Definitely helpful to have 2-3 people pop this up if you’re on the shorter side! But it looks so good once all set up! I staked all the holes on the legs instead of just one, and am debating on the best way to leverage using the string as I personally hate how they look and don’t like the trip hazard they can create. My area can get pretty windy, so I’m swinging on a hope and a prayer I don’t wake up to find this in the pool or out on the main road… lol
