I got this for my Memorial Day bbq for my family and friends. I have been a fan of this gazebo because it is made of the best material and comes with the weights so it doesn’t moves from its place. The only thing I miss in this gazebo is the net mesh that I had with my old gazebo but by far this is the best gazebo for backyard parties and to make your backyard look amazing. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a gazebo for their backyard.

NOTE - this review was for the 10x10 ABCCANOPY, not the 10x17 the review is currently attached to. I do own a 12 x 12 of this same style listed here as well, but it is not the same style as the below review. My 12 x 12 is better suited as a sun shade v rain shelter, and is not quite as beefy as stated in the below review. However I will state in general that both the ABC's I own are of better quality than the cheaper ones you find at Wally World. Once again - this was for the 10 x 10 of a different style, apparently no longer available: I have owned many, and they all have only lasted a couple of years. This beast is the BEEFIEST I have ever seen. The frame is really heavy - easily twice as heavy as the others, and all the joints and locks are super heavy-duty. Generally, the joints and locks are what have failed on past EZ-ups. I LOVE the pointy roof, it prevents water from standing. I had it up in the woods for about 10days. One night it POURED, and another night it was a steady, moderate rain that lasted about 8hrs. Not once did I have to dump water from the top. Straight legs vs the splayed out ones make it easy to wrap it up in some tarp "walls" for driving rain. I winter camp as well, even in winter storms. I built a fire pit on my land that has a brick wall to reflect the heat at me. I use an EZ-up with 3 walls to keep snow off me, and the walls really help hold reflected heat. I can't wait to use this bad boy this winter - I am anxious to see if the pointy roof keeps snow from accumulating too! I will update after some heavy winter camping, as I update and return to all my reviews.... 7.24.2020 ***UPDATE*** 09.29.2021 - I am still using this EZ-UP without issue. It has been set up and taken down a couple dozen time. Held up winter camping just fine. Dry snow won't accumulate on the tent, however heavy wet snow does indeed stick. In the case of the heavy wet snow, it will only stick so much weight - after a few inches of accumulation, the whole sheet slides off in an avalanche. That part is not so fun if you happen to be standing under that edge! I cannot fault the EZ-UP for that though - overall this is a far superior design to the cheap unit you'll find at your local Wally World, and well worth the few extra sheckles.... Buy with confidence!!! I also upgrades my tent walls to the ABCCANOPY purpose built tent walls. Search for "ABCCANOPY Sidewall Kit".... *Pro tip - If you ARE using the cheap models and deal with rain puddling up, a pool noodle can prevent that. Get 4 pool noodles and put one in each corner. Tuck it between the frame and the cover in a U shape with the ends toward the outside and the base of the U pointing up towards the top. Google "pool noodle on ez up" and check the pics out. It really works!

I wanted to put in a review to put my experience with the gazebo. I bought this for a Sunday party of about 20 people and I expected this to be like a normal gazebo where the cover goes on top and it gets expanded from the bottom. I did not expect the top of the gazebo is attached to the frame and it folds in with the gazebo. I was impressed and it makes closing and storing so easy and it gets done with in minutes. I would recommend getting help with setup and and to closing because the process goes very smooth with 2 people rather than just 1 person setting and disassembling it.

I was looking for something easy to use, portable, and nice for an event I was having. This canopy was perfect. It was easy to assemble and looked great. The shades were also perfect as there was a bit of sun peaking through. It was big spacious enough to accommodate the set up and people. I would def recommend!

able to put up with 2 people

I like the better then average sturdiness of the legs. The extra shade provided by to extended ends, comes in very handy as the sun moves. Being able to lower them as needed is a plus attribute. I did NOT like the assembly instructions!!! They would have been more helpful with picture descriptions!!! Once the top was on it was very easy to pop up the center to lock it in place. I must emphasize easy for me, my wife would have had difficulty to push it up enough to lock. Working under it made it much more comfortable when Temps we're 95 to 100 degrees. The special underside material made a great difference. Have not yet taken it down for storage with the top in place so if the closes and easily fits in its storage back, I'm going to be very pleased.

Easy to assemble and very durability . It’s a decent size with the good price. Due to bad weather unable to set tis outside. We are waiting for summer to get this setup outside in my patio. And it’s delivered very soon with all the parts included . Comes in a big bag easy to carry on any where.

It's pricey, but worth it. Every canopy always breaks, just a fact of life, but I have high hopes for how long this will last. I purchased this canopy for car camping and it did its job perfectly. This thing is super sturdy, and the extra shade from the movable awnings is such a great benifit I've only taken it out once so far. I set it up, winds were calm, and i didnt stake or weight it down. well, thats an obvious mistake. Winds picked up around sunset, and this thing did a full 180, landing upside down and then rolled a bit more. Anyone who knows canopies, knows that this is usually kills them. This thing held sturdy, and was perfectly fine. I flipped it back over, staked it down and attached the included weight bags and filled them with dirt. No issues the rest of the trip.

I bought this for patio shade so we could sit out with our pups while they enjoy their enclosed play area. I put this up alone, and although it would have been easier with a helper, it was still doable and fairly easy to manage. The frame is very heavy and seems to be well made and will hopefully hold up well. The canopy top is a nice soft gray, matches my siding just as I'd hoped. The fabric is a nice weight. The awnings are a definite plus and along with the color of the canopy, the main reason I chose this item over others. I keep one side down and it provides side shade and some privacy between houses. The other stays up for additional shade over my patio. I am very pleased with this purchase.

I’ve been using this tent for the past month at the beach. It’s sturdy, easy to assemble (less than 10 minutes) and not too heavy or bulky. It gives a family of 5 enough shade and it did not move with the strong wind at the beach (due the the opening on the top). I like the extra shade on the sides. The material looks strong and durable.
