Has anyone used portable screen room that is easy to assemble. Any suggestions would be appreciated

I got one at Wal-Mart that uses poles with shock cords and was pretty easy to set-up. Plus the poles break down into small sections all connected by the cord to make for easy storage.

Just returned the EZ-Up we bought through LL Bean.  Should be called EZ-to-break-apart.  Luckily we bought it from LL Bean so stuffing the mangled mess into its carrying case and returning it was not a problem.  My suggestion is stay away from EZ-Ups.  I believe LL Bean has found the same to be true as they have discontinued carrying the EZ-Up line.

I'm bummed to hear the EZup was such junk.  I still have the 10x10 canopy that we bought as a store return about 9 years ago.  Finally bought a new top for it earlier this year.  

My brother purchased the competing look-a-like brand of canopy and what a piece of junk that is!

Saw some folks setup in a campground today. They had their portable screen room set up around the cg picknic table and had turned that whole space into their outdoor kitchen.  It was pretty cool!

There are a lot of people that have EZ-ups and have had good luck.

I have never owned an EZ-up, but always thought they looked too light and thin metal-ed for me. We have had great luck with our Quik Shade. It is heavy, but it hasn't broken in about 4 or 5 years of service!

Granted, it is just the top part, but we have purchased the screen panels and side panels. Have not had the opportunity to use it yet, but those parts are available.
