It was soooo beautiful and sturdy. We spent many a summer nights in our gazebo next to our unground pool. We got some violent wind in October (before I had a chance to bring it in. The wind literally lifted the gazebo over a 4 foot fence and tossed it about 30 feet from where it stood. The wind also upended a 60 pound couch that was under it. We have a homeowners claim submitted to replace it. Will definitely purchase another!!!
