Guarantee/Warranty

Our weights are hand-made and packaged with great care. We hope that you will take as much concern in caring for them as we have. Although they come to you zinc coated to inhibit rust, an occasional polish with car wax will enhance the look of the steel.

We are not responsible for changes in the appearance, damage or injury due to the inappropriate use of the weights beyond the minimum number required or for greater wind speeds than set forth in this website.

Testimonial

"Having the weight spread out underneath my tent legs has made a huge difference to stability; it's like my booth is glued to the ground! I would never go back to using hanging weights."
- Jennifer G. - Pastel Artist, Florida

"My Happifeet™ were put to the test the first time out of the box and were great. We had a pretty good rainstorm roll through and the weights kept the tent right in place."
- Michael M. - Tailgater, Connecticut

"We have been through 70-80 mph winds in Florida and Iowa and our Happifeet™ held our booth solid, while other booths around us were not so lucky."
- Karen H. - Artist, Iowa


 

Product Details

Happifeet™ Weight Systems are designed to support 10' x 10' or 10' x 20' outdoor display tents/booths with round or square legs. No special tools are needed for set-up. The standard set of Happifeet™ includes everything you need to get started. We also offer add-on weights, levelers, and ratchet straps for further protection.

Happifeet™ allows for precise distribution of weight on the ground, making it nearly impossible for the tent to move or be lifted by high gusts of wind. In fact, our tests show that Happifeet™ can keep EZUP tents/booths secure in gusts up to 60 miles per hour! Check out a video of this on the Gallery page!

Standard Weights
Attractive and functional, each 32-pound solid-steel plate is extremely durable on concrete, asphalt, and brick surfaces and can hold your tent/booth safely on a windy day. Each standard set of Happifeet™ (four weights) also includes the thumbscrews, nuts, and eyebolts that securely hold your tent/booth in place. Thumbscrews are easily tightened by hand to secure the tent/booth to the weights.

Add-on Weights
For added precaution against very windy days, we recommend our optional 16-pound add-on weights. These can easily be attached to our standard 32-pound weights using bolts, increasing the weight to 48 pounds per tent leg. These are required for tubular-framed tents such as Trimline and Light Dome.

Levelers
Optional leveling feet compensate for sloping or uneven sites; the adjustment allowance is either 1 or 1½ inches.

Rope Ratchets®
Optional Rope Ratchets® are available for additional security. These provide exceptional stability by allowing you to attach the top of your booth to the convenient eyebolt attached to the Happifeet™, helping minimize swaying and keeping the integrity of the tent frame intact.


Product Comparison

The Happifeet™ Weight Systems are second to none. See how we stack up against traditional weight systems:

Happifeet™ Weight Systems Traditional Weights
  • Made of solid-steel, with a zinc coating for added durability and rust-prevention.
  • Made of PVC pipes, sand bags, concrete blocks, using bungee cords.
  • Spreads the weight out under tent leg. This unique weight distribution makes it much harder to lift or flip the tent/booth.
  • Hang down from the top of the tent/booth, which does not allow for a solid, secure distribution of weight at the base of the leg.
  • Weights are easily bolted to the tent/booth (using included thumbscrews), making a secure hold between the tent and the weight.
  • Rigged up with bungee cords that can flex and break, which can make your tent go into someone else's booth. This could cause damage to both them and you, an event that may end your participation in the show!
  • Customizable set-up means that your weights sit easily within your designated booth space. Some adjustments may have to be made in your booth design.
  • Limited customization of set-up.
  • Can be paired with optional levelers, which helps the tent/booth adapt to uneven terrain.
  • Does not address sloping or off-level sites.
  • Weights are stackable and take minimal room to store and haul. The standard weights have a built-in carrying handle that makes them simple to move. The add-on weights are easily carried without a handle.
  • Difficult to store and transport. For example, PVC takes up more space and can roll around. Sandbags can get wet, soggy, and heavier by holding the rain.
  • Attractive, professional appearance.
  • Unpolished appearance detracts from your desired focus.
