COOSHADE Pop up Canopy, 12X12 Pop up Tent with Mesh Walls, 6 Sides Gazebo, Patented 1 Step Lock Tech, Screened House for Outdoor/Camping/Lawn/Trip/Gathering, Camouflage

I bought this right before our camping trip and did not have time to set it up and do a "test run" before our trip. When we got to the campground it was raining and the instructions got wet so we had to figure out the set up without them. We were able to use common sense to put it together without difficulty. The take down was just as easy. Just pop the latch at the top center bracket on the inside of the tent. Three of us put it up and though it would have been easier with 4, we were able to do it with no problem. Two could do it but it would definitely pose a little challenge simply because of it's size. The hexagonal shape allowed for much more room. We had a 6' table which we set up for stoves and dishes, large cooler (kept under the table) a 3' dry storage box which we also used as a table, and 4 camp chairs set around and still had room to move. Multiple height settings are great too. My son is 6'3" and we were able to set the hieght to 8' and he didn't even have to duck to go in and out. We clamped lights on the roof frame and it was perfect. This tent is a must have if you have multiple people camping. It gives you a great common area out of rain and bugs. We sat in it during the rain and didn't get wet, even though it's screen because the mesh is so tight. We did have a heavy rain that night and our chairs around the perimeter got wet of course but the rain didn't pool on the dome shaped top so there was no sagging. Living in Florida, bugs and rain tend to dictate your outdoor activity scheduling. Knats and mosquitoes can squeeze through most screen mesh easily and eat you up despite being sealed in a tent. We did not have that problem while in this tent. The dual doors are great because it gives you more flexibility in where you can locate it on your site. I HIGHLY recommend this especially for multi family camping. Can't say a single negative thing. The ease of setup/take down, size, rain and bug protection, and dual doors make this a "must have" for camping.

We just put this up and weighted 4 of the 6 legs with sandbags. Last night, and EF1 tornado passed over our house-may have been more, but we were at the beginning of the path. We had trees down on all three sides, one, 150 year old white ash about 4' in diameter. Another 3' in diameter tree, landed in a neighbor's yard, it is not their tree and no one in the neighborhood has one, it had to come from a 40 acres tract of woods about 1/2 block away. Now you know how brutal the storm was. We were in the basement and a window looks out over our patio. On the way down, I said, "We are going to lose our brand new tent, oh well!" 2 minutes later, all hell break lose. We go upstairs and find these huge trees downed and thrown around. One if them landed about 6' from our patio where the tent was. The tent looked rough, we could only see it in the middle of a pile of branches. It was twisted and leaning badly.I am beyond AMAZED. All I can think of is that the sandbags kept it anchored enough to keep it on the patio, the six sided shape allowed the wind to move around it, and the frame itself had enough flex to move and not break, the velcro let go enough that it vented the top to keep it from flying. It was about 2' from where we originally placed it, so it did "walk" a bit. Inside, patio chairs were blown to one end and the other and three small cocktail tables were also moved, one tipped over. We have had these before and we always screwed them into the deck and they were always taken out by a major storm. Either the frame broke or the tent top would rip. The ticket is flexibility, just like a regular camping tent. If it moves and flexes, and the weights let it move and not fly away, seems to work.

We loved this gazabo. It got some holes in it due to Florida sun. Would like another but not available.Great value, waterproof, easy to take down.

Bought this for our camping trip in cape cod but this isn't an exclusive camping piece; its an attractive summer piece when open that works for formal or casual events too. Winds were up out in cape cod, and so was our powerful little "veranda"; doesnt seem strong with the adjustable legs - did i mention you can adjust the height of the entire gazebo just by pressing the buttons on the legs and raising it uneasy? EASY to assemble; literally almost pops up and open on its own once out the bag and standing up. We got questions and compliments and accolades, folks walked by marveling. Not exaggerating! This is a good investment that will last a LONG time. Worth the money. Only thing I would change is the zipper on the net zipping from bottom up - uh, hard to maneuver with a plate of food to serve but small price to pay for almost bug free camping experience! Love it!

I purchased this canopy 2 years ago. Recently I needed a replacement part and I cannot say enough about how amazing the customer service was.I researched canopies for a about two weeks prior to purchasing this one. The goal was stability, ease and something I could put away “in tact” (that I didn’t need to take apart or put back together). The reviews had noted that this one could be packed up with the screens still on. It absolutely can.The only thing that would’ve made this product better is having wheels on its storage bag. Otherwise this is the best canopy I have ever owned and is incredibly easy to manage. I will always recommend this product and will purchase again for any future needs.

This unit works great, for two years. After that, the top rips/fails (assuming due to sun exposure), and can not be replaced. So you have a solid frame, mosquito netting, and no top. I'm giving it three stars, because it did work well for two summers.
