This is the second pergola we have purchased from Wayfair. We wanted a smaller version of the first one. It took several hours and 4 people to assemble. After assembly, we discovered that the front of the pergola was bowing in the middle. We made sure all bolts were tight, still bowing. We had to shore up the middle to make sure the load was evenly placed, as we didn't want it to buckle. The pergola is beautiful, and is a nice addition. It was disappointing however, that it needed extra help to be completed at an added expense.

This is great! It made my backyard feel more like home and safe from too much sun, or rain lol. Very sturdy and so glad I made this purchase!
