Sent my lovely hubby to Aldi to pick one of these up for our camping trip next weekend. There's a big group of us and don't fancy being crammed inside one tent on an evening if we have poor weather.

Has anyone else tried one of these?

Oh - didn't realise the link was so old - popped into Aldi last weekend to see what camping bargains they had and unexpectedly spotted it!!

Maybe they've had them hanging around since last July? Anyway I only paid £15 for it and it's huge - can't wait til next weekend to test it :-)

I got one last year and only just used it a few weeks ago - it was fantastic at creating a much needed shade.

Got one from last year and it is great for providing shade when you have guests around for a party.

I would not keep it up all night though, in case of strong winds etc...

They do look really great. I meant to get one last year, but it completely slipped my mind. Maybe they'll have them again soon and i will definately get one.

we have a Coleman canopy which does the same job. I think they're £29.99 at Argos.

I brought one of these from aldi recently (September 2016) i cant get the bloody thing up 😂😂, we wanted a gazebo for a bit of cover from sun and somewhere as a entrance for tent but could only find this as it was on offer of 9.99 bargin, well the instructions arent really that clear but i am a beginner, plus trying to put it up in the wind i thought i was going to end up in the stream across the field 😂😂, we have decided if it does rain we will use it as a extra layer for the tent 😂😂
