What canopy size to buy?

[JustJesus]

Depends on the wind in your area.

One guy in So Cal can't use a canopy cuz his winds are pretty strong, and often(?). I've been mostly lucky with occasional light winds. It's scary when you start seeing a small lift in the canopy, though. I've used jack stands in the past.

I recently did order proper canopy weights though. 10lbs each, total of 4 weights.

Ok. Will look to get 10 pounds weights then. I wonder if I could use my weight training Weider plates... I never use them

12x12 CANOPY. Straight leg. Make sure it’s 144sq ft.

Had to get the 16 X 16. Only thing that was available.

It's a little big to setup alone, but it's doable. Bonus is that is covers even a mini-van completelly. And I have more shade on the sides. So it's all good

I had a 10 x 20 but it was heavy and a PITA to set up. Now use a 10 x 10 and it works great
