I ordered this and was not sure what to expect. The shipping process was seamless as the guys called me ahead of time to check the condition of our road and let me know what type of truck it was being delivered on. Once we had all of the boxes, I was scared about the assembly process from reading online reviews. I had a son that just graduated from college (who needed some money) and I offered to pay him to put it together. He did 90% of it by himself i.e. putting the main frame together and installing the metal on the roof pieces. It does take two if not three people to maneuver the roof panels while anchoring them down. Once completed we hung outdoor lights and I can truly say that it has made our backyard and is absolutely gorgeous.
