[MR] EZ up type tents

[Maymunah al Siqilliyah]

I have used them for farmer's market type sales.  They do NOT withstand 
wind very well.  You can weigh down the feet with something but if the 
wind picks up the top and the feet are planted and there's any torque, 
it will twist the cheap bars in a heartbeat.  If there's bad weather I 
would take the thing down in hurry and I would not go away and leave it.

Yes, you can put them up yourself, but it's still a lot easier with 
another person.
