We debated for months whether or not to purchase one. Finally pulled the trigger on purchasing a 10' X 10' Coleman awning and boy are we glad we did. It provides portable shade just where you need it. For us mostly over the picnic table. However we also used it to shade the inflatable kiddy pool we have for our grandchildren. Without to much effort we moved it without tearing it down. We camped in a spot where wind was not an issue. If winds did pick up above 20 mph I would simply remove the canvas only and leave the frame standing. If you use it on a concrete pad you will have to figure out a way to secure the legs to the ground. In my case two legs where on dirt and two on concrete. I pinned the legs on the dirt and used extra tie down (para cord) on the two that were on the concrete. Worked well. Wish we would have bought one sooner. Good luck. P.S. the Coleman we bought was about the same price as the EZ-UP. I have used EZ-UP in the past for craft booths. I think the Coleman's leg adjustment latches are easier to use with my nerve damaged hands.
