Not sure, could be a great deal if the quality is there. But without more I would get the Costco one as well

Horrible reviews on Amazon [amazon.com].

I have used different canopies, and even though price does make a difference in terms of quality, they all blow away if they aren't secured properly. For the price and because it has walls available, you can't beat it. The main thing is you want to make sure you secure it properly.. Don't put too much weight on the supports or they all bend (some easier than others). We use to put the anchors in the ground as well as adding some sort of hanging weights... If you can, try to get the curved anchors, they work a whole lot better- you can get them at some camping places. Cement blocks work great for hanging.
Added note... I have put together hundreds of canopies and all of them can be difficult at times... It takes time and practice .... After a while you know how to set them up and what works and what doesn't .... And ways to get around problems... Last edited by sharky1214; 01-30-2013 at 02:20 PM..

I am always amazed at those that offer nothing but their negative opinions without supported facts and you wonder why this community will not rep you and you have 100 times more posts than reps???
To the person that posted reviews on Amazon, thanks, AVG 3 out of 5 Stars makes me belive that this is an average product, but for this price in my mind (MY OPNION) with Free Shipping it makes it an excellent deal for those that are in need of something like this. Like most things in life I am sure there is a bit of truth in reviews as well as plenty of operator error. Oh well to those that want to take advantage enjoy.

Oh by the way, I have access to a 3D printer. Tell me where I can get a better deal on these right now and we can talk.

http://www.sears.com/search=shelt...0%20canopy Overall, I think the OP has an OK deal. These tents are generally overpriced and mostly get beat up fast. You can probably find this price pretty easily if you shop around. Sides are a big difference and are probably the biggest appeal for me. I'd likely prefer getting one of these even if it only lasts a year with constant use over getting a $650 heavy dugy one that only lasts 2-3 years. |

Only if you plan to build this and take it out after couple of hours usage/family gathering, on a nice clear weather, no wind.
I have this http://www.walmart.com/ip/Shelter...gMethod=rr with 1.375" frame, Its mediocre tent. So I can't imagine .75" and 1" as a stable tent. Nope. You can search ShelterLogic here and see that this kinda tent comes up on SD often. Last edited by area201; 01-30-2013 at 03:27 PM.. |
