3-in-1: Tent, Screen Room, Sunshade
The GOzeebo is SylvanSport’s answer to the screen room. Not content to just make a mesh tent, the GOzeebo has been designed to serve as a large family tent for car camping, a screen room to keep you comfortably separated from annoying bugs or a portable open air gazebo when you just need a little shade. All with the versatility, quality and design that you expect from SylvanSport. So, rain or shine, when you need a large, easy to use shelter, the GOzeebo is there for you either by itself or attached to your GO Adventure Camper!

Almost returned it on the first attempt to set it up. I got it set up but it was very, very challenging. Was talking with a friend about the difficulty and he set it up, but with the same difficulty as I. We both thought it needed to stretch out, so we left it set up for several days. We were right.
I have taken it down and set it up by myself six or seven times since then and each time about fifteen minutes to complete the task. It’s actually easy once it does get that stretch.
There were instructions inside the plastic shipping label, but I didn’t know that until I had figured it out on my own.
My last set up was on the beach with about a fifteen mile an hour breeze. Set it up, again by myself, in under fifteen minutes. Then the wind kicked up to a steady 25 MPH and serious thunder storms the next 48 hours. I had it staked down, but did tie it to my GoEasy Boat/Kayak Trailer and put all my gear inside. Nothing ripped or tore, not a drop of water got in from the rain other than when i had to open it up to let some air get through.
To set it up:
Stake it down on all four corners first
Put the two dark grey rods through the roof sleeves, don’t connect them just yet
Connect each of the orange rods into one long piece, and arrange it so that it’s curved as it would be once installed. It should look like a big arch. Do this with all four.
Now slide the orange rods through the wall sleeves, don’t connect them just yet
The red tips should all be sitting next to the grey rods at this point
Work your way around the tent and insert the red tips into the grey rods, the fourth one will be the hardest
Now start on any corner and insert the stainless pins/clips into the ends of the orange rods and work your way around the tent, again that last one will be the most difficult one
The tent will now be standing up
If necessary, go into the center of the tent and push/pop (if it’s inverted) that up and it will tighten everything up.
Now attach the black clips to the orange rods to tighten it up even more.
Attach the additional tie-downs as necessary: they connect to those little flappy things that are about eye level.
The outer zipper is for attaching to the GoEasy trailer or the additional awnings.
Hope this helps. I’ve learned to love mine, but it took some effort.

We’ve used our Gozeebo once But have set it up a couple times. Our only issue is that if you aren’t going to provide set up instructions with it, have them on line or provide a YouTube video

We love our Go camper. Have had three wonderful camping trips since we picked it up less than a month ago. Well done designers! BUT we are so disappointed in the Gozeebo because it is so difficult to set up. We have 44 years experience of camping 🏕 we have used lots of different camping gear. The difficult set up with the Gozeebo is due to the difficulty with the poles. Has someone found an easy approach to set up? Please share. Sylvansport do a setup video… It’s a great unit once set up.

Came with no instructions but was easy to figure out.Alot of space inside 7 people hudlled up in it during a brief rainstorm. Only negative wish it came with the clear plastic window like the go.

We used the GOzeebo for the added sleeping space for our son and daughter-in-law, and their black lab. Very roomy with plenty of room to stand up comfortably. The easy access from each side was a nice bonus and made it very convenient for entry. Really nice bonus room to go with the GO.

The GOzeebo worked great for camping with our son and daughter-in-law, as well as there black lab. It is very roomie and the easy access from every side was an unforeseen bonus. The GOzeebo also offers plenty of headroom and is a great addition for camping with the GO.

Are there instructions for setting up the Gozeebo. We tried setting it up this afternoon and could not get the roof pole into the red holder.

Very well done. Solid construction so far. Thick, robust fabric, tight construction fitting… I think the Gozeebo will do well for us.

Purchased our trailer with Gozeebo in early July 2019.
-Gozeebo supposed to arrive in a week or two from our original purchase date.
-Called to check with our supplier about the Go-Zeebo. Was told it would be longer. Maybe August. We had to call for an update.
-Called in August around the date of supposed shipping. Was told it wouldn’t be August but perhaps October.
-We reached out on Oct 15. I was told there is a “Firm delivery timeline of January 2020.”
-Sent an email December confirming our delivery of the unit. Their response was that the “timeline has just shifted to February now…” Once again, no courtesy update was provided. All updated was by us requesting the information.
-January 2nd another email was sent to confirm our order. “We are now looking at March.”
Assuming we actually receive the unit in March, that will be 8 months or roughly 240 days past the original date we were offered.
This has been incredibly disappointing. Had we received correct information from the beginning or if they had been proactive in communicating the delays I would have a different rating. But the fact that no one seems to have the right answer and we have to dig for it is incredibly disheartening. So disappointing.

Hi Randy, I understand your frustration. Trust me, we’d like to have them in as well. The timeline adjusts as we receive more information from our supplier. You will be receiving your Free GOzeebo once we have them in stock, and we’ll notify you once it goes out. I apologize again for the lack of updates on the shipping timeline. We work really hard to make sure our customers have the best experience possible. – Katlyn, SylvanSport Customer Service

We also really like the Gozeebo. We were in a torrential rain that had tents and screen rooms destroyed. We were dry and secure. It held up to winds that flattened other tents. We just wish it would stop raining on us!

We love our GOzeebo, have used it twice and held up to high winds and even a hail storm. It takes about 15 minutes to put up and like the GO, will probably take less time with practice.
