Assembly was pretty easy Definitely requires at least two people to put it together. Sturdy and it looks great and provides good shade

There are several dents and some of elements came bent. Also the color is just grey, it doesn't look like a wood at all. Another disappointment came with the fact that poles are not solid wood, these Are just glued boards

This took two people almost 8 hours to put together. The directions are fairly clear however it is recommended to read the directions entirely or at least 3 steps ahead before each step. The hardware is not magnetic, with an application like this that is something that is almost necessary. The DD (most commonly used) screw heads were mostly faulty and stripped very easily. Time was added to assembly because of faulty hardware issues. There are three phases, after the first phase it does become a little quicker. The first phase is the frame and takes some engineering. DO NOT TIGHTEN THE BOLTS until the end of each step. I chose this item for a carport as shown in the photos. It is recommended to use three people although it will not reduce the amount of time that it took to put it together but will make it easier when putting the 2 ends together will the top rails. The end product is very nice, maybe allow 2 days to complete with less frustration and make sure you have some shade. also, wait to unwrap the panels until installing them - they scratch very easily and can bend out of shape if not handled correctly. The 4 start rating is due to the quality of the hardware and time it took to assemle with the description says "easy assebly" - that is deceiving.

Exceeded my expectations! Quality is great and love the size. Assembly was involved but overall not too difficult to manage. Can’t wait to spend summer nights sitting below it and enjoying the coverage. My only complaint was with the lack of price matching by Wayfair. It went on sale 3 days after I purchased it for almost 400 less. They made me ship back the 7 boxes and reorder it in order to get the discounted price.
