This might be a good solution for protecting equipment or building materials during your construction phase.

No tool frame erection is the only way to go . 15 min. Versus 2hr.for a bolt together frame..

I bought the one rockies posted the link to. I think there were more than 200 bolts. Anyway, it didn't survive the winter. I thought the peaked roof would shed snow. Nope. Next spring found a jumbled mass of plastic and bent tubing.

Ditto with the short lifespan. Mine lasted a few years. Then it was tarps tarps and more tarps.

Now if I could find one with better material. Those cheapies just don't last.

Too bad the winds off of lake ontario would kill this in 10 mins.

I've had good luck with my shelter logic 10 x12. 6 years old now and the only hole is in the roof where a tree branch fell and poked thru. But I don't have big snow loads and its not got full time sun exposure. The zippers still work too.
