Absolutely beautiful addition to our deck. It took 2 12 people to put it together (we had to wait for my teenager to wake up late before she joined us in the build each day.) we built it over 2 days. The most difficult part is screwing in the top panels. LOTS of contorting and reaching and praying that holes line up. No words in the directions—just pictures, which are definitely helpful, but sometimes we had to guess as to how to interpret the pictures.
