The chic erecting tents are very practical: They offer protection from the sun and rain, and some of the frames can simply be left outside in winter. Many of them can also be stowed away so that you can use them flexibly; for example on holiday at the campsite or for the next garden party.
The best pavilions
the comparison winner, the pop-up pavilion from ABC Canopy measures 3 x 3 meters and scores not only with its stability but also with its simple construction. The roof and side walls are made of polyester fabric, the frame is made of steel. Overall, the workmanship is neat and valuable. However, the instructions are missing, which makes packing up after use relatively complicated. With a price of around 240 euros (to Amazon)the pavilion is relatively cheap.
It’s a bit cheaper here price tip from Kronenburg. The folding pavilion also comes with the dimensions 3 x 3 meters and only costs around 160 euros (to Amazon). Here, too, the frame is made of steel and the fabric for the roof and side walls is made of polyester. The folding pavilion can be used flexibly just like the comparison winner and is easy to set up. Contrary to what is advertised, however, the pavilion is not waterproof, since water penetrates the seams, which are only taped instead of welded, when it rains continuously.
It’s different with her Luxury alternative, the Toolport garden pavilion Alu Deluxe. As the name suggests, the linkage here is made of aluminum. The roof is made of polycarbonate, the side panels with a double rail system and zipper are made of polyester with a PA coating. In other words: this pavilion is really waterproof, can be closed completely and even withstands hailstorms. However, since the construction is lengthy and complex, the pavilion is more suitable for a year-round place. You can also attach the pergola to a foundation using the concrete anchors supplied. But the chic pavilion also has its price: From about 1,075 euros (to Amazon) you get the version with 3 x 3 meters.
