what is the up and down time for putting up the canopy and taking it down?

If you have 4 people, it takes less than 2 minutes to bring it up and 1 minute to bring it down. Very simple to use. Can be done with 2 people but more tricky trying to bring in 4 corners.

By myself it's no more than 5 minutes up / 5 minutes down. With help, much quicker

I only purchased the canopy last month. I have not used it during the summer months.

It takes me about 5 to 10 minutes to take it down and put it up. I use boat winches with d rings to pull it up and down. I put 4 posts up with pulleys on it. It works great once you get it set up. I hope this helps

it wasn't designed to adjust, but you can un-velcro the canopy and lower it. I only needed to do that once, the canopy is really large and has great coverage.

The canopy is separate. Instructions can be found here: http://www.kingcanopy.com/images/FestivalAltshade.InstrEnglish.pdf

The canopy can be positioned either up or down as per the instructions but does not actually work or move..thanks

It's fairly easy to install and take down, maybe 10 minutes both ways top, so you could do that. But in general that seems like it would be a pain, I ended up leaving mine up! It looks pretty cool too :)

I would personally say,about 300 to 400 pounds. To much weight will loosen the rails,making your canopy wiggle. Don't go by my response,look for another source. I hope this response helps.

The canopy should be put up with a slight angle so water may run off. Eventually water will pass through it but at first it will pool if it doesn't have a certain slope to it.

With 2 people yes but it takes some time. I wouldn't want to do it every day. If you collapse it with the canopy on the frame to make it go faster you can tear it so I wouldn't do it. We leave ours up all summer and only lower it down to lowest position when a storm comes through.

It has a set run time from when float goes down after has engaged in the up position

I do not have the instructions but putting it up takes about 20 minutes each spring and fall. I purchased eye-hooks and turnbuckles.

Once you have the frame up, you put on the canopy, followed by the side nets. Setting it up is actually quite fast and easy.

It's really quick with 2 people. I'd say about 30 min for one person in daylight with no wind. Much of that will be fixing something that fell out or moved on one side when you were working on the other. Even 1 adult and a kid to hold things would be much better than alone.

This canopy is fairly easy to assemble, but it would still take a couple of people to get in place. My husband and I had no problems, but it takes two.

The first time, you'll have to put the canopy on the frame. After that, you can leave it on.
