Taking a trip in July, daughters softball tournament and beach trip. Looking at buying a pop up canopy and looking to see which type or brand holds up the best.

QuikShade / EZ-UP brands...what size do you recommend 10x10, 12x12...straight legged or angled.

Thanks in advance.

Easy Up with the straight legs is what I have. I can have it up in about 90 seconds

Have had a walmart First up brand for 6 years and love it.
Large buttons instead of the fricked up little buttons on the easy up brand.
We use ours every weekend for kids baseball.
I know Academy had the easy up 10x10 for $49 the other day.
Don't know if they're still running the deal though.
I also have a portable misting system I built out of a bug sprayer and it looks like someone pattented my design.
Wal Mart is selling them for fiddy bucks.

Plus they also have the vent release top section that allows strong winds to escape instead of flipping the canopy.

Be prepared. I had one and asses who were too lazy to bring one would stand around waiting for me to pop it open. Had to put my foot down.

The team has 2 they use already so this would just be a 3rd.

Thanks for the info so far

12x12's can get pricier and you might as well get 2 10x10's.
