We purchased ours the summer of 2020 because we knew we would be stuck at home and wanted to have a bug free yard space. We took it down over the winter of 2020-2021, then put it back up spring of 2021. It has sat in the same spot for the past 16 months through all kinds of weather. Our only problem has been the zipper --- we have a very dusty yard and have been in drought. This little wonder is tough. Planning to get a 12x12 soon!
