    tractor supply Shelter logic brand "garage in a box" is what i used for about 3 yrs. it held 18 in. of snow and 50 mph thuder-storm winds just fine, the fabric finally dryrotted and tore along the peak of the building. i sold the frame to a friend 2 yrs ago, he bought a replacement tarp for it through shelter logic for $120 and its still standing at his place.

    as mentioned above the anchor kit that come with it sucks, get some mobile home anchors or "jet stakes" they use for concrete forms and you will be waaay better off. also whichever one you get buy a bunch of cheap 1 in ratchet straps and brace the hoops that make up the top, i used straps and made an "X" across each section between the hoops and it made a huge difference in how it handled high winds. before i did that a 30mph or higher wind gust would flex the sides of the building.
