We love our gazebo. Installation was easier than I thought. Took my husband and I 2 days and it was not an all day project. About 6 hours each day. So far pretty sturdy, it's been up for about 3 weeks now, we've had 2 episodes of strong wind and did not shake. We had the aluminum type ones before which broke in several pieces after a very windy day. No regrets here. Instruction could have been easier to read but overall okay to follow with diagrams. We think some holes were missing on some of the roof panels but my husband worked around it. Will recommend.
