The embassy II is the model I was talking about for $140 at Ocean State Job Lot, the model at Dick's and walmart is a different. Although i am going to look at Dick's for that bug screen - I here the bug screen fits different model's - as long as they are 10x10

The screen room we have for ours uses "d" rings which are attached around the top just "inside" and the room has small metal clips with a small hook that goes into the "d" rings. If other brands have a similiar setup it may work. Happy Trails Also We have the optional wieghts that were offered for ours all they seem to be are 20# weights with a slot that you set them around the legs they seem to work with a light breeze but if it gets to windy I just put it away to advoid the lost of it blowing away.

I have two EZ-up canopies. A 10X10 and a 6x6 and they work great. You need to anchor these down because they can turn into a sail if it gets windy, even more so if you add the side panels.

I agree with all of the posters who mention staking the things down. We have the cheap 12x12 from Dick's Sporting Goods. We've used it for 2 years an love it. I'm not sure about the EZ-UP brand, but our cheap model stakes for the legs and tie downs for the roof. We went to Mammouth Cave in KY with 2 other families who also had the same canpoy. We tied them all together to create "Shanty Town". We all staked our canopy legs, but I was the only one who also staked my top A huge sotrm blew through over night and tore up their 2 awnings but not mine. They had complained about my tie downs being a tripping hazard. After the storm blew threw they understood why I staked the top - The wind didn't ruin their canopies, the heavy rainfall did. Because the tops had play in them, the rain stretched the tops and created pools on the tops. The weight of the water bent/broke the canopy legs. Mine was completely fine.

Ok, so the roller bag my EZ-up came with ripped on the first use, so I needed warranty repair. I faxed my receipt and warranty form, and got no call back - I wrote to the "contact" on the website, inquiring about the bag. Within 10 minutes, the president of the company wrote back to me and assured me that he would look into my claim. Over the next day or so I got follow-up emails and phone calls from reps of EZ-up, within days a new bag was delivered to my house.
Thanks EZ-UP!!!!
