I think you could use this gazebo without the canopy. There are 8 braces that meet in the center; and an additional 4 braces that form the upper roof that attach to the lower braces about 2/3rds of the way up. The gazebo can also be anchored to the ground with 12 tent stakes that are included (3 for each post). The canopy is attached to the frame with corner and side pockets over the frame, and velcro ties for halfway up the frame. hope this helps you.

It really is made for an easy up structure. Our easy up is not as tall as this one - but it works. I think of gazebo as an 8 sided thing - and no this has only 4 corners and so the answer would be no, it won't fit.

Not possible, it will pool even with a small amount of rain, and if you do push it off, watch out, water will come pouring through the grommeted holes that are in the canopy, and on more than one occasion I have drenched myself. Sure, it was my own fault, but if this gazebo didn't suck so badly I would not have had to deal with pools of water. I HATE THIS THING!

We have the roof on to provide shade, but it could be used without it. It's very light but sturdy.

Once you put the canopy on the frame and loop the straps over the eyebolts at the bottom of the legs, it will hold together very well. Mine blew off my deck in a strong windstorm because I didn't have it secured down. It stayed completely together in spite of rolling several times. Much easier putting up with 2 people, but you can do it alone.

Not sure, mine was purchased at Orchard Supply. And actually I haven't tried it yet. Since Orchard had sold out of the replacement canopies we decided to purchase this one so we could use it in a couple of years. As soon as the fall/winter winds start we take it off and just have the metal frame of the gazebo up. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The canopy comes with hooks that you attach to the ceiling and you hang the canopy from them....it doesn't actually lay on a bed frame...so sure you can use it without a canopy bed.

I would say no, it needs a canopy in order to use it. It does not replace a canopy , only extends the existing one.

Yes, I think you could use the cage without the stand. The stand is just a frame on wheels that the cage sets on.

Yes, you do not have to use the canopy. It was already too low for my 20mo old, so we don't use it.

no chance, its not wide or tall enough if you're looking to make it a canopy

I believe you can collapse the canopy to use it or not use it, but I am not 100% sure because I got it as a birthday gift for a child.

No, the shade must be put on a canopy to support itself because it's just a piece of cloth.

no, it requires the existing canopy to support, otherwise it will too soft to stay

Yes, the canopy is very easy to remove, but a little bulky and there is no good way to store if you take it off in the middle of a walk.

I did not realize a canopy could be gotten. If you find an answer to this question please publish in reviews or let me know personally. I would love to have one for my granddaughters. This is a great little wagon for lots of reasons.

Not easily and I would be concerned about the structure's strength without them. If you are concerned about heavy snow I would suggest disassembling the entire Gazebo.
