It isn't the biggest one 10'x10' Slant Leg yields 64 Sq Ft. But it is really nice for getting 10-15 folks out of the rain. A bargain at $49.99

Looks like you can order online and pick up at the store. Also if you spend $50 or more you get $10 back
I highly recommend getting some weight plates too. A set of 4 can work with winds up to 15 mph.

If you want to add sidewalls these should work. Two of them would cover the whole canopy. Just a fair warning...in high winds it won't work well. Better for cold, less windy days. We've had luck with sidewalls up to about 15-20 mph winds.

Anyone have any comments/questions about canopies jump in.
Bottomline: These canopies are low cost ones. So you really need to have practice putting them up and down. It helps to have 4 persons but 2 can set one up/takedown if they are skilled. Do Not attempt to set up/take down with 4 drunk guys using beer muscles...you will destroy it. There is a skill and a set way to do it. Learn carefully while sober in your back yard with a buddy or two. I found it best if one guy carefully explains each set to the other 3 at the tailgate. Grab 3 smart friends, it helps if one of you is pretty tall to work the canopy velcro.
