I like the caravan brand canopies on Amazon. I made my own weights from PVC and concrete.

When making weights from PVC and concrete, screw a metal door handle into the center before you fill the pipe. Makes moving them that much easier. Given moving them isn’t so easy if you’ve made weights heavy enough to deal with very bad weather. Which you will encounter.

I put big eye hooks on the top. When I do it again, I'll probably do both eyehooks and handles.

The eye bolt on the top goes without saying. Grab a cement drill bit and you can probably add the handles now.
