Easy to put up Pop-Up Gazebos

[JG1965]

Does any one know of a cheapish Pop-Up Gazebo that is easy to put up( that I could put up by myself or two people at the most?
Thanks in advance.

never again with pop up gazebos. the summer before last we had a windy day and the whole thing took off and cartwheeled across the garden...it was fastened down as required, AND tied to our strong fence. The guy ropes tied to the fence broke. I was alone in the house at the time and luckily the gazebo got stopped by a tree. I slashed big holes in the cover to let the wind through and tied the framework to the tree to stop it travelling any further

Cheapish may not be the best solution. Look for one which has additional strengthening bars to the roof in each corner because they can get very unstable in wind. Most gazebos need two people, usually in opposite corners, to concertina them out. If your garden is windy, buy some strong metal anchoring legs - the sort that market traders sometimes use are probably the best ones; anchoring with guy ropes can be pretty unsatisfactory as somebody always trips over them or on patios there is nothing to anchor them to.

one strong wind and the're ruined. all the poles buckled on ours. a complete waste of time
