The Garden Gazebo

Why do the canopy tops fail so often? In a nutshell' the canopy tops that come standard with 10x10 steel gazebos are tailored from very low grade poly-vinyl fabric.Gazebo manufacturers steer away from high grade UV resistant fabrics (i.e. Sunbrella)' to keep the price point on these gazebos attractively low.Unfortunately' these low grade canopy tops are subject a vast range of extreme weather: snow' ice' rain' UV sun rays' freezing temperatures' and heat.In a matter of just weeks' a combination of these weather conditions can weaken and make brittle the canopy tops on these gazebos.Water that is trapped from inadequate grommet drainage causes the canopy to sage and stretch.Discoloration and fading immediately follows.The final death nail?Wind.Wind will rip and tear the canopy into shreds.

I have 12x12 gazebo purchased from home depot.Was woundering if i can use wood post instead of poles in box.?

Bought gazebo for back yard.Would rather use wood post instead of weak poles that came with gazebo is it possible.If yes how would i go about putting it up with wood post?

I am guessing you got a relatively cheap tent-style thing, with metal poles for legs and the roof frame. Probably metal or plastic multi-connectors around the roof. If you go through the trouble of using wood posts, you'll basically need to rebuild the entire frame out of wood. This can be done, but the angles are certainly tricky. In short, it will be a lot of work, and if you are good, you'll end up with a nice frame underneath a mediocre canopy. If I were you, I'd stick with the metal poles, or return it for something more substantial.
