Wonder if anyone has gone through the process of getting a price on a Weatherport structure. Any idea of what the 12x20 units cost? I am not inclined to jump through hoops for their sales process to find out basic pricing so thought I'd ask here. Tks. in advance.
I picked up a used one on Criagslist a couple years ago. An insulated 12x20, Quonset hut style with a hinged door for $1800 if memory serves. I had contacted Erik at Weatherport.com and gotten some preliminary cost estimate that was around $9k. I spent about $600 to build a platform for it and about $500 for a wood stove.

Mine is probably over 20 years old. Newer models have a less rounded profile, allowing for a little more useable floor space because the side walls are more upright. They also use square tube rather than round tube.
Thank you CT. My guess was that they were pricey but nice. Much more than we'd want to spend for a temporary - temporary shelter... unless we can pick one up used like you did.
Mine has really served well, and it holds up to the weight of a winter of snow. I got lucky, because like you I wasnt willing to spend that much for new. If you haven't seen it yet, SearchTempest is a great way to search Craigslist regionally.
