About this product
X 13 Instant Canopy – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Tanzania.
A 13-foot shade canopy on an accordion steel frame that opens in about three minutes, with UV 50+ fabric and a wheeled bag to get it there.
Shade is the thing you run out of first at a Tanzanian event. This is the large CORE canopy: an accordion-style steel frame that pushes open like a concertina, with no poles to assemble and no separate top to thread on. Two people, about three minutes, and you have covered ground.
The fabric is 150D polyester with a UV 50+ coating, so it is doing real work against the sun rather than just casting a shadow. Two vents in the top let hot air escape instead of collecting under the canopy, which is the difference between shade that feels cool and shade that feels like a greenhouse.
The legs telescope to three heights, so you can set it low for wind or high for headroom over a stall or a table. The buttons on the leg locks are oversized, which sounds like a small thing until you have pinched a finger closing a canopy.
At 47 lbs (21.4 kg) it is heavy, and CORE has sensibly put it in a wheeled carry bag rather than a shoulder bag.
