It's good for summer and sprig, I left my tent up until September when it first started getting cold and before fall, leaves and rain my discolor the tent, I was afraid of wind damage also. I live in Eastern Pa it got cold quick in 2014.

I live in Ohio. We left the skeleton up, but took down the canvas. It wasn't difficult. I intend to order a backup canvas from the supplier.

Yes, perfect for Spring, Summer and Fall in Illinois. Just Make sure you take it down before the snow flies. We just remove the canopy for winter and leave the frame up, which we screwed into our deck. These gazebos only last 2-4 seasons in my experience- doesn't matter what brand- it's the price point.

There's plenty of headroom, but the panel framework is quite thin and may not hold much weight such as a curtain. I've had other screen houses over the years and can't imagine any of them being able to do much more other than to hold the weight of the vinyl roof. These things are supposed to be seasonal and portable in nature. I for one, have added anchors to each panel channel for I keep it up year round except for the roof which I remove before the first snowfall. I live in New England. These units are very nice and my wife and I enjoy the very much from around the first of April right through much of October ( weather permitting ) There's plenty of headroom, but the panel framework is quite thin and may not hold much weight such as a curtain.

I think the weight of the gazebo possible be too much for this bag. I would not use it for international travel.

As long as your gazebo is structurally sound, you should be fine. It weighs less than 15 pounds.

April, setting this up in sand might be difficult. It comes with metal anchors that are pounded into the ground through the feet of the gazebo. The anchors are very thin or "skinny" and would not secure well in sand in my opinion. There are however, weights that you can purchase that can be strapped on to each leg that could add some added stability to the gazebo. Search for "gazebo weights". Hope this helps.

This is a very nice gazebo. The way any slight breeze filters through the woven ceiling is much better than our first one that had a waterproof, polyester roof. (Which was shredded by hail in a freak late Summer storm because it had become very brittle from the sun...no replacement available.)

We have our gazebo on the rooftop deck in Chicago (think windy city), while it is vented very well, in high winds it did start to shake and move, so we ended up screwing it to the deck and filling the hollow columns with sand (about 1 80lbs bag per column), the combination of the sand and the screws makes it rock solid. In the winter we take the canvas down so not to get snow build-up. If your not in as windy a place, you might just try the sand trick.

We have left this outside many times and it stands up to the rain and sprinkler system just fine. If it starts to get windy we just unhook it from the sides and bottom and closed it like a curtain. During the winter we did take it down and stored it.

The Newport gazebo can be taken down and reassembled, however we suggest using caution so as not to strip any screws or bolts. If your concern is for snow accumulation on the roof during the winter, you may want to consider removing the roof but leaving the frame standing.

That wouldn't be a problem at all. I wouldn't leave it outside 24/7 in the sun and everything for days on end, but I would see no problem with it being outside. In fact our deck chairs are a bit wider than our dining room table chairs, so it'd probably be even more stable(not that it's a problem at all tho!)

We've used these 3 seasons now. I don't remember how tall they are but for our First Up gazebo they are a little long.We used plastic attachments that wrap around the frame and the end inserts into the head of the attachment.

I love this gazebo ! Is made from excellent fabric material and comes with a bag for storage. Ok ! Is 12 x 12 room and I pretty much believe is like 8 or 8 1/2 high looking from the inside. Could be enclosed or leave it open. All with zippers. You will love it ! I wish I could send you pictures.

You can collapse it so it isn't standing up in case of strong winds. If you live in an area with year-round moderate weather, you should be able to leave it outside, but I do recommend collapsing it when not in use.

I have a 12x12 hex gazebo. We just purchased the last top about a year ago and it is in fine shape..In the heat and direct sunlight out here in Arizona it hangs in there pretty good. we replace about every 4 or 5 years.the fabric is standard but it does last!

I'm in Pennsylvania - We take ours down in November and put it back in late March/early April. Snow and ice collection on the canopy I believe will ruin it if you leave it up. But I know what you mean about it being a big job to take down.

I live in a north suburb of Phoenix. The canvas top is water resistant. I don't know about water proof. In a good year we only get about 7.5 inches of rain. The sun and wind here destroy the clothe in about 3 years. I don't know anything about a ROLSTON gazebo. My gazebo is 10' x 10'. It was part of a package deal with an above ground jaccuzzi I bought in 2003.

we leave ours out all summer and into the fall. We put it up for the winter when mosquitoes are gone.
