“Seems like a good canopy. It was missing a couple pieces, but customer support is great and resolved the issue. Tarp is bomber, and frame seems sturdy. Assembly was reasonable with one person, but would have been significantly easier with two people. As far as design improvements, It would be great if the tarp included flaps that extended over the edges of the side-bars so the drip-line was outside the frame. Also, some fiberglass rods arched underneath the tarp to support it between the arched poles would do wonders to prevent puddling. It would be really easy to thread the poles through the grommets on either side of the tarp to hold them in place. As a person who does product design, I understand that there are always trade-offs between features/quality and price. Could the design be improved? Certainly, but for the price, I think it's a great value.”

“I ordered 2 of these canopies and had them erected on my 12x32 foot deck four years ago. They were heavily anchored on to the deck. I had wires running down each leg frame from the top to the bottom and screwed into the deck in case of high winds. It's worked beautifully for four years. I take the cover off during winter and put them back on in the early spring. This year was the first year that I noticed rain seeping through the cover. I will replace the covers next year. I think four years from these covers are pretty good. I will order the replacement cover on the top early next spring from Shelter Logic as they sell out early in the spring, as I found out this year!”
“Use 8' landscape timbers sunk 2' down with quickcrete, attach uprites with c- clamps, the frame will never blow away, remove tarps during hurricanes & frame will remain & next day you are back in shelter !! also using 2 tarps per unit increases service life substantially.”
“I have had 2 of them over for over a year.
I have had several folks stop in the street and ask where did I get them. I had one the other day ask where I got it.
I just wish that you would re-stock just the tarp.”

“Bought may 2021 so 1 month of use. Out of the box assembly is straight forward, A few of the canopy bars had flash on male ends that prohibited assembly-a file knocked this down, also as end drills of pipes are to be kept in alignment, but are hard to rotate after assembly, squirt some wd-40 on them before assembly. Anchor system would not stand up to the winds here so I cut 1"x16" pipe drilled hole into gravel and hammered to final height. All joints should be drilled and bolted-if not wind may lift the canopy. Also purchased 1" flat bungee to place over top of canopy to help w/ballooning effect.”
