    Popup canopy

    Currently I use a 10x20 shelter that must be assembled, but I`m looking to utilize a popup for quicker setup, what is the biggest one they make? I love all the shade I get from my 10x20, but its a bear to put up (about 15 min). Thanks!

    I was going to ask how much does those pop up canopys cost? Might be worth the investment to get one.

    I found a 10` x 10` canopy at SAM`s Club here in SC for $150. They claim it takes 1 person 10 minutes to put up. Don`t know if it`s worth saving 5 minutes for a smaller area of shade.

    How long does it take to put up the pop-up?

    I have a 10`X10` EZ-UP that takes less than 90 seconds to set-up and less than 60 seconds to tear-down.

    On sale at Sports Authority for $70 (reg. $160)

    To my knowledge 10x20 is the biggest in a EZ-Up pop . You need 2 people to handle that thing , its huge and heavy . You could buy 2 10x10`s for less money and you can pop them up yourself . Becareful and make sure you weight them down somehow . The wind can catch them and blow them around and do some damage.

    I use a 10x15 pop up from northstar canopy, it has a aluminum frame and is light, goes up in about 90 seconds,and is much better than ez-up.

    Thanks for the heads up, I just got back from K-Mart, bought the EZ-UPS 12x12 for $79.99. Now I can wax my truck in the shade with the sun up.
