They are in stores from tomorrow. Has anyone ever bought one of these? Are they any use? https://www.aldi.ie/gardenline-anthracite-pop-up-gazebo/p/804090466101600

Got one a couple of years back. Reduced as it was the last one left.
Put it up and used it twice before the wind caught it and damaged the roof frame.
It was not a strong wind. It is not a strong structure.
However, we have used it twice since by propping the rafters with bamboo canes and cable ties! Still have it and may use it again.

Coincidentally, one of the neighbours also has one, exact same situation, wind caught it and roof damaged but they have propped it up since too and used it.

Grand if used on a still day for a bit of shade. Anything else and it's not strong enough. But for €60/€70 it's probably what you'd expect to get.
