Just finished assembling it today. Instructions were great. Built it by myself. It is possible but two people would be better. But went together great and looks great!

This gazebo is absolutely gorgeous. It is very sturdy and the cedar has repelled any insects as anticipated. It took 3 of us to assemble and a full 10 hours, while the instruction were laid out well, I would suggest paying extra for professional assembly if you can.

Overall it seems to be great quality and I am loving it so far. There were some defects with the boards received, but I was able to make it work. The instructions leave out some details/steps so you will have to figure out what works best. It will definitely require more than one person to assemble. It took approximately 10 to 12 hours total to assemble.

This gazebo is awesome, I love gray stained cedar and overall it was pretty straightforward to put together. It took me about 2.5 days of off and on assembly with a few hours each day. Maybe 10 hours total and I didn’t have help but for maybe an hour of that time, the rest was solo. Very manageable if you’ve assembled things before. If you have 2-3 people I’m sure you could knock it out all at once. The deduction of the star is because there was one piece missing (hook for a light inside the gazebo) and there were some scratches and a couple bent pieces of metal that I had to bend back into form. Besides that, everything is great with it and it’s the perfect covering for my new hot tub. I’m looking forward to spending a lot of time under this gazebo with friends and family. For the price that I bought it for, it was a great bargain and I’m happy with my purchase. Would recommend for anyone that has a need for this size gazebo. Also, it came with hardware for mosquito nets which I wasn’t sure if this model did or not but I’ve seen some that do. That was an added bonus for me and like that feature.

Gazebos is perfect for the back patio experience! Has stood up well against wind and snow over the years!
