This gazebo arrived in 3 separate boxes: 2 one day and the last one several days later.  It would be very helpful if the boxes indicated on the outside which box contained the instructions!
Speaking of instructions,  they were not easy to follow, making it difficult to assemble. In fact,some parts were even mislabeled!  They aren't kidding when it says 2 people are needed to assemble!  2 or 3 would be helpful. However,  the finished product looks very good and will provide some much needed shade on my deck.  Even though I like the finished gazebo,  the 4 stars is because the directions were hard to follow.
