It took a over an hour to put up with two people. Its nice looking and functional.  We still love it even though its faded a lot.  The wind blew it over in a freak May snow squall and bent the frame.  We managed to repair it and are still using it.  The strings that it came with eventually broke so we bought some stronger twine.  And also replaced the original stakes with some heavy duty ones. Which we probably should have done when we first put it up, but we didnt know.  When theres a big storm in the forecast we pop the legs down to the lowest level and tie it down lower to the ground.  The zip up screens seem to be holding up well. We have a picnic table and a couple of adirondack chairs in it.  Overall we have enjoyed it a lot this summer and will take it down it the fall. Its seems to hold up in heavy downpours.
