Easy setup is ensured with color-coded poles and pin & ring frame attachment. Additionally, the tent is weather-resistant with a removable rainfly and taped seams for protection against the elements. This model follows a simple 3 step process, which is common among many instant editions. It’s a matter of unpacking, unfolding, and extending the legs to your desired height. There’s no complicated insertion of poles and we love how it’s well-designed to be completely hassle-free.
The one complaint we have is that there is no vents in the fabric at the peak to ozark trail chair release the build up of hot air under the canopy. The telescoping angled legs are well designed and slide smoothly until locked into place of one of the 3 leg lock positions, a choice we always love having the ability to make. The angled legs add a bit more stability than straight-leg tents which we also like, but the design reduces the top canopy to 8’x8′ dimensions resulting in only 64 sq. The plastic foot pads are a nice touch that you don’t often see on value-priced tents and they do a good job of protecting the bottom of the legs from wear and tear.

For those extra scorching hot days, the peak roof vent creates additional ventilation. It also helps to prevent it from easily blowing away, seeing as the wind doesn’t get caught on the large volume of fabric. In the low-cost range of outdoor shelters, the Ozark 10ft x 10ft Trail Canopy is definitely at the top in its class. It sticks to the classics, with a very traditional design that works. There may not be many bells and whistles, but we don’t think it’s necessary here. For adjusting the height of this model, there is a push switch system that is designed to make things as easy as possible for the user.
With the help of the provided stakes and guy ropes, you can stake it down, so it remains secure. The second purpose is to prevent it from blowing away. Think about it like an umbrella, where you may often feel a whirl of air getting stuck between your head and the umbrella. This is where it would usually flip inside out, if the wind is strong enough, and it can damage the frame. A definite smart design choice, the ceiling vents are a massive advantage for Ozark Trail Canopy and ultimately have two purposes. It’s typically used by families, couples, or groups of friends going to outdoor events, but we can see it being used for more commercial purposes.
