OUTFINE 12'x12' Gazebo Outdoor Pop up Canopy Tent with Curtains and Shelter for Patio, Party & Backyard (Khaki)

The setup was simple and straightforward, took me and my brother about 30 mins to complete. The look is stylish and the design is sturdy. I am happy with this purchase. I would recommend this product.

This was SO easy to assemble. Definitely need 2 or more people to get it up and down but it’s perfect for what we needed it for and much more. The stakes are trash so get some better ones if you plan to use those. Otherwise I’m extremely happy with this

First of all, I have owned many canopies through the last 40 years and have lots of experience with multiple brands. Never have I experienced a more frustrating purchase and a more complicated set up process. 1. Straight out of the box, a clip which locks the corner extention in place was broken off and rattling around loose. 2. One of the telescoping leg brackets did not function at all. 3. Part of the cover that goes around the leg was sewn into one of the top seams. 4. There was a significant tear in the fabric on one corner. 5. There are small holes in another corner. 6. The inside corners of the larger canopy top were still sewn together (which baffled me at first when trying to set this up). The velcro piece on the small canopy top is half the size of the matching piece on the larger top, which leaves significant open space on all sides. I obviously never got as far as attaching the netting but I noticed the canopy only has small velcro patches in each corner and just one in the center of each side, so I assume the netting would have had many sagging areas. Finally, you cannot leave the canopy in place if you fold it up in case of bad weather. You must remove all canopy parts before closing the frame EVERY time. Obviously I'm returning it immediately, but since it fits so tightly in the shipping carton, I destroyed the box trying to remove it. My husband is now out trying to BUY another cardboard box to fit it, as it must be packaged in order to return it. I tried to include as much useful info as possible. Buyer beware.

We were out of town when a hurricane hit. I didn’t expect that to happen. However it stood firm. The top is shredded. I just wish I could figure out a way to contact the company for a replacement (that’s why I gave four stars).

This review is for set up and putting it all together, reason for 4 stars. Longevity, quality overtime feedback will be added later and maybe change to 5 stars (or less) depending on our experience. We felt it best to review this product this way based on some of the negative reviews we read before purchasing.We received this gazebo from Amazon on May 2, a day early, so shipping is fast. The box is very heavy so if you aren’t strong, have someone help carry.We bought this to use onsite when using our RV. We do have an attached awning but when the wind elevates or becomes gusty, we don’t want the awning out. This gazebo was $140. A new awning set up plus labor to attach to the rv would run us close to $1000. So we keep the rv awning for when needed and will be using this gazebo when the awning is not needed.I put this gazebo up by myself (I’m 58). I’m started the set up at 5:30pm and was done with the set up at 6:20pm.This is an all in one set up. No poles to connect or tape together. You spread out the frame partially, add the canopy top and then push up from the center to lock into place. Extend the 4 corner poles to the height you want (3 height settings) and it’s up. Last - either anchor with attached stakes and cord or use the 4 sandbags that come with it. We chose to use the bags and filled with rocks. Each pole has roughly 30-40lbs of weight keeping it down, 120-160lbs total weight.Others have commented on how flimsy the canopy material is. You are paying $140ish for this gazebo. If you want iron or solid steel and canvas topper you need to get the one for $500 and up. As for the material for this canopy - it’s not bad. It’s like any other canopy for under $200. It’s fabric not plastic, too. Canopy went on easy and secures snug to the top frame. There were no tears or hesitation when attaching. I inspected all the seams and attached features like the peak canopy. All were double stitched and the stitches were tight - not loose.The screen walls are nice. We weren’t looking for screen walls and will only use when grandbaby is visiting. The screen walls go up on all sides in less than 10 minutes and attach nicely with clips and Velcro. They zip well and don’t drag on the ground. Tying back to poles when not in use is an option. However, since it’s fabric screen, not metal for the side walls, we felt when not in use, tied back to the four corner poles, the screen walls would age and become dirty and perhaps become inusable. So we took them down and stowed them for when needed.We like the portable travel case the gazebo comes with. Since the entire gazebo farm is very heavy, having a secure bag with roller wheels on it is a nice feature to protect it and roll it around.We had rain and wind last night so our first night with the canopy up was a good test. Our winds were 12-15mph with some 20-22 gusts. And it rained for 9 hours. Today, the canopy is in the same place and still snug/secure. It’s all about the weight of you don’t want it to lift up and blow away in a storm. Weighting this canopy to the ground is essential.As stated in the beginning, we are new to this product and cannot attest to the canopy and the structure longevity over time. In a few months we will come back and update the review. In the meantime, we are pleased and enjoying our new “gazebo”.May 7/2024 Update: We’ll, it’s been a week. Gazebo has been up the entire time. The temp difference from direct sunlight on a sunny day to shade under the gazebo was 12 degree difference. Nice! We did have a storm warning where gusts could get to 40mph. So what we did was lower the legs completely leaving them at roughly 4’ tall. Then we pushed the center peak lock to release tension. Then removed the canopy and stored it. Took 5 minutes to do all that. Roughly 20 minutes after doing all this huge wind gusts came through then the storm. We got it adjusted just in time. The frame stayed stable the entire time. When the storm passed we put the canopy back on and raised the legs - again less than 5 minutes. Frame is in perfect condition. Since then our winds have been between 8-15mph all week and not a thing wrong with the canopy frame or purpose of the canopy. Note: During initial set up we stake the corners of the canopy to the ground footing of each pole during set up. This keeps the corners from moving during wind. We also added more rocks to the sand bags. I weighed each on a bath scale and all 4 bags are weighing 50lbs each. The sand bags are huge! If your poles are staked & weighted the frame isn’t going anywhere if the canopy isn’t on. With the canopy on there will be some lifting of the pole feet stakes you just have to go back around and check them from time to time. I’m feeling confident this canopy will do just fine over the summer. FYI - we are on Lake Michigan where there is always a breeze and we get Chicago winds from across the lake. Proper assembly, anchoring and common sense will save your gazebo!
