Not bad. My soil has many rocks and stones and I was not able to get the stakes in very deep. I used some instant cement in the holes I was able to dig in hope of keeping it more solid. I did order 2 more panels to complete the fence. I might try and use a metal stake and sledge hammer to make pilot holes this time. The issue with the fence is that the stakes that go into the ground are not that strong so they start to bend once you hit resistance.
