Found a Logo Brands tent at sams club that looks great but I am curious what people’s experience with their build quality and durability is. Right now we have a plain white EZ-Up that seems to be sturdy so we would be comparing it to that.
Logo Brands Tailgating Tent
- Thread starter wxman1
- Start date
We have one and have been happy with it. Case it came in fell apart after a couple seasons, but no issues with tent.
I'm thinking about adding one or two of those tents to our gear. The ones at Sam's Club have a few nice features, such as canvas that extends beyond the square formed by the posts, so you get extra coverage with less hardware. The one on display at the Ames Sam's Club looked pretty good to me. Logo is a trustworthy brand.
I have gone through 3 Logo brand tents over the last 10 years. The bags just plain suck, no two ways about that. We went to an army surplus store and bought a canvas bag for 10 bucks, improved the situation a ton.
You really have to be careful taking them down, the metal on the sides of the top of the tent will bend and break in the corners if you try to force them down.
We purchased a nicer version of this tent 3 years ago, and its been great. Got the tent, all the sides and case for around $1,000. All the sides zip together, so no air gets in, throw a heater in ours and even on the coldest games we are down to sweatshirts. Expensive but love it.

We have a Logo, decent tent. I like that I’ve been able to get parts without too much hassle, when it did break (once in the wind, once when some from our tailgate crew were “helping” and forced the frame into the bag...) Great customer service, too - when they didn’t have cross members for sale, the CSR called down to the warehouse and had a frame torn down into parts to fill my order. On our 2nd or 3rd bag, they’re not great.
Scheel's seems to have a decent deal on them right now. They are $150, grey frame, button press for both top and legs. If I get two years out of any pop-up tent, then I'm happy. I could not give a **** less about how the bag holds up. After the first use, I stop using the bag.
We got that model at Sams for the same price. Set it up yesterday and one of the collapsible arms was missing the bolt to connect it to the leg so I sent them a message today.
I bought an ISU 10x20 tent quite a few years ago and it is awesome. The frame is starting to take a crap which worries me. I did see that Walmart has cheaper ones for $200.
We've been through a few pop up tents over the years and quality wise they kind of are what they are. As long as you either stake it or weight it down and put it up/take it down properly you will get several years out of them. The wind is what will destroy these things but with proper reinforcement they hold up pretty well.

Have had this one for 10 years now. Made concrete PVC tubes and hang them off bungee cords for anchors along with tent anchors. We've been out in every game with this. Starting to show it's age but still a great canopy with sides! Love having the windows on two of the sides. Having a group of people makes set up fast and easy!

Well, duh on the group of people.
We (two of us) go early to get our spot. Everyone else meanders in later.
I just bought the Pagoda one from them a few weeks ago. Build quality seems decent, though the bag is already falling apart.
We got about 6 years out of our first ISU (Sams club) tent. This year we got a fresh one, and it looks much bigger with the extra coverage as noted above, hope it still fits like normal in "our spot". I also think the new buttons to raise and lower the four legs seemed bulky and fragile on the new one, but the previous tent treated us very well, so do feel got about the new one.
Well, duh on the group of people.
I've put it up by myself a couple of times, felt like I had walked about five miles after going to each corner umpteen times!! Firs tto get it spread out, next get the legs up, and then get the top locked in. We have 10 x 20 so it is a challenge.
Why is it when people put their sides on that they have a foot gap at the bottom? Most canopies have different height setting and plus people's feet get colder first. Just funny watching people trying to put sides up whether they are a side that fits or a tarp they are trying to wrap around it.
