I was skeptical at first about the light due to price.  I bought another brand in the past that did not live up to expectations.   I opened the box and read the directions.  It said takes about 10 minutes to put together (the other brand took 2 hours b/c of terrible directions).  This light took less than 10 minutes and it was functional. The base is heavy, which helps greatly with wind.  Nice color.  Love the way it was so easy to put together and looks fabulous on my deck.
