MasterCanopy Durable Ez Pop-up Gazebo Tent with 1 Sidewall(3X3M,Dark Grey)

Product Information

The gazebo comes with six sandbags, 12 guylines and 12 solid stakes for stability. It withstands breezy weather well, but should be taken down in higher winds. To erect this gazebo, you simply pull the legs out, and raise it to the right height – there are a choice of three height settings and the lowest option can be useful to give more stability on slightly windier days. Whilst it’s relatively simple to put up, two or three people are still required for assembly. A showerproof gazebo will protect from light drizzle but it will not keep heavier rain out. Gazebos that are ‘water resistant’ should be impermeable to heavy rain. Often, it’s difficult to know exactly how much protection a gazebo will offer from the rain until it’s erected in the garden and put to the test. No matter its waterproof rating.

If you want a more protected shelter, get a gazebo with sides . However, enclosed gazebos can get stuffy on warm days, so make sure the sides are removable . Air vents can help circulate air and prevent billowing , no matter which style gazebo you go for. The roof material is fully waterproof so offers good protection during events like those inevitably-drizzly summer BBQs. It’s made from PVC-coated fabric and the poles are rust resistant. The fabric also has a UPF rating of 50 so protects against the sun, although the colour of the gazebo is prone to fading over time. Rain can also pool on the top, so maintenance will be required to push it off. For this reason, during heavy rainfall, it’s a good idea to bring the gazebo inside.As previously mentioned, gazebos with sides (not netted sides) will stop it from being too breezy inside. With promises of being easy to set up, sturdy, and weatherproof, the MasterCanopy Durable EZ Pop-Up Gazebo certainly looks appealing at first glance. To find out how it really fares in various conditions, I put this product to the test on my windy Scottish farm. There are other features to consider as well. The gazebo may have walls, or not, or windows (or not!). And some gazebos have several entrances or mesh sides. The ABCCANOPY Pop Up Gazebo With Side Panels and Door is suitable for a variety of uses such as commercial events, camping and entertaining at home. This is because there are a variety of sizes available (2.5 x 2.5 m, 3 x 3 m, 3 x 4.5 m and 3 x 6 m) as well as the option to have three or four sides in place. If you have a specific purpose in mind for your pop up gazebo, for example if you know you’re going to want to fit a table in there for meals, measuring the items that you want to put in the space will help you work out how big a gazebo to buy.

It has a rust-resistant steel frame that’s been powder coated, and a heavyweight 260 g/m² polyester canopy. There are four leg-weight bags included as well, to help keep the gazebo in place, along with guy rope and tent pegs. It also comes with a large carry bag that makes transportation and storage more straight forward.Measuring 2.5 x 2.5 m, the ABCCANOPY Pop Up Gazebo Commercial Gazebo is a good choice for smaller areas. It also comes in 2 x 2 m, and 3 x 3 m sizes.

If you’re hoping to host a gathering, no matter the weather, you’ll likely benefit from a gazebo with protective sides. These can be closed around you and your guests if the weather takes a turn. Avoid sides made of netting and look into more structurally solid sides which perhaps have windows built in. As mentioned, whilst this gazebo isn’t intended for rainy weather, it’s well suited for the summer. The roof provides UPF 50+ UV protection, so it offers good shade from overhead sun – sunlight can still get through the sides though.

Additionally, several pop up gazebos are height adjustable, like the MasterCanopy Durable Ez Pop-up Gazebo; in these instances you’ll be able to choose the height that makes sense depending on the day. When there’s more of a breeze, some people like to have the gazebo adjusted to a lower height. There are three heights to choose from (81”, 77”, and 73.2”), and this is adjusted by pushing the red button on each leg to extend it. According to MasterCanopy, the height adjustment feature is pinch-proof. Although I didn’t end up pinching my fingers each time I changed the height, you do need to be very careful! There are 23 colours to choose from overall, so whether you have a favourite colour, or just want something that fits with the scheme of your garden, there will be viable options. One of the only downsides of this gazebo is that some of the brighter colours are more prone to fading in the sunlight over time.

Finally, there are gazebos with detachable sides that offer the best of both worlds. These gazebos can be used as just a canopy when shade is required, with the walls being added on when the temperature drops in the evening. Weatherproofing

Designed to be assembled by just one person, this gazebo simply pops into place. It can be put up in around 10 minutes, with no poles or tools required. It’s easy to adjust the height settings, and it comes with a wheeled carry bag for transportation. The wheels make it easier to manoeuvre the 17 kg weight of this gazebo.
