North Pole 10- by 10-Foot First-Up Straightwall Gazebo (Blue)

This product is currently out of stock
Description:

Spacious and sturdy, North Pole's First-Up Gazebo offers a roomy place to hang out in the shade or be protected from an unexpected drizzle while camping, picnicking, tailgating, cheering on a soccer team, backyard barbecues or any other outdoor activity. Measuring 10 by 10 feet with a center peak height of nine feet, the gazebo provides a generous 100 square feet of shelter and is comfortable for even the tallest members of your party without having to duck to enter and exit.

Setting up the gazebo is quite simple, due to its First-Up design. The steel frame comes fully assembled and only requires two people and about five minutes to open it by pulling and extending the frame, which is easily accomplished by walking it out while each person holds a leg on diagonal sides. Safety lock mechanisms on each leg lock into place and the lightweight fabric shell fits neatly on the frame to form the roof. Velcro fasteners along the inside provide additional reinforcements to keep the shell attached to the frame. The gazebo also includes stakes that can be inserted in the holes at the foot of each leg and hammered into the ground for more support. In addition, guy lines are attached to each corner, which may also be knotted and looped into the stake, further assuring that the gazebo will be stable on the windiest of days.

Velcro fasteners secure the shell to the frame for added support
Once assembled--which truly took this reviewer less than five minutes on the first attempt with one other person--the gazebo is ready for your enjoyment and can comfortably accommodate about ten people or more. To disassemble, simply unhook the guy lines and remove the stakes before pushing the button on each leg to unlock the safety leg mechanisms and carefully lower the legs. Next, detach the Velcro fasteners from inside the shell before removing and folding the fabric shell for storage. The legs will collapse by walking in at diagonal sides and can be neatly stowed in the carry case and rolled around to a storage spot until its next use.

5The pop-up shade envied by others  Aug 26, 2006
By tp
We purchased the North Pole tent to use with our camping trailer. Last weekend it went for its first trip, I was camping at an event where everyone had shade tents (it was 97 degrees out). When I arrived friend came over to help me get set up, seeing that I had a new shade tent it became a focus of interest (I was grateful to have a hand as it doesn't seem likely 1 person can set this up on their own). Comparing our tent to all the others we are very happy with our choice (most folks hve an E-Z up or QuickShade).

North Pole Pros:
- More stably built, two arm support at the corner to the roof brace and an overall stronger feel to the frame.
- Velcro on the corners to help hold the top on, especially nice when setting up in wind.
- Velcro straps at the middle of each side of the top cover, to secure the top to the frame (it's now held at each corner and the middle of each expanse with velcro in addition to a tight fit).
- Velcro straps at the middle of the support arms to the top of the tent (roof braces), to help secure the top to the frame.
- Push buttons over the metal release buttons so you don't kill your thumb trying to lower the tent or when you take it down.
- Great wheeled carrying case.
- Cost LESS then the other tents (and delivered to my front door).


The only two things that could hopefully be improved upon (these are an issue with all these pop-up shades) are the overall weight and being able to set it up and take it down with one person. However, they provided a very nice wheeled case to help with the weight and the added velcro on the corners may allow me to set it up myself if I inch around it in a circular manner.

4Overall I'm Happy :-)  Sep 18, 2006
By K. Lee
I won't mention the price I purchased this for but it was dam good (probably the cheapest ever listed) and free shipping can't be beat!

I probably could have put it up myself but it would have definitely taken some time.

I had 1 person to help me put it up. We struggled a bit but no biggie.

Taking it down I had 3 people helping and that made a big difference.

If there are 4 people to put it up and take it down let me tell you, that's the way to go.

It rained and the seams are not sealed so it leaked a tiny bit in various spots. Good for anyone else to know ... so make sure you seal the seams first.

The canopy is still attached to the frame and the bag it comes with has an extra zipper to expand the upper part where it's now bulky. No problem packing it back inside the carrying case.

4Great Canopy  Aug 27, 2006
By M. Mahoney "irishdoc"
I used this canopy on the beach in Hilton Head with 20 mile an hour winds, and it held up great. It offers a large footprint of shade, and has guy-wire type supports for the four corners. The height has 3 adjustments. It is well-made and easy to put up with 2 people (easier with 4). Drawbacks are it is heavy (around 35lbs I think) so lugging it to the beach is a chore. The instructions recommend removing the top before folding, so that is a little extra work compared to canopies that fold with the tarp still attached. Overall, we were quite happy and came home without sunburns!

5Great Product & Company  Jul 13, 2006
By T. Paris
Easy to set up and well build. I forgot to tie it down and a gust of wind blew it over. It went tumbling across the yard and the frame broke. I call the company and they sent out a new frame. No questions, no hastles. Great product for the price and good support.

5My friends were envious!  Nov 02, 2006
By B. Crowe
I had bought one of these not really knowing the quality. I received it and the next day used it at a tailgating party. By the end of the party , I was headed home to buy 3 more for friends. The ease of set up and take down was great. The bag that it comes in is also very handy. Needless to say I have had this about 3 months and 8 football games and it is still wonderful. I do not know about wind tolerence, but I know it does keep the rain off of us.
