You can put the tent up very quickly. The frame is an accordion style which means you just simply open and close it. Please let us know if you have additional questions.

yes, it can be down and put back up. however, I don't recommend daily. It will ware on the hardware.

You would have to make a small modification. I find the screen a challenge to put up on the wall by myself. If you wanted to take it down and put it up quickly I would create a small wire loop on each of the top connects that goes above the frame, then it would be very easy. This is assuming you would store it put togetherIf you want to roll it back up each team then it would take 15-20 minutes to take up and put down.

It's is very easy to put up and take down. My 65 yr old mother in law set it up before we arrived and had no trouble. There are two latched per side on the top rail that have to be realsrsd by pushing a hidden button. As long has you have strong enough hands you should be good.

I used this for an expo which was setup in a parking lot. Its very easy to install on asphalt surface. Only potential issue I see is wind. But I guess if we put down some weights it can withstand some moderate wind.Also I bought this in Aug-2014 for 139.99.

Not too heavy. Would need two people to take it down just to be cautious. I hope you have a super safe place to store it.

Just staking it down completely (8 pounts around the perimeter) is pretty secure. If you're expecting really strong winds then you can add guylines from the top corners. The wind fastness ultimately depends on your stakes and the soil type.We camp at a beach on Lake Superior a couple times a summer and have had strong onshore winds (strong enough to rock our trailer) and this tent with the extra guylines had no problem staying up.

It's not the easiest to take up and down. The pieces snap in and would be hard to take apart. I would guess about 15-30 minutes build/take down time.

In any wind condition that is above a few miles an hour you will need to anchor it. It is heavy and pretty sturdy but not heavy enough to withstand any moderate to severe wind. It comes with tie downs that are built in to the canopy that you could probably extend and anchor in the yard just off the patio. Or if you want this to be a more permanent structure you could use cement anchors thru the feet.

It's fairly easy to install and take down, maybe 10 minutes both ways top, so you could do that. But in general that seems like it would be a pain, I ended up leaving mine up! It looks pretty cool too :)

Yes, anyone of any age can put it up amd down in a minute. Super simple. Holds up to high winds too.

I used this for my wedding....then started renting it to people for small events like parties and weddings. Works good once you get a system down. The first time takes forever but as after you leave it partially assembled I can put it up in less than two hours......now that is taking out of trailer and setting up. You have to have 2 people minimum........my advise.....get some real anchors and straps or it will blow away if it gets windy...and also...leave the rafter pieces together...saves you a lot of time putting up and taking down.

It is fairly portable. Does take some practice the first few times to set it up. I numbered the metal frame pieces to make set up quicker. With two people and some practice only takes a few minutes to set up. With any breeze out thought, it will need to be anchored down. But if you are looking for something for quick and easy, you might want to look at an easy-up that doesn't have several parts to put together each time. This one has about 30 frame parts to assemble.

We always set ours up on the patio and use bungee cords (2) to secure it from the top of the screen to the deck top. We only leave it up for the duration of the party due to possible issues with wind. Any reasonable wind could tweak it and cause damage. The framing is very solid, however one never knows when that freak wind may blast through.

Haven't used it outdoors. But based on experience I wouldn't expect it to remain stable in even the slightest breeze. Think one could blow on it and make it move

Not long. May be 2 hours. I don't move it around and it is not an issue for me.
