We currently have a folding umbrella for the table, which gives some sun protection, but the tilt has to be adjusted throughout the day as the sun moves and the umbrella provides limited rain protection. The gazebo structure at Lowel’s is much larger and would offer both better sun and rain cover. The roof is not canvas, it’s a permanent aluminum roof with built in wind vents. It appears to be a good quality structure costing about $1,500. We are very intrigued by the concept, but it would definitely change the current character of our setup. If we go with the idea, it would be installed over the picnic table in the below picture.
