    Up to now i've been happy sitting under a cheap gazebo outside my bus but im seeing more and more of these event shelters, are they any good and worth the extra cost

    This is what mark takes, seems good and has lasted well in snow etc
     
  5. You can also put your bus under them as well if you like. It then doubles up as a side shelter to the side of your bus. Also we purchased some of the side doors and panels. :) All round very good shelter would recommend. ;) But make sure that it is secured down on all four corners to the ground with good stakes as ours did try to takeoff once on one corner and it ripped the canvas. But I just took it back to the shop and they replaced it. No questions asked. It was very very windy when that happened. So I can thoroughly recommend this product. Shop around. Repurchased ours from go outdoors. They will match any Internet deal you can find plus extra discount off.:)
     
  6. I will be bringing it it up to Spring camp and we may put it up if weather is bad so woody if you want to have a look you're very welcome.:)
