Picked up a shade shelter on sale ...

Postby Bobcape » Sat Jul 13, 2013 2:26 pm

I was in Cabela's and saw this shelter on sale for $75 down from $130. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Camping/Tents-Shelters/Shelters-Screenhouses|/pc/104795280/c/104779080/sc/104611680/Eagles-Camp-Screen-House/1317235.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Fshelters-screenhouses%2F_%2FN-1100673%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_104611680%3FWTz_l%3DUnknown%253Bcat104795280%253Bcat104779080%26gclid%3DCKWjvpb-rLgCFUqY4AodhkYAcw&WTz_l=Unknown%3Bcat104795280%3Bcat104779080%3Bcat104611680#BVRRWidgetID. I like the compact packed size. Also like the vertical walls. I set it up in the backyard. I purposely didn't read the instructions first. For two reasons - 1. I wanted to see how hard it would be. 2. Like all men I understand that instructions are just someone else's opinion on how to put it together! :D It took me 8 minutes to set it up by my self. And no broken poles! I like it so far.

Replaced the cheap stakes right away. Got 10 of this for $0.78 each.

I left it set up most of the day to stretch out a little bit. I took it down about 20 minutes ago. No problem getting it back in the zippered case. Pretty good deal for $75. Much smaller and lighter than my EZ-Up.
