Definitely buy the wooden pole ones. I thought I'd buyt the metal ones last year (they're telescopic and have nylon fabric not canvas) and they were rubbish. Not particularly cheap either. Dumped them during the week we were using them as they bent in the wind.

Getting some wooden ones this year, assuming they haven't all sold out after everyone's recommendation!
