Hi: I bought one of them from BusDepot last summer and am pleased with it overall. It has plenty of room, and is not difficult to set up/attach etc. The stitching and construction is probably a little weaker than a 5 or 6 hundred dollar model, so I'd recommend buying some sort of generic repair or sewing kit. Some of the stitching separated on mine, but not too serious. (it did get pretty windy)... The link below has some shots of mine... http://exploits.dyndns.org/aug2002/ Tom
