I bought my first up in the 2007 season to use at my home baseโฆ it is set up 6 to 7 months a year and has withstood heavy thunderstorms and high windsโฆ when I bought I figured if it last 2 seasons that would be fineโฆ it still good for another season and still doesnโt leakโฆ I paid $40 dollars on clearance and wish I had bought every one they hadโฆ
We've had a "Quick Shade" for over 25 years (the same one). We started using it with our tent, then with our PUP, and have used it with all 3 of our TT's. It's lasted this long, and still is good. We take care of it too, spray it every couple years with tent sealer, and NEVER leave it out in the wind or rain. We'll leave the frame in the wind and rain, but never the cover. It's still going strong, and we still love it. We thought about getting a bigger one, but until this one completely dies, there's no need to.

Our Outback TT. Tilting it at an angle like this blocks the sun and creates more shade under the awning. We do this quite often, depending upon which direction the sun is coming from. Also, tilting like this makes a good wind-break. Put the slope toward the wind, and sit under it like a lean-too. This position serves a lot of purposes.
