What is the canopy (top) made of? Does it have reinforcing strands in it?

Not sure of the material. But I think it is some synthetic like nylon. There are reinforcing braces all along the top just below the canopy. and there are braces leading up to the top. I use mine at least once a week, and find it great,, easy to put up and down,myself!. Also it is not to heavy for me to carry in it's own bag. It is not a thick braced heavy duty tent, but it is very worth the price!

It has the grommets. I put it up from my fence to the pergola I'm in The middle of building for now for shade for my garden. It's nice for the price

this is the URL for it on amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004E4CUBK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . it's a nice canopy just make sure you lower it on windy days because they don't sell replacement parts.

Yes, it does...however, we live in MN and because of rain/bad weather, we had to replace the canopy EVERY year! the structure is still good after 6 years.

When I purchased it, it only came with the canopy top and the insect screening. There was no solid canvas that could be zipped up.

a heavy vinyl, woven, very sturdy, mine have been up for 4-5 years. if alot of wind may get small tears that can be patched with product sold online. Provide much shade, very happy with product.

It's a plastic composite of some sort...very durable and thick. It has provided just the right amount of shade but still allows sunshine brightness. It's closer to a Sunbrella-type fabric used on patio umbrellas, but with a more open weave. That's the best that I can tell you...someone else may be able to give you more technical information.

They a strips of fabric to create a sleeve for the tubing frame. The canopy i received had only green fabric, let's hope yours will be the same too.

They are two separate parts. The canopy attaches to the frame by Velcro and by hooks on elastic bands.

We have the canopy too. Comes in different colors. We've had this for over a year now and it's by far the best we've had.

Its a large rectangle 20 feet long by 16 wide. It is actually two piece sown together down the middle. The drawback to this is that the weight of the canopy makes it sag a bit in the middle. Especially after rain. The trick I've found is to purchase the proper mounting hardware so you can really get maximum tension to the posts (and use something that won't bend or flex, like a pipe or big tree. I also ran a 5th cable under the middle just to hold the dang thing up. We're quite happy with it. It does let some light through, so don't expect 100% shade.

It only comes with the tarp for the side walls. It does not come with any poles or the canopy on top...

Good question. The top of this canopy is a thick canvas and the base is connected by bolts. Though it has held up for me very well over the past two years, I doubt this will fair well under snow loading.

No it is an attached canopy. I usually just bring a little blanket to drape over the top and hang down in front if needed.

some sort of poly fabric. great stuff however, third year in the florida sun and is holding up quite well.

Sorry to say that it doesn't. I have to say that this canopy is extremely thin, and the grommets are in the wrong place. We had a downpour, and because there was no way to drain the water, the velcro tabs tore. I would never buy this product again.
