So pray it works 'out of the box'.
