I purchased the EzyFast Ultra Compact Backpack Canopy mostly to use for a sun shelter while participating in summer car show events. I have found it to be a pretty well designed and engineered little canopy albeit with its inherent limitations. The positives are lightweight, compactness, set-up, and quality. This canopy is very lightweight; - I weighed mine to be a mere 16.5 lbs. (compared to 40-60lbs for most 10 ft canopies) It is also very compact and portable, and comes in a sturdy bag with shoulder straps and measures only 28 ½ inches long x 7 inches x 7 inches.After a few practice sessions, a single person can set this up pretty easily in a little over 5 minutes. The most difficult part (like all canopies) is getting the expanding scissor-action top fully spread by one person. By moving from diagonal corner to diagonal corner and gently lifting on the top braces while it spreads and the spring loaded red corner locks click into position. The cover fits tightly over the expanded frame and secures with a Velcro patch at each corner. You then move from corner to corner expanding the legs, which consist of 3 sections each with spring loaded lock buttons. The drop down half-back panel can be used to best block the sun, and once set up this canopy can be easily lifted, moved around by a single person if you desire. The shade afforded by this 6ft x 6ft canopy is perfect for two chairs, a cooler and small items. Four metal tent pegs are included to secure each corner, as well as weight bags if you want to use them.The negatives with this canopy are the result of trade-offs required to achieve the easy portability, weight, size and set-up. The legs are necessarily less substantial than with a heavy-duty 10ft canopy. The smallest extension section at the bottom measures 5/8 inches x 20 inches long. That’s about the size of a small finger. However, the tube is square and a decent gauge of metal and acceptable if reasonable care is taken. The topmost tube measures a full 1-inch. A minor annoyance for me also is the entrance height of 5 foot. This is no problem once inside where there is a 6 ft 5 inch ceiling, however every visitor has to duck to enter or exit. Another 6-8 inches here would be perfection.Taking it down is a quick chore consisting of pushing in the spring-loaded buttons on the legs, peeling off the top, pressing 4 red lock buttons on the corners, and it almost automatically folds up to its diminutive size. Always place the carry bag over the folded frame with feet at the zipper end and next time you use it you just set it down, lift the bag up and away and you’re set.I’ve seen no claims about rain proofing, but the blue nylon fabric is silver coated inside and appears to be similar to a waterproof tent rain fly. During a simple test at home, water peddled on the fabric and the underside remained dry. The fabric seams are all double-stitched. I have not yet experienced high winds so cannot address that issue with this canopy.Would I purchase again? Probably, as I have no use for a heavy cumbersome 10-footer and have not found a better compact of this quality.
