I purchased this tent for business purposes. Yes you can buy one for less but they won't last. The less expensive ones are flimsy and won't last. Spend the money the first time and save in the long run.

This tent is well worth the money as compared to other ez up tents. It's got a heavy duty frame and the canopy is not a cheap material. The footprint is a true 10X 10 area. It includes options for additional shade for your enjoyment. Bought one and then I got another.

All components, including the storage case are well made and sturdy. Once we figured out the instructions, and got past a couple steps that were not covered, we were able to erect the tent with little problem. Tent definitely requires two people to set it up comfortably. Once we set it up the first time, doing it again will go quicker. Taking it down was easy.

This tent is strong and very appealing. As a full time vendor, this tent out performs my competitors. And finally, the true bonus is that it's over $100.00 cheaper than any other retailer.

Purchased this a month ago and have used it 3 times. The canopy is great and easy to put up and take down with 2 people, with practice I'm sure that I could do it alone, the only thing that prevented me from giving 5 stars was the fact that the stitching on the ends of a couple of the side panel zippers were coming out, I just sewed them back in place and no more issue. I would definitely recommend this product, the canopy itself is as heavy or heavier than more expensive units and the sidewalls and awning are an added plus.

I bought three of these tents because we needed something sturdy and wouldn't break. They seem very good quality, but one of them was missing a leg connector, and Sam's took back and refunded the money on that one. I would have exchanged it if they had any in stock. Not sure how that missed quality control! I do recommend these. I have used lots of these tents and this one appears to be very good quality, easy to set up and has the sides if you need those.

As long as you don't expect them to hold two feet of snow load, they are great. I push my tents very hard with extreme conditions high in the Rockies and they hold up rather well. ,sc

They could be made a bit stronger. I admit, that although I average about three to four of these tents a year, they are the best that I have worked with. The roof support is a must. Especially when dealing with Texas winds. I just bought this tent, and Im already headed back to Sams to get another one.

I bought this canopy to use as a concession tent at baseball game. It was easy to set up and seemed sturdy. Halfway through the game a storm blew in, the first gust of wind it got snapped all 4 poles and the canopy floated away. Both Sams and the manufacturer refused to replace it saying weather was not covered under warranty. I totally wasted the $200. Do Not Purchase!

When I opened the box, I was stoked. The material was perfect and the metal frame was tough. However all the cheap plastic parts holding everything together is what needs improving. The telescoping leg lock (or whatever you want to call it) have a terrible spring locking system. Two springs broke the first day. Lucky, we only used the tent once so when we where finish the rent got returned. Maybe I just got a bad tent. Who knows. It is pretty cool though with the sides that zip up. I did find online that you could get one customized for $50 more. Also a little better quality. I won't post the website. Do the research. You get what you pay for
