This document discusses replacing the canopy tops on steel gazebos. It explains that the standard canopy tops included with many inexpensive gazebos are made from low-grade fabric that quickly deteriorates due to weather. This leaves homeowners with an eyesore. Garden Winds has developed replacement canopy tops designed to fit 90% of gazebos and made from higher-grade UV-resistant fabric to last longer. They can be contacted for purchasing a replacement top.

Here is what usually happens next. The unsuspecting gazebo owner heads to the store to buy a replacement
canopy for the gazebo. He becomes quite dismayed to find out that the retailer does not carry a replacement
top. Without much avail, the retailer tells the gazebo owner to call the manufacturer. The problem? The
retailer or owner often does not know the name of the manufacturer because the box or manual has been
trashed, or the retailer purchased it from some unknown distributor with no paper trail. The owner is left
stranded in a search for a product that is hard to find and a gazebo that is need of desperate repair for the
party next weekend. What now?
