Nice Thick Tarp and Sturdy Construction
My biggest concern with a shelter like this was that the tarp would be the same cheap kind of tarp that you get at Walmart. I can tell you the tarp for this shelter is made of very thick material, rip-stop PVC, but not at all like the ones sold in camping supplies. I would even call this a 'PVC Canvas'; it is so nice. The shelter was delivered in two boxes, one with all the poles, and one with the canvas and connectors.We did the assembly with two people, but one person could potentially do this alone. It took my wife and me about two hours in total. The directions were very nicely written in American English, not in 'Chinglish.' Diagrams were plentiful and made assembly a snap. When we separated all the parts, a few of the poles had small dings from shipping, but it was not enough to compromise the structure, so we went ahead and assembled it. I may call them to get some replacements, but I'm not overly concerned.The rods and connectors were all neatly packed and, at first blush, look nice and solid. Also, every piece literally snaps into another, which makes assembly very simple. You build the roof first, which is nice because it gives you an idea of the area it will take up, and it can be easily repositioned for optimal placement. Next, you assemble one wall, not two. It is important to only do one wall and then cover it with the doors and roof/wall tarp before erecting the second wall; otherwise, you will need to be up on ladders with two people. Every pole has a sturdy foot at the bottom that stakes to the ground. All of the joints feel nice and thick and super sturdy. Time will tell. When putting on the canvas, you put the doors on first, which are bungeed to the frame, but the roof/wall canvas is where this shelter really stands out.Many other shelters out there have separate roofs and walls which tie to the frame with grommets. The issue I've seen with them is that the grommets tear. Advance Outdoor instead engineers this shelter using a unique belt and pole system with no grommets. The roof and walls are one large piece of canvas. The canvas has a belt on the front and back door that tie down on the four corners using a ratchet strap. It works like a hoodie on a winter coat when you tighten it around your face. Then there are wall poles that slide through tubes built into the tarp near the base of the walls, and horizontal poles clamping those to the vertical wall poles. The ratchet straps and the horizontal wall poles are how the roof/wall canvas is held onto the structure, so there are no grommets to tear or rip.Once the canvas and doors are on the structure, you raise the second wall. At this point, there is some tweaking to get the canvas centered, and it helps to have two people and a ladder at this point. The horizontal poles on the wall should end up about 6 inches off the ground.Another nice feature of this shelter is that you get 12 very solid metal stakes that are about a foot long to give the structure a nice deep anchor into the ground.Overall first impressions:1. Nicely packed and all parts present.2. Easy for two people to assemble with only a rubber mallet needed to hammer stakes into the ground.3. PVC Canvas is an impressive thickness and has a quality feel with a big 'Advance Outdoor' logo.4. Poles and especially joints seem to be very good quality, with some minor shipping dings on 3 poles.5. Smart 'no grommet' design of the main roof/wall canvas to avoid the common issue with other shelters.6. Assembled in only about two hours.7. Overall, a great experience."

Inexpensive shelter to keep lawn tractor dry.
Perfect size for my intended use which is keeping my lawn tractor out of the elements.The 6 x 8 size is perfect and assembly was easy for one person to handle.I don’t encounter extreme weather so this item should be quite stable.

Pleasantly surprised
10'x20' model. I would give 4.8 stars if that was an option.The current version of this garage is well made with a heavy tarp material. Metal structure is good--around 130 pounds of steel tubing and fittings. All pieces were accurate length, shape, and the doors and tarp fit perfectly. The doors and tarp weigh around 40 pounds total.The tarp pulls down tight on the ends with the ratchet straps. Good design. Copied from shelter logic probably.Very easy to set up. 2 experienced people could do it in an hour. It took me 4 hours working alone, including anchoring it down--see below.The 24"x24" screened vents are a great idea. I will leave them propped open. Not sure what the wind will do the the little Velcro propsThe tarp extends out onto the ground at both sides. I put down long 2x4s on the tarp and placed seven 8x8x16 concrete blocks on the 2x4s on each side. I placed foam sheet between the concrete blocks and the sides of the garage to keep the blocks from chafing the tarp.If you push the bottom rail down when you finalize it and tighten the wing nuts, the rail tightens the tarp nicely. Not quite like the rendering in the ad, but close.I also used the included metal stakes, but they are inadequate to hold the garage down in a wind.Will the tarp hold up to the sun? Will the structure survive a 50mph gust of wind? Stay tuned.A similar shelter logic garage weighs almost double, but it costs almost double, so take your pick.

Good Design; Easy Set Up
I bought the small 6' x 6' temporary shed. I'm impressed, so far. Not much for instructions, but enough. Easy set up by myself. It took 1.5 hours start to finish. A large shed probably requires some help from a second person. The shed is sturdy, well anchored, and sheds water well. Nicely designed. All the parts were present.

Worth it
Very sturdy, has stayed in position through some pretty rough weather. It is spacious, we got it for our 360 lawnmower and there is a lot of space left. The instructions weren't all that great and not all of the poles were labeled, but if you know how to put things together you'll be fine. Nothing has gotten wet inside of it, either.
