Needed something to cover my air conditioning unit because my dog's urine unfortunately had deteriorated the aluminum mesh on the unit! I had no idea my dog was using my AC unit as a peeing spot! Needless to say this privacy screen does the job! It was easy to assemble and easy to put in place around the AC unit while still allowing my unit to "breathe". It's also a nice cover and doesn't look like an eye sore. Love it.
