Wenzel Ontario 15- by 13-Foot Screen Gazebo

The scant written directions were worthless. The bottom edges did not lay flat on the ground even with the stakes in place. Not a 1 person job. The frame poles were ingeniously designed - only good part. The fabric did not appear durable.

We have an annual Labor Day picnic that we set up a food tent for to keep the majority of the bugs away. Last year, we used a tent bought from one of the major chain stores. It cost the same amount of money that this tent did. That tent was a marriage-wrecker. It was amazing we were still together after 4 hours of erecting the monster. It took duct tape to keep the joints together. After a day of standing, it started to lean, and multiple metal rods bent. We ditched that tent and bought this one on Amazon.
This tent was a DREAM to set up. It literally took us 20 minutes to set up. The construction was intelligently designed. It stayed up for almost 2 weeks with no problems. It came down in just as much time to put up. I could not be more pleased with this tent. I would highly recommend it!

I use this for camping. You need at least 3 people to set up, I was hoping it would only take 2. When it rains, because of the gazebo shape, the rain poured in the sides. Had to stay in the middle to stay dry. Not worth the price.

We set up this screen house for the first time at a campground in the UP of Michigan. It withstood some windy weather and a little rain without any problems. Set up a second time for a backyard party, again no problems. This screen house is large enough for a picnic table and 3 chairs with plenty of room to move around. EASY setup.

This screen house is a great dissapointment, even greater considering the $[...]+ cost.
First the good: The screen is a high quality mesh, the craftmanship of the actual construction of the material is very good - the stiching is perfect and all panels are neat and even. The zippers are good quality and were no problem at all.

The bad: the total design is a failure. the rain fly for the vent on top of the roof is a joke - its barely larger than the hole. If there is any wind driving the rain, the rain is in the vent hole. Where has anyone ever camped when there hasn't been a breeze? This screen house will NOT stay up in a breeze. The support poles are not connected solidly to each other, only tied together with two small sewn-in straps at the top. The whole structure twists and comes down. When it does come down the poles bend where they join together. If the poles were in a solid plastic hub this would not happen, although the poles are of such a soft wimpy grade of steel that they would probably bend at the hub, like they do where they join. The hooks that hold the screen material to the support poles are cast material. When the screen twisted to the ground one of the hooks snapped in half. By the looks of it , more will break in the future, and they are in a platic tag in a way that they cannot be replaced - we had to tie the screen to the clip with nylon string after the hook broke. The poles are too long or the tent is too short, because the ground flap only touches the ground at the base of the poles. Between the poles it rises up so that it is over 6 inches off the ground - and to respond to a previous VERY generous review, it is not because the ground is uneven, our site would only have been flatter if it was poured concrete. So, although the zippers are of good quality and work great, they are usless because of the large crescent shaped holes under the screen in between the poles.

The Ugly: This screen house after one camping trip to Ocracoke. It was so twisted at the end that we had extra stakes and tie-downs on it just to hold the twisted piece of crap up, and its sole purpose was to provide shade over the picnic table.

All-in-all: A waste of $[...]+. When you go camping and you see someone with a good screen room, get the brand and model info and get it. You cannot buy something like this by reading reviews, you need to see it assembled and in use.
