Overall Coleman 12 x 12 Instant Canopy is pretty well made and is a good canopy with a reasonable price of just above $100. The tie downs on the canopy cover really make the thing stable. The canopy did not even move a millimeter in the ferocious winds on the NC OBX coast. It provides considerable shade and is easy to store. It is quite heavy but the added coverage makes up for the haul wherever you’re taking it.
