ADVANCE OUTDOOR 10X15 ft Garage Shelter Steel Metal Peak Roof Portable Storage Shed Carport for Motorcycle Boat, or Garden Tools with 2 Roll up Doors & Vents, Gray

My biggest concern with a shelter like this was that the tarp would be the same cheap kind of tarp that you get at Walmart. I can tell you the tarp for this shelter is made of very thick material, rip-stop PVC, but not at all like the ones sold in camping supplies. I would even call this a 'PVC Canvas'; it is so nice. The shelter was delivered in two boxes, one with all the poles, and one with the canvas and connectors. We did the assembly with two people, but one person could potentially do this alone. It took my wife and me about two hours in total. The directions were very nicely written in American English, not in 'Chinglish.' Diagrams were plentiful and made assembly a snap. When we separated all the parts, a few of the poles had small dings from shipping, but it was not enough to compromise the structure, so we went ahead and assembled it. I may call them to get some replacements, but I'm not overly concerned. The rods and connectors were all neatly packed and, at first blush, look nice and solid. Also, every piece literally snaps into another, which makes assembly very simple. You build the roof first, which is nice because it gives you an idea of the area it will take up, and it can be easily repositioned for optimal placement. Next, you assemble one wall, not two. It is important to only do one wall and then cover it with the doors and roof/wall tarp before erecting the second wall; otherwise, you will need to be up on ladders with two people. Every pole has a sturdy foot at the bottom that stakes to the ground. All of the joints feel nice and thick and super sturdy. Time will tell. When putting on the canvas, you put the doors on first, which are bungeed to the frame, but the roof/wall canvas is where this shelter really stands out. Many other shelters out there have separate roofs and walls which tie to the frame with grommets. The issue I've seen with them is that the grommets tear. Advance Outdoor instead engineers this shelter using a unique belt and pole system with no grommets. The roof and walls are one large piece of canvas. The canvas has a belt on the front and back door that tie down on the four corners using a ratchet strap. It works like a hoodie on a winter coat when you tighten it around your face. Then there are wall poles that slide through tubes built into the tarp near the base of the walls, and horizontal poles clamping those to the vertical wall poles. The ratchet straps and the horizontal wall poles are how the roof/wall canvas is held onto the structure, so there are no grommets to tear or rip. Once the canvas and doors are on the structure, you raise the second wall. At this point, there is some tweaking to get the canvas centered, and it helps to have two people and a ladder at this point. The horizontal poles on the wall should end up about 6 inches off the ground. Another nice feature of this shelter is that you get 12 very solid metal stakes that are about a foot long to give the structure a nice deep anchor into the ground. Overall first impressions: 1. Nicely packed and all parts present. 2. Easy for two people to assemble with only a rubber mallet needed to hammer stakes into the ground. 3. PVC Canvas is an impressive thickness and has a quality feel with a big 'Advance Outdoor' logo. 4. Poles and especially joints seem to be very good quality, with some minor shipping dings on 3 poles. 5. Smart 'no grommet' design of the main roof/wall canvas to avoid the common issue with other shelters. 6. Assembled in only about two hours. 7. Overall, a great experience."

We use this as a storage garage for a 12 foot popup camper, and the 10x15 option is the perfect size for us. It is made of very thick, sturdy PVC fabric. The zippers are robust and have been easy to zip and unzip. Assembly was straightforward but we needed a third person to help with putting up the fabric once the frame was complete (we are a 70+ year old couple). We especially like the horizontal stabilizers near the ground. We get pretty stiff wind at times, and so far this has been rock solid. It's not flimsy at all. We put sandbags along the bottom flaps to help with stability.

