5.0 out of 5 stars perfect for it's purpose, July 9, 2006

I have a 2000 Honda Odyssey that is big enough for my wife and I to sleep in while camping, but not big enough to store all our camping gear at the same time. So, when I came across the Carport Deluxe in a catalog I knew I had found the answer to our problem. It was *perfect* on our first outing. At night we'd keep it down with all our gear inside the shelter and there was still tons of room (this thing is HUGE) for changing, or reading, or eating dinner, etc. During the day we'd put it up as an awning and it was great for shade (once again, it is much bigger than we expected, but that is a *good* thing). We've also used it for tailgate parties at Anaheim Stadium, and it can be used separate from the van as a shelter at the beach. It has performed perfectly for it's purpose.

4.0 out of 5 stars Plenty of shade, August 14, 2008

I've been a fan of Kelty products for years and had no reservations buying this one. The other poster is 100% correct in that this thing is huge! I ordered the medium one for my 1995 4Runner and it is much wider and longer then expected. With it "up" it was more stable then it looks but I would still be worried about leaving it up on a windy day.

The reason that I gave it 4 stars is that the first time setting it up was a PITA and the instructions are less then clear. It took my wife and I about 20 minutes to figure out what goes where to get it set up but this was after my first attempt at the beach with some wind.
I plan on having this for years and years and with Kelty's warranty I'll just head up the road to Boulder to get a replacement if I ever have any problems.
