ADVANCE OUTDOOR 13x20 ft Carport 2 Roll up Doors & Vents Outdoor Portable Storage Shelter Garage Tent for Vehicle Boat Truck Anti-UV Snow Resistant Waterproof, Beige

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."

This is actually very nice car port 10x20. Was delivered next day. Pretty easy to install. Me and my wife who is 5ft tall did it in couple of hours. Tent material is kind of thin but have plastic coat which is absolutely water proof. In my area we don’t get much wind so can not evaluate that. I just set it on wooden blocks and on the floor I put concrete tiles. Also like that you can open doors on both front and back. As improvement can recommend to make easy roll doors up.

This is a pretty decent storage shelter. I have had mine for almost 3 years and it’s holding up and keeping the sun and most of the moisture off my 4 wheelers and small equipment. It has been through several strong winds and has been damaged and is getting worn. The doors held up pretty good but after about 2 years the zippers give out and start ripping. Things I would recommend is to get some screw in anchors and put 6 of those in at rack corner and in the middle on the long sides and use ratchet straps to hold it to the ground. The wall pieces are a little long and I piled some wood 4x4 I had to help keep everything tight. I then took 4 additional ratchet straps and kinda stretched it out. I tied one to a telephone pole and then tied off to something else on the other side and did that on all 4 corners to help with side winds. I had one strong storm blowing right at the side and it belt and broke most of the leg poles so I got 2x2 boards and tied the 2x2 to the legs tight and it seems to be working good. The other thing I would recommend is not even using the bungee cords they supply to hold the doors on. They stretch and fail quick and allow wind to blow in. I used baler twine but you could get a good rope that will fit through the grommets that won’t stretch and it will work better. Also if you can weight the bottom of the doors so they don’t flap in the wind. Snow is also a concern. Mine has done good with some heavy snows. If it’s really bad I mock it off with a broom from the inside. Snow slides off pretty easy. You can contact customer service and get replacement but there is a language barrier but they are quick to respond and easy to deal with.

We use this as a storage garage for a 12 foot popup camper, and the 10x15 option is the perfect size for us. It is made of very thick, sturdy PVC fabric. The zippers are robust and have been easy to zip and unzip. Assembly was straightforward but we needed a third person to help with putting up the fabric once the frame was complete (we are a 70+ year old couple). We especially like the horizontal stabilizers near the ground. We get pretty stiff wind at times, and so far this has been rock solid. It's not flimsy at all. We put sandbags along the bottom flaps to help with stability.

This is a wonderful company to buy from! I had a problem with one pole which I damaged, (backed into it), and they sent me a replacement at no charge! My carport is superior. Great quality. I highly recommend this product, you will be so happy with it! Withstood a harsh winter.

I purchased this in April of 2023 to use as a temporary shelter for equipment while our barn was being built. Our property sat in the middle of the Manistee National Forest in northern Michigan. I put the thing up myself with the help of my wife and kids. Pretty straight forward and the instructions and quality was what I expected for the price point. I have to be honest though, I did NOT expect this thing to last long in that environment. Well….this thing sat in the National Forest for 2 winters and summers and then I disassembled it and rebuilt it in my back yard at home. It has survived another winter and I’m telling you the last 3 winters in Michigan have been no joke! I went out this winter after about 2 feet of snow had accumulated and knocked it off from the inside with a push broom and that’s it! I couldn’t even reach the property the two previous winters to do that and it still stood perfectly intact! It says it’s good for 5 years and I’m at 3, but considering the extreme environment this one was left in I thing 5 should be expected in a less harsh environment. Point is, this thing is a great product for the price! And I NEVER leave reviews but this tent has amazed me! Problem is now I need to replace the fabric and I am having a hard time just finding a replacement fabric in lieu of purchasing the whole thing again. Hopefully Advance is watching and reaches out.

I use this to house HEAVY equipment outside in the elements of Minnesota. Thing holds up GREAT. I put cinder blocks on each foot and it survived 60 mile an hour winds. Customer service was helpful for my questions as well.

Came together pretty easily, frame seems to be of good quality. The cover really is the main point of the shelter, mine had some pin holes, seems equivalent to a medium duty tarp. I hope that it will last at least two years, but I don't really know! Nothing gets my goat as paying for something and being short on missing hardware. I have to go to the local h hardware store and purchase the needed hardware to finish its assembly!
