My wife occasionally participates in regional craft/festival shows and sells products she makes. For several years we used a hand-me-down 10x10' tent a family member gave us. It was pretty heavy duty and at times a beast to put up. I suspect it is at least 15 years old and hoping modern ones are lighter smoother to put up.

The fabric canopy on ours needs replacing so we think it is a good time to buy a whole new unit. We live in a small town so can't shop these in person although I suspect some are very flimsy and others might be adequately solid. We would like one where canopy sides are available and attach as optional.

Anybody shopped these recently and have any recommendations?
 
EZ-UP ES-100 nice quality for the price, available in multiple colors, free banner, roller bag, sides, and if you need them all parts are easy to order online.
 
Ditto.

Years ago we got a 10x10 canopy from Wall World + the full walls and screen walls that zip on for our camping arsenal. Glad we did because the next year it rained like crazy, so we put our 7x7 tent under the canopy & zipped the walls up. We stayed amazingly dry considering the deluge we tried to sleep through.

Totally agree on this - don't skimp on the $79 deals at Dicks. They don't last, and collapse if you sneeze wrong. I have an EZ Up from 2005(ish) that gets used maybe 10-12 times a year, still close to brand new.

Also agree with using it as the belt and suspenders approach to camping:
