Football Tailgaters - need help with choosing a canopy

**wazu** · 11-21-2009, 12:18 PM

Anybody found one they particularly like? If so - what's it called and where did you buy it? I am leaning towards getting one from Sports Authority that has optional sidewalls. Was kind of hoping to find a red one, though.

I have an e-z up now and really like it. Got it at Walmart on close out for $70 and bought the sides for $35. I spent $400+ in 2001 from a specialty shop, and it was broken within 2 years.

No matter which brand you choose...get a 12 x 12 size. 10 x 10 is just too small.

Costco. I've had 3 $80 cheapies from a variety of places and they break. The $200 model from Costco is solid.

I got the 10X10 Chiefs model. Works fine for me. Used it for years tailgating. Never got the sides but sure wish I had several times.

That's the same one we've used since 2004. Bought it at Walmart and bought the sides at K-Mart last year I think.
