I have the 12 ft. frame and use a 780 on it. It wasn't too bad to put up (my husband would disagree), but I would never put up and then take down! Once mine was up, it was up for good. You need at least 3 - 4 feet on all sides so you can walk around the frame. The poles do not collapse or fold, they are fitted together with an inside coupler, if that is the correct term. It also took us about 4 hours to put together, there are a lot of bolts to hold it together. It took both of us to put it together along with the videos on youtube.