I bought this 8x8 shelter five months ago in March 2025. The current price is about a third less, but that could change. I did not use the fabric covering but instead just use the frame as a canopy frame with a tarp for a temporary patio in my backyard. For this it works well. The tubes are large and strong and are a big improvement over the popup canopy I was using for several years, whose legs finally broke in a 50+ mph wind. The cover seems to be the weak point in this anyway. They don't sell just the frame. I covered the frame with a 9x12 tarp and it works great. When the tarp deteriorates, it's a cheap and easy replacement. I laid rubber mats from a local DIY store on the ground over landscaping fabric to keep the mud and weeds at bay. The frame is a bit loose when you shake it because of the pins used to connect the tubes, but it was straightforward to put up and has been holding up well in storms and winds up to maybe 45 mph. The little bungee cords used to hold the cover to the frame are deteriorating in the sun, so I've been replacing them with cord to tie the tarp on. They should last better when used as designed in the interior of the shed, out of the elements. It did not come with enough stakes to fit all the holes in the feet, so I had to supplement them with steel nail-type tent stakes.

This is a very nice tent. Seems like the material is decent quality. I and a friend put it together and it was easy enough to assemble. So far it's been up for over a month. It does keep the stuff dry as we've had some pretty significant rains. the main thing is keep it taunt when you set it up. There are velcro straps that work very well. The vents on each side do provide some ventilation. The thickness of the material was a little concerning but so far so good. The multiple stakes keep it stable and firmly in the ground. Protection of my stored items seems good at this point.

This is a wonderful company to buy from! I had a problem with one pole which I damaged, (backed into it), and they sent me a replacement at no charge! My carport is superior. Great quality. I highly recommend this product, you will be so happy with it! Withstood a harsh winter.

I purchased this in April of 2023 to use as a temporary shelter for equipment while our barn was being built. Our property sat in the middle of the Manistee National Forest in northern Michigan. I put the thing up myself with the help of my wife and kids. Pretty straight forward and the instructions and quality was what I expected for the price point. I have to be honest though, I did NOT expect this thing to last long in that environment. Well….this thing sat in the National Forest for 2 winters and summers and then I disassembled it and rebuilt it in my back yard at home. It has survived another winter and I’m telling you the last 3 winters in Michigan have been no joke! I went out this winter after about 2 feet of snow had accumulated and knocked it off from the inside with a push broom and that’s it! I couldn’t even reach the property the two previous winters to do that and it still stood perfectly intact! It says it’s good for 5 years and I’m at 3, but considering the extreme environment this one was left in I thing 5 should be expected in a less harsh environment. Point is, this thing is a great product for the price! And I NEVER leave reviews but this tent has amazed me! Problem is now I need to replace the fabric and I am having a hard time just finding a replacement fabric in lieu of purchasing the whole thing again. Hopefully Advance is watching and reaches out.

I would have left 5 stars, but the instructions are not very helpful. Fortunately, I have some mechanical experience, and was able to figure it out pretty quickly. I just set it up today, so we’ll see how it does in the long run. I’m on the east side of tornado alley, and do get some serious wind here, along with snow and ice. Overall it seems like a quality product, and it’s the perfect size for my needs. I learned a long time ago with these types of storage systems that it’s best to duct tape all the joints. Helps keep everything in place, and doesn’t allow for damage to the cover during wind. Update: 1/29/26 Well, I didn’t expect to update this quickly, but we just got hit with some of the nastiest weather in some time. Wind, rain, snow, and ice. My bike shed held up well. No issues whatsoever. I’m very pleased with it so far. I keep a Govee in my covered boat, so I can monitor temperature, humidity, and dew point. So I put one in the shed too. Very inexpensive here on Amazon. $10-12 bucks I think is all. The little round one is the ones I use. Been 3 years in the boat and still working perfectly. Anyway, I digress. I highly recommend this little shed. Anxious to see how it holds up in the summer sun.

I bought this 10'x20' carport for my Ford Ranger. We were sick of shoveling it out of the snow. We live in the green mts. It fits in it perfectly. We were considering a metal carport and am very glad we went with fabric instead. It was very easy for me to set up. It took about 4 hours with 20 minutes of help from my wife. It is very sturdy. Last night we had high winds that blew my big bbq around the deck and knocked over some wood piles but the carport was fine. I'm very happy with this purchase. There are a couple things you should know. I sharpened the tent posts they provided so it would be easier to pound them into the gravel of my driveway. When pounding them in, make sure the doors are zipped shut or you may have to reposition the stakes. I had to bungee the center of the door up a few inches so the flex antenna on my truck would clear. I highly recommend this carport/storage shed.
