Hello Mike,
We are very sorry to see that you are not satisfied with your purchase.

It is recommended that the Canopy be anchored down while being used, and the cover is removed or the canopy be stored away when not being used or if there is inclement weather in the forecast as well. If you have any other questions or would like to discuss this in more detail, please feel free to contact us at 1-800-932-9344.
