About this deal

Solid and sturdy are how I would describe the frame on this pop-up gazebo. The combination of iron and steel components gives it a lot of strength and stability, while the powder coating has also been done well and should help to fight rust for quite some time. The gazebo comes with the usual extras such as weight bags to be filled with water or sand, tent pegs, four guide ropes, and a wheeled carry bag to store it all in. The carry bag is as good as the ones for both the ABC and Master Canopy products, and I had no complaints about its quality. It’s not going to last forever, but it is decent.

After you have everything set up and have staked the feet into the ground with the supplied metal pegs, you then need to connect the provided guy ropes to the gazebo. The other end of each rope attaches to a metal peg, which you insert into the ground – this helps to hold everything in place. So, with that being said let’s take a look at the best-selling pop-up gazebos to see if they live up to the hype, and are worth investing in. Best Pop-up Gazebo Buyer’s GuideThe height of the gazebo can be adjusted through three different settings, giving you a choice of clearance heights; 6.4ft, 6.7ft, and 7ft, however you have to realise that the bars of the frame will sit lower than that, and at the highest setting I would guess that to be around 6.5ft from the floor, so still plenty of room unless you are exceptionally tall. As we said, this isn’t the cheapest pop-up gazebo out there, and for the money I would have expected maybe a little more. It isn’t that this is in any way a bad product. In fact, it’s a very good one, and looks absolutely fantastic, but I would have thought that the sun shades for the sides could have been thrown in with the price. The frame is really smooth and easy to erect, requires no tools at all thanks to the ring-pull clamps, and only took me and the wife about 15 minutes to get the whole thing, including the canopy, up on the first try, and less than that on our subsequent attempts. It is made from strong metal, and is a step above a lot of other models that I‘ve tried in recent years.

The most important part of a pop-up gazebo is the frame. A weak frame will cause you so many headaches it’s just not worth trying to list them all. Look for frames that are made of powder coated steel, with support bars, and reinforced corner sections. Ease of assemblyThere are also two window panels which can be attached using Velcro. However, the plastic material used for these seemed a little brittle to me so I wouldn’t attach and remove them too often if I was to use this gazebo over the summer. Included in the price are all the things you’d expect; sandbags, guide ropes, ground stakes, etc. and of course there is a carry bag to store everything away once it’s folded down. There is nothing really bad I can say about the Airwave pop-up gazebo. Sure, it has some minor faults, but for the price you would have to search far and wide to find something that has a frame as stable as this, and includes the extras like the side panels. This is a very good option for a tighter budget. There are two main types of canopy tents available: portable and heavy duty. A portable canopy tent is lightweight and easy to move. It is typically smaller than a heavy-duty tent and is best for recreational use. These types of tests are usually inexpensive and easy to set up in a few minutes. However, a portable canopy tent is not as durable, especially in extreme weather conditions like storms. They are typically only used during the event and then taken down and put away.

At first glance, the MasterCanopy Durable EZ Pop-Up Gazebo certainly appears impressive. Take a closer look and you’re unlikely to change your mind – everything fits together well, with the gazebo looking very sleek and high-quality overall. Airwaves have included side panels with this pop-up gazebo and a door that can be rolled up when you need more ventilation. This is a really good deal for something in this price range, even the more expensive brands and models tend to sell their side walls separately, so this was a nice extra. The same can be said for the main material of the canopy and curtains. Made from woven 180g/m2 pa coated polyester, the dark beige material is very durable, will cut out unwanted UV, and will stop you getting wet in a shower. It has to be said though, that this isn’t completely waterproof material, and in heavy rain, water may pool up on top and begin to drip through. It isn’t a lot, and it does have to rain quite heavily for it to happen, but it was something that we noticed when we tested ours, so probably not a great idea to leave it out all autumn and winter with cushioned garden furniture inside unless sprayed with water repellant first. At 3.6 x 3.6 metres, this is a good sized gazebo and there’s plenty of space for adding chairs and a table, even with the netting or curtains drawn and zipped. The highest point of the ceiling is quite impressive too, at least from the outside, but the metal from inside is obviously lower. Still, it is spacious, and can easily accommodate 4-6 people. In addition to the large drape curtains, the KEXMY pop-up gazebo also comes with netted sides to keep gnats, midges, and flies outside and away from you, your food and your drinks. The netting is colour matched to the gazebo, at least ours was, and the material is not flimsy in any way.

The frame height is adjustable through three settings, but unlike the ABC Canopy gazebo that had metal ring-pull clamps, this Master Canopy model used push button ones instead. I know there will be people who will prefer this mechanism over the ring pulls, and there are good reasons for that, such as less chance of catching your skin by accident. However, personally, I always prefer metal to plastic for things like this, even if the plastic is really good quality like on this product. On the lookout for a pop-up gazebo? Well, here are some of the main factors you should be thinking about before parting ways with your hard-earned cash. Size Another great feature of this gazebo is that you only have to set the canopy onto the frame a single time, and after that it can be left on. It won’t affect how the gazebo folds down, and will save you a lot of time in the future. The ABC Canopy 3×3 metres pop-up gazebo is probably the best of its kind that you’ll find for under 150 pounds, even pipping the excellent Master Canopy gazebo and All season Gazebo to our top spot by a whisker. There are two main parts that make or break the best pop-up gazebos; the metal frame and the canopy itself, and ABC canopy have nailed both here. The Master Canopy pop-up gazebo comes in its very own wheeled carry bag, and thoughtfully, the company has printed the assembly instructions on the outside of the bag. I thought this was a nice touch, even if they aren’t really needed after the first set up as it’s so simple.
