Fairly easy to put together and works just fine -- but the parts are cheap. The cross bars have nuts glued to the inside to connect to screws, and several of the nuts broke right off when trying to attach the screws. With no extra pieces, I had to fashion a workaround to get the screw to stay in. Not ideal. These were way more expensive on a gardening website that has high quality materials, so I guess you get what you pay for.
