This doghouse is wonderful! Very easy to assemble. I'm not sure what difficulty a user had that it took half a day to assemble. The instructions were very easy to follow. It took no more than 30 minutes. The roof pieces have a compressible filler in the joints and must be set tight. There is no leaking when it's assembled right. The only issue I had was with the two roof screws. The top roof trim has to be compressed to hold the roof slats tight. The internal web that holds the screw sits against was snapped off, so I couldn't get one side to stay tight. Problem solved with a self tapping metal screw through the top. (Not included). There is also a vinyl flap available to keep out the weather.

I've since bought a second one for my girlfriends house.
