This snowman is great. He is tall and he really lights up beautifully. I did put him together by myself but it was a struggle. There are 6 pieces to put together and they are all attached by the wire for the lights. I had to lay it all together and use the wall to set it up. The pieces have a small wire rod that you hook together. The material is very white and I dont think it would weather well or keep clean outdoors. Nor, would he stand up to any wind. This guy would work great indoors. His arms take up a lot of space.
