Nice portable screen house

[Big Air]

We just bought the 16 sport and I would like a quick set up screen house that doesn't take up too much room when folded up. Any ideas? Thanks

This should do you…
Coleman - 10 ft. x 10 ft. Screened Canopy

Should be able to find one at Walmart, Cabela's, or Amazon.

We have the Wenzel and I think it's the 14' X 12' shown at Amazon. It fits over the top of a picnic table very nicely. It needs to be supported by some shock cording if there's a strong wind, otherwise it's fine. Instructions say it takes two to set it up but I've always done it alone. Then again, I'm a resourceful fella I got it as a service award and I didn't keep the box, but it looks to be the same one, other than color. I'm posting the Amazon pic and one from our trip to Florida.

The entire enclosure and poles fit into one bag and the enclosure in the other bag. At Amazon it says it's 22 lbs, I would have thought it lighter. The weight is all in the steel poles. It says not to cook inside but I use my Coleman 3 burner and coffee pot inside. I take my laptop out there when the weather's nice and fully enjoy not having bugs interrupt me.

Clam Corporation 9281 1660 Mag Screen House, 140 by 140-Inch

I'm eyeing the SportCraft 8 ft. Pop Up Screen Room With Floor at Costco for $90.


There's gotta be a catch!

On the other end, we love the PahaQue Screen Room. It's not the fastest to set up, but easy enough and can be moved around easily once it's put-together. The straight walls keep out rain and the shades are great for intense sun.

I've been looking at a Clam Screen Room on Amazon. Has anyone had experience with one?

Have the coleman 10x10 that Protagonist shared. It is quick to set up in just a few minutes. I bought one that was horrible to set up before- threw it out!

We have the woodland screen house from LL Bean. IMO easy to store and to set up

I just picked up Coleman's 11 x 11 at my local Costco on sale now $20 off, cost me $69.99.

Ron, I have it and love it. It's everything they claim-easy to set up in minutes by one person, very well constructed. It's is slightly longer than our Tundra truck bed when folded/in the travel bag, so it rests at an angle when transporting. I was able to use a coupon code from an independent dealer last summer when I got it, so it came out to about $225 total, delivered, no tax.

The dimensions on Amazon

The product dimensions collapsed in the carry bag: 73" x 10" x 12".

Ron we have a Clam. LOVE IT! I highly recommend it. One person set up in less than 2 minutes. We also bought the shade flaps. Velcro and hooks and they are on. We went through quite a rain in OK, and most of the area was dry except where we didn't have flaps.

Boy, lots to choose from. I watched the video on the Clam. The setup is fast. I can vouch for the Coleman instant screen room models mentioned. Here is a video for it- looks scary when they first unfold but not really bad.

They are also very quick to set up. Once it is unfolded on the ground the poles bend open at the corner, extend and pop in place. The process is to walk around and do all four. At that point it is done aside from wind support lines if needed. They claim 60 second setup. Alone it is more like 2-3 minutes for me counting unbagging. It is the size of a medium sized camp chair folded and bagged. From what I can tell between the two (the Clam and the Coleman) they are both quick setup. You may need the larger Coleman model if you want a picnic table inside. Either one is nice. The Coleman is about a third of the cost of the Clam. I do like the idea of the shade flaps on the Clam though, if needed. The Coleman gives you two exits.

Thank you for all the great feedback on screen rooms.
