I'm trying to find something I can use at outdoor trials and can't figure out if I want to trade floor space for weather resistance. Hence the poll/thread LOL
I'm looking at both of these for $60:
Kelty Cabana
Coleman Instant Screen
The canopies (EZ Ups, the Coleman Screen, etc.) seem good for shade given the larger floorspace, but in rain they suck unless you buy panels/shade and I'm trying to do this for as little $ as possible.
That being said, I know the cabanas aren't as good for hot weather (less ventilation) but it can be completely closed up in rain.
So what are your thoughts?
