Gala Tent Reviews

What I wanted at the price I wanted&delivered in good time

I finally plunged in and bought the 40mm gazebo with side walls.When the boxes several of them arrived I was amazed just how big and how many there were, they arrived well packed and clean, and as promised on web site they did arrive the very next day, I was kept informed by email throughout the buying and delivery procedure, the staff were very polite and knowledgable. The gazebo although I'd seen it many times at carouse shows was much heavier than I thought, this may not be such a bad thing as it will help in adverse weather,Unpacking was easy and the frame comes in the supplied bag, the bag itselve initially looks very robust with a zip and belt buckles to hold everything to gether.Putting the fame up was simple, you need two people,you halve errect it then put the canopy onextend the frame, then pull the canopy tight, extend the legs job done,I ordered side walls and bottom rails for ours the bottom rails were a pain to fit couldn't get the holeas to line up for the bolts, this was because my lawn is not perfectly flat, if yours is flat should not be so difficult.The side windows just fasten with Velcro, I got windows in mine which makes all the difference, a little clostrophobic without.You have the option to chose different colour side walls I got yellow same as canopy and two taupe a kinda cream colour.I also got sandbag weights for the legs, they only do these in bliue for some reason, I didn't know this when I purchased them, had I known i would not have bought the, also on reflection I wouldn't buy them again they spoil what is otherwise a really nice gazebo, the steel weights are in my opinion massively expensive, but would be a better option.All in I'm pleased with the gazebo, I haven't used it yet other than erect it to have a look how it went to gether.I couldn't get the canopy into the pocket on the bag for the frame, I rang Gala they tell me it will go in but at the moment I'm at a loss to know how, they are no sips on the pocket for the canopy and I suppose somehow it rolls up and slides in however this pocket must be nearly 1Mt long at a guess and I couldn't get it in, I'm not a novice when it comes to doing things, I'm keen diy and also electrician/ mechanic very handy, however first time at trying it beat me, maybe the canopy will soften with use and make it easy to fit in pocket, a zip either side would help.Because of the last issue I've only given 4 stars, I wouldn't let this put you off,It's expensive at £571 for a gazebo, hopefully it'll pass down a couple of generations and recoup the cost.

Excellent service. Very expensive for a bit of elastic and plastic.

Brilliant service. Very fast delivery and the tent looks lovely. Very pleased

Fantastic service. Very helpful advice on phone. It is a big tent. Came shrink wrapped on a pallet. No advance notice of delivery, luckily I was at home when it arrived.When erected the label letters on the tubing is not visible, so errors can not be seen. Our mistake, many hands trying to 'Help' The next time we put it up we will have to colour code the different elements. For these 2 reasons only 4 stars.

Pretty happy with my tent - the frame and canopy both seem sturdy without being too heavy, and the frame pops up with a good action. I like the fact that the frame comes with a case on wheels as it is fairly heavy to carry.The only reason not to give 5 stars is that on putting the tent up for the first time I tied it down with guy ropes and one of the eyelets came away from the corner of the canopy. I wasn't using excessive force and certainly nothing like the force that even a mild gust would have put on the rope, so this was disappointing, but other than that it seems very good quality.

The gazebo, half walls and curtains look amazing! Had lots of admiring comments from other stallholders, as well as customers. The banner wrap worked great, really easy to put on and off - with at least two people! Be warned the steel frame is VERY heavy - but strong. The trade table worked brilliantly too, giving a very professional finish.

Gazebo cast iron weights , good product and a strong, simple solution. If any improvement possible then curving the floor side of the handle mould would allow picking back up easier.

Using the same structure as my Gala 4mx6m PVC and 6mx12m Poly/PVC, the 4mx10m PE was lighter, and easy for just 3-4 people to erect and dismantle for our fete. Met the requirements in full.

I bought sandbar type weights that wrap around the Gazebo legs. These arrive promptly which impressed me. The quality looks excellent with a sip securing the sand (not supplied) inside the the bags. They were easy to fill and on a windy weekend kept the gazebo secure on a concrete surface, although I would recommend 2 sets, 1 for each leg.

Very good quality product (small issue with a tear in roof) but fantastic customer service and quick turn-around

1. erection- for first time installers- more detailed instructions would be useful. Info from video of interest but without wifi at site- only relying on memory.2. dismantling- OK3. packaging- OK for delivery but not for long term storage. Somewhat disappointed to note that admin/packaging charge of £10- applies even when purchasing 2 bags (and same cost for complete marquee?)for the canopy.As this item was not provided in initial purchase package and its purchase was decided upon after receipt of boxes and true appreciation of need for bags. This item has been addressed by contact by telephone- worthwhile doing in the event of further queries/concerns as the customer services person was understanding.4. would still recommend purchase for others as equipment appears to be sturdy.5. drying of canopies/side covers- very necessary and thus if marquee left overnight- ensure flow of air to assist in keeping internal surfaces drier.

the gazebos is a good product , unfortunately the carry case is not , the bolts to secure the wheels are useless

The help on the phone with the order was great. Delivery no problem. The quality of the product id brilliant good and sturdy, however we found the instruction to simplistic and we had to find someone who had experience of the pop up tents to help. Very pleased overall

Good quality and price and excellent service
