This tent has you covered for a big party. It is easy to assemble, NO TOOLS NEEDED! I was able to lay out parts and assemble top frame myself. Then, I had my 18 year old and 9 year old hold up one end and I was able to attach legs. The toughest part was putting tarp on roof as it is one very large piece. Once all done (4-5 hours) a big storm came through and it held up. I would recommend anchoring if using permanently. Next day a huge party with 70 people, Five 72 inch round tables, 40 chairs, and 3 high top bar tables left room to roam around. Everyone complimented the tent. It was same cost or cheaper to buy this tent than to rent!!
