Alvantor® Screen House Gazebo, Pop Up Screen Tent, Instant Screen Room with Carry Bag, Outdoor Mosquito Tent Camping, Sun Shade Shelter for Patio, Garden, Backyard, Deck

I have a hammock that has a screen netting. But sometimes I just want to set outside using my existing patio furniture. So I wanted something that provided protection from the bugs. I’ve had a more permanent gazebo with netting but it limited where I could be on the deck. So I wanted something more flexible and wasn’t a permanent structure. This pop up tent was the answer to my outdoor needs. It allowed me to have shade and protection from bugs anywhere on my deck. Now I can enjoy the outdoors in peace. PROS - easy to open and set up. - Great protection from bugs and the sun. - Can be used anywhere such as your deck, patio or grass. Has accessories to keep it grounded. - Instructions on how to close it are attached to the bag so you can’t forget or lose them. - nice carry bag - Compact enough to hide when not in use or to carry to sporting or outdoor events. - Big enough for two people when opened. CONS - Wish it could be broken down to make it even smaller so I could put it in a regular suitcase when traveling. - if this is not secured down with the included ropes or putting some weights at the bottom like a chair or sandbag, winds can carry this away. But easy to fix this. Overall this a great pop up canopy tent. I was surprised how easy it was to close back up and put in the bag. But the directions and video make it easy. And the poles naturally want to go back to their positions so that makes it easy. I highly recommend this.

UPDATE 4 years later: I’m still loving this screen room after 4 years of using it almost every day from May to September each year! It’s in the same shape as the day I got it except for the roof is slightly lighter color bc of sun. I’m 63 and it’s easy to pop up and take down. I’ve tried other ones but the screen is not as taught and see through as this one. I love to watch birds and it’s as clear as if I’m sitting outside and not in a screen tent. Never had a bug get in unless when I unzip the door. The zipper has been easily opened countless times every day and no wear and tear at all. None. I’ve definitely gotten my moneys worth and enjoyment from this tent. Get it! Original review in 2021: It’s perfect and easy to setup, literally a minute. The only con is it has to be taken down if it’s really windy or rainy because the top of it fills with water. I’d wanted something I could leave up and not have to watch the weather forecast daily. It’s tall enough to stand in and fits a 2-3 chairs and a small table. Keeps every single bug out. UPDATE: I can not live without this screen room! I’ve been putting it up and down with such ease and I put 4 hook screws in my deck so I can easily hook the tabs on the bottom and have tied the long lines to the tabs so both hook up. If it’s windy I tie 2 around my deck rail. Easy and so comfortable! Works perfectly! Can also see through the screen as if it’s not there. You need one! No more bugs! None!

This is a great addition to my travels. Easy set up, great for mosquitoes. I set up my herbs on small camping tables with small hiking/camping chairs in this pop up canopy. My cat to hung out with me when I read a books in beautiful landscapes ( bottom secure with sand bags provided ) It's more tall than wide but it served its purpose and is pleasant with string lights and paper lanterns inside. Product is sturdy if set up properly. It endured 14 days of solid rain in a coastal environment. Just pop the top from inside to throw water off for sagging after heavey rains. This item is a incredibly large when it's folded into a circle. It was cramped in the bed of a jeep gladiator and did not fit in the bays of my class A Motorcoach. It might fit better in a full size truck bed or fifth wheel bays. Overall it was a good buy.

One person alone can set this up and take it down and stow it easily and compactly. So much better than those spring loaded pop ups that are always a struggle to master and require too much space to stow. This seems well-engineered and well-built, sturdy enough for this smaller size. Don't expect this to be a sun shield or rain shield, it really is only for flying insect defense and works amazingly well for that.

