I've bought this sun canopy as its currently half price at Mr T's!

http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.209-6912.aspx

I understand its not fire retardent but do you think it would be ok to cook under using a small propane camping ring - its placed on a kitchen stand with a guard around it.

I would also use a hotplate at times and also a kettle/Toaster

What do you think? Its a lot cheaper than an expensive canopy/extension!!

It does say it's not waterproof though, bear that in mind if you're hoping for shelter from the rain as well as sun. They may just be covering their backs by saying it's not, but all the same!

What you might find , is that it won't take much abuse. The seams are not tapped so would take it that it is not waterproof. At the end off the day , you only get what you pay for. My advice, get something desent and it will last you for years. You can pick a good second hand for £50 -£80............
