Mefo garden 12 x 12 ft Outdoor Patio Swan Gazebo for Backyard, Iron, Polyester Canopy, Beige

This canopy is a life-saver! My porch and deck are both South facing, so they become unbearably hot during the summer. The concrete porch and wooden deck are so hot that we cannot use the outdoor space. I looked and looked for something the correct size that I could use but everything was SO expensive. Then I came across this hidden gem. I figured for the price, I could get at least one or two summers out of it regardless of it's durability. Well, I'm so happy I gave this a chance! It was pretty easy to put together with 2 people. It took maybe 2 hours or less. I took the advice of another reviewer and put the legs in big plastic pots. I weighed them down with stones and then planted perennials in the pots. It looks quite nice.We've had the WORST weather since I put them up but they have withstood the rain and wind admirably. I thought for sure several times I would find the canopy ripped to shreds or have complete lift off. But no, it is rock solid. The covering is NOT waterproof, but not much water get through because of the canopy design. It also keeps the deck and porch much cooler and we are able to grill and sit outside now.So, if you are on a budget but still want things to look quality, this is it! It not only looks good, it has held up nicely this year.

Very nice product. Easy to assemble with two people. Be sure to stake it down, as a small gust of wind could flip it over. Happened twice without damaging the product.

We got this as a shade for where our car is parked. It worked very well. The assembly was pretty easy with 2 people and the frame is sturdy. However, the fabric portion will last about 2 years if you leave it up year-round in full sun. Probably that’s expected. The problem is, the company that distributes/sells this, as far as I’ve been able to tell, does NOT sell the replacement fabric any longer. I’ve tried searching the ASIN #s listed, the support email (@163.com?): no dice. And it’s a custom fabric/canopy with tent poles along the edge made specifically for this frame. So not common at all.The thing I replaced the fabric with was a 10x10 ft sunshade. This was pretty easy to find on Amazon. However, it has less coverage than the original and only attached at the 4 corners (not along the edges like the original). So not made for this frame but it mostly works.So I’m docking 2 stars for this. Otherwise it’s a good value.I think there’s a new version of this whole setup being sold it but will probably suffer the same fate a this model 2 years later.

We love our canopy, BUT with the winds, the bungees have broken after 2 years. I tried to contact the company for replacement bungees that hold the canvas to the frame, but I am finding it frustrating that they did not return my email. I would be more than willing to purchase a replacement pack, but they are no where to be found online.

This awning is very attractive and is nice for the summer and fall, but the top will invert and break with the slightest amount of snow, so please take the tarp off in the winter if you want it to last any length of time. We asked the seller if we could buy replacement parts but did not receive an answer. It is spendy for something that does not hold up very long. Too bad.
