Anchoring starts with base plates under each foot, then 4 empty sandbags to be filled on site, 4 wind ropes and 8 stakes, which is what a 10.1 ft peak needs when wind crosses an open yard. The frame is carbon metal reinforced with truss bars, weighing 44 lbs assembled. Oxford fabric with a PU coating forms the top, wear-resistant and tear-proof against branches, and it sheds sun and light rain alike. The rim sits 6.4 ft above ground across a 10 ft square footprint, so a table and chairs fit without stooping. Folding is tool-free, and the packed frame slides into a rolling bag measuring 63 in long, which turns a heavy frame into a one-person move across a lawn or a parking lot. It is not intended for severe weather.
