We got the original canopies to provide sun shade and rain protection for our flea market stand. They have been up the entire summer April to the end of October for two years and the covers are showing some deterioration from sun exposure, so we're putting on new covers. I anchored each of the poles with a 5 gallon bucket filled with concrete, and they have withstood two storms with 60 MPH winds.
I'm happy with the service for the price.
