    As the owner of an EZ-UP, I certainly hope that this is not true.
    Why look down on such a nice, simple, inexpensive, durable, portable
    little shelter? 

    Why shell out over a thousand dollars on some canvas palace that
    takes an hour to set up, weighs 178 pounds, leaks when it rains, and
    gets mildewed, frayed, and smelly? 

    Personally, I like the neat, uniform look of shows where most
    exhibitors use EZ-UPs. Having more "standardized" shelters means
    that the exhibitors' work, not their tents, takes center stage -
    customers will focus more on the uniqueness of your work and your
    displays and not think twice about your tent, which, when you get
    right down to it, is just there to define your space and give you
    some shade. 

    In addition, the folks at EZ-UP seem quite willing to stand behind
    their products: when the stitching on the handle of my roller bag
    came undone, it was replaced with a brand-new bag, no questions
    asked. All I had to do was fill out an online form and send a scan of
    the receipt, and they didn't even make me return the damaged bag.
    This is the sort of service that merits repeat business. [Usual
    disclaimers.] 

    Cheers, and happy booth planning,
