Anyone buy or build a nice sukkah that didn’t break the bank ? What’s the best way to make a sukkah on a budget ?

We have this for the past few year but my husband doesn’t like it , he finds it extremely annoying to put together , and he’s very handy. It’s also starting to go as we’ve had it for awhile

This is what we were thinking but I was thinking of some nice material as tarp is ugly, any nice waterproof material I can get ?

The 2 yard (60 x 72) pieces can work for a 6 foot tall sukkah from top to bottom 72 inches.
You probably need 7 ft to 8 ft?

We're not usually home for succos but was home last year and used it. Sh said it was super easy to put together (he is very handy) and it worked really well bh. We didn't have any issues except I would've liked a bigger succah but since I was never home before and didn't know if we were going to be home again we didn't bother buying a bigger one.

A friend of mine once shared that she did heavy shower curtains when she was on a budget in a new house. Claimed it was easy and good looking.

I believe bingo has newer versions of their Magic Sukkah. We bought the 2023 version last year and was cheap and easy to put together.

I ordered custom waterproof banners for the wall. They look so pretty, and they are easy to store. you just roll them up.
