Stands up great to wind and rain
Likes
Very large. Easily fits over and around a normal size picnic table. When staked down properly this thing held up very well to some pretty severe winds and thunderstorms. I also had the optional side walls installed at the time. The description says it helps with a “passing shower” but I can attest that it will handle plenty of rain. Also packs down to a very reasonable size for transport. The polls are shock-corded together so it’s easy to assemble them in the correct way.
Dislikes
Setup is more complicated and time consuming than a free standing bug shelter (two people working together REALLY speeds things up). The optional side walls only secure via a few loop attachments. This means some wind and sideways rain can get in at the edges (not a deal breaker, they still function well and are worth it).
