I live in Chicago and the winters are brutal! Now the Pandemic has hit us and we can’t go anywhere ...but this great 12x12 enclosure has given us the opportunity of “going out to dinner”! It wasn’t as easy as it looks to put up, and definitely requires 2 people. It took me about 2 hours on my own. When it rained for two days solid, unfortunately the water came in as the tarp didn’t stop this. I’m going to roll the tarp up inside at the edges to see if this helps. What a super dining experience outside at home!