Mosquito in Texas are hard to avoid. They make your outdoors activities unbearable. But not when you use this cute screen house! It comes folded in a zipped carry bag. It weights 9lb and diameter is 43", so make sure it will fit into you car (although it bends a bit) if you want to take it for travel. The folding/unfolding is a bit tricky, so watch the video provided by a seller & there are more videos on YouTube. Once you get a hang of it, it's a few seconds job. Really easy, but you need to practice it few times. The tent is sturdy and provides a total enclosure. Entrance is zipped. The net all around gives you an unobstructed view, great ventilation and UV protection. It could be secured with sandbags, but it's not recommended to use on really windy days. It gives you some protection from a light drizzle, but is not waterproof. It's 6'6" high so even tall people don't need to bend inside. And with 6' circle area it's spacious enough for a small table and 2-3 folding chairs. I am using it on my patio, when I want to sit down with a cool drink and read a book or do some work on the computer. You can set up a baby crib or a small playground for your toddler. Did I mention NO MOSQUITOS to bother you while you work or relax? That's the main reason why I bought it, and it works perfectly. Try it and you won't be disappointed.

Years ago I had an amazing screen house tent I basically sat in all day, every day, all summer, and wrote a book in. (I furnished it with an outside couch, table, lamp, everything.) But that screen house took about half an hour for two people to put together, and I'm on my own now and wanted something much simpler. This fits the bill! I will probably buy the larger size one too! But this size is literally perfect for carrying down to the beach or out into the woods or just putting right outside my front door. I am sitting in it right now, happy as a clam, not getting "bugged" by bugs. I'm gonna use this all the time. I'm gonna essentially live in it. If I put a foam mattress in it, I may sleep in it, too. Literally, the minute you unstrap it, it starts unfolding. It is NO work to put up. It takes 5 seconds to pull the side out and that's it. One thing, though - I thought it had a floor, and it doesn't. But the lower part has lots of overhang so you can spread them underneath and keep the bugs from getting in from below.

I went solo camping recently, first time in years. Remembering how bad the bugs can be at Lake Superior, I purchased the 6x6 screen tent to be able to enjoy the sunset without mosquitoes. It was a breeze to set up, but do read the instructions before releasing it the first time as it expands immediately and with some force. Once open, it’s easy to move, stake down, and enjoy. I placed an picnic blanket down for the “floor.” If it seems confusing to close, look for an instructional video online or read the directions as they are helpful. Don’t worry, it’s not supposed to fold back to it’s original size, but will fit perfectly in the handy storage bag provided. I like the internal poles, height and width, large zippered entry. My dog seemed to appreciate napping in it during day when the the biting flies were out! Not large enough to cover a picnic table but plenty of room for 2 or 3 chairs and a tiny table. Also, it’s a screen tent, and is not designed to keep out the rain!

If you're having trouble, check the legs (poles). This would have been returned if I could figure out how to fold it back up, but in my struggle to fold it one of the legs got turned around and I realized the issue. When I opened the tent the legs opened backwards, so I was unable to stand it up or pop the top piece. Honestly not sure if my fault or packaging's fault. I understand it may be my need for clearer instructions; the ones included (regarding twisting poles) aren't detailed enough for some. I saw other reviews stating the top was too hard to pop for some folks, so thought it was just my weakness at first. But once I wrestled all of the legs in the correct direction then it was very easy to get up. This is first impression because it was so unbelievably frustrating, but I'll update if it wows me during use. It fits perfectly over a futon frame for sitting.

Looks very well made but not used it yet but

Perfetta per starsene all'aperto (giardino, terrazzo, ecc.) senza essere presi d'assalto dalle zanzare. Bisogna sotanto prenderci la mano con l'aprirla e chiuderla per riporla in saccoccia. Splendida!

Sehr einfach aufzubauen, 1 min und fertig. Nur schlecht zu verstauen (Camping) über 1m Durchmesser.

So I get this for midges and it help. No fly can get there. But is something obout may is too light not sure. Isn't good for windy days and definitely need matt

Using it for my hot tub and it’s amazing we love it thank you
