Are there any screens broken fitted with an easy up hood? Are the screens used with an easy up hood equal (material and dimensions)? Is it possible that, if the screens material and size is same same, the difference of the frames could be responsible for the issue? I am wondering because mostly the screens are described to crack starting in a corner.
Could different cornering of the two frame types, in case of 9 stud frame, cause internal tension/pressure between screen and frame?
