I would expect the majority of the things are used in good weather to protect from the sun etc. Therefore most customers wouldn’t have the rain Issues and would probably accept the problems the OP is having as a one off. I’ve stood in many a beer tent where it’s been raining inside in really rough weather
Well the Gala pro 50 is up and is clearly much better quality and blackout inside which is nice.
I've not seen it under rain pressure yet but as the material is much heavier duty i assume/hope it is much better at not leaking
It does however have a small hole in the side of the roof which I've photgraphed and emailed them about...yet to hear back.
Still waiting for the other seller to arrange collection of the leaky gazebo.

An update here for those deciding which gazebo to buy...the gala pro 50 is obviously better quality, thicker walls and roof and a much stronger frame...however, the customer service is near to non existent.
The first rainfall we had since using it revealed it too leaks at seams and the window. That was about three weeks ago. I have been chasing them every few days in writing for them to offer a solution. I have sent photos and videos of the clear leaking. To this day no one has even viewed the video I have sent them and I am continuously told the same thing "quality control is looking in to this".
Today is the deadline day I asked them to resolve the issue by. It seems I may be left with no other option other than to get Trading Standards involved and start to leave reviews on the usual sites. Shame. Real shame.
It seems there is no such thing as a waterproof gazebo right now, which to me is insane as my £60 camping tent from amazon hasn't leaked once in years of use.
Perhaps this will help others somewhere down the line. I hope it doesn't come across as a rant or bitter. Hopefully a heads up. Especially as I spoke with them on the phone pre purchase and explained the issues I had with previous gazebos and the sales patter knew the brand and told me how much better the Gala was.

She's right, Absolut is much better than Smirnoff

I'd look at an ex military tent or a polytunnel
