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

Product Information

There is a choice of 17 different colours to choose from, which is a lot more than the majority of gazebos, and it can be matched to any garden furniture or themes to help it become a complementary feature in the garden. If you’re hosting a dinner party, opt for the middle 327 cm height. If your guests are predominantly going to be standing, the 335 cm height is perfect, and the shorter height, 315 cm is great for camping.

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. 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! The metal frame stands up well to normal use and it does come with four detachable leg weight bags included. There are also eight guy ropes along with four ground stakes. The gazebo can be put together in several ways, depending on how you want to use it. It can be used with just the waterproof roof, with three sides and an open front, or with four sides and a closed front (with a door panel). Three sides can be used to aerate the gazebo and allow for easy access under the canopy, or four sides to offer better protection from the elements. This makes it one of the best pop up gazebos for entertaining guests, as well as using for small commercial purposes.

My Top Recommended Pop Up Gazebos

Available in a huge range of bright colours, the ABCCANOPY Fully Waterproof Pop Up Gazebo is a great option for those looking for a weather resistant canopy in a particular shade. At first glance, the MasterCanopy Durable EZ Pop-Up Gazebo certainly appears impressive. Take a closer look and you’re unlikely to change your mind – everything fits together well, with the gazebo looking very sleek and high-quality overall. How weatherproof the gazebo is can depend on many factors. As seen in the previous section, it partly depends on how many sides the gazebo has and what they are made from. 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.

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. A great option for summer parties, this gazebo has two air vents that allow air to circulate within. The roof is coated with silver, allowing it to reflect up to 99% of the sun’s rays and providing useful shade. Rectangular gazebos often work well in gardens because they’re the same shape as the space. Additionally, they can be a good way to cover an entire patio. People might be positioned further away from each other than in a square gazebo, but you can often fit a rectangular dining table in the space (with sufficient space for people to move around). Rectangular gazebos are also good for having food-serving tables inside or a buffet.
