KING BIRD 3-4 Bow Bimini Boat Top Cover Sun Shade Boat Canopy Waterproof 1 Inch Stainless Aluminum Frame 46" Height with Rear Support Poles and Storage Boot 6 Colors -5 Sizes

So far, perfect for the price and what we needed. Easy to install, provided a great amount of shade as I took it out for the first time today. We didn't exceed 25 mph on the boat while the canopy was set and seemed sturdy enough. It is possible to fold down all the way provided you remove the back screws for the back support posts (which is easily done by hand since it's a twist knob and no tools required). It's nice to store the canopy in the built in storage, but I admit I struggle a bit each time I want to pack it up (still haven't perfected it, but that's more on me. The only concern I have at this point is its durability. While installing I noticed small holes where seems are for sleeves of poles. I'm hoping this doesn't spread. I did take boat out and seemed to hold up. I put pictures up of this in case you are interested. BTW, ordered the 4 bow 85-90 in 54" high so we can walk under it easily.

Great product easy to assemble and install

Fits and works great. We use these bimini tops on all of our rental boats. Nice integrated zipper wrap, nothing to lose. Durable, easy to unfurl, even novice renters can do it.

Good deal for the price, looks good, medium easy to install, the instructions are more focused on the 4 bow and mine was the 3 bow but not a big deal just could be improved. Once installed it functions great, I took the boat up to about 25-30 mph and it was fine. I take it all the way down when I trailer the boat.

NICELY BUILT. TOOK TIME TO PUT TOGETHER, BUT FINISHED TOP LOOKS FANTASTIC ON OUR 17' RUNABOUT. WOULD BUY AGAIN.

First things first... This kit includes the entire bimini frame! It's so hard to find a product description that has the frame included.It's very easy to assemble, especially if your boat already has the deck hardware from a previous bimini top.First, lay the frame arms out and attach together at the bottom. You want to have two long frames on the outside, with two short frames in between. It's important that the mounting horns on the long frames are pointing away from each other. See the pictures.I used the included masking tape to bind the four pieces together, then lay them on the boat and mount to the bottom pivot.Them simply bring the top bows up and attach them to one set of side arms, and add the fabric.If you're setting the top up to fold down forward, you want to install the fabric with the "front" label at the rear. This enables the storage pouch to work properly.Also I'd recommend that you ensure all 8 push buttons on the top bows are fully popped out, or that top bow will try to fall out when you least need it to.Fantastic value on a great product!

Excellent top for my 16 ft Xpress

Great looking Bimini. like everyone says, the assembly instructions are terrible. Great video on YouTube that makes assembly and installation a snap. I really like everything about it EXCEPT, that after installation and as I was standing there admiring it, I noticed that some of the piping was not attached (see pictures). I wanted to contact customer service but there is no contact info listed on anything in the box, packaging or assembly instructions. My only options through Amazon was to return item. That means totally taking off the boat, disassemble everything, package everything back up and driving 45 miles to the nearest town that has a ups store. That's if I can somewhat repair the box it came in. I would think if there was a phone number for KingBird, I could call them and they could send a replacement top. I would send back the defective one so they could show it to quality control and everyone would be happy. I know a review like this won't solve anything but just letting everyone know to really look over everything before installation. Kind of guess I shouldn't have expected much more at the price.
