We love this veranda! Very easy to read instructions and just two little tools needed (supplied). Good packaging. All our verandas we have owned, have been Sunjoy products. Our old veranda was still good, except we recently moved to a state that has snow every winter, and I am getting too old to take the canopy down before winter, and up again after the snow. I decided on the model with the steel roof. The quality of the material is exceptional, as with all their verandas.  I would very much recommend this veranda! I think I made a very good decision and it is well worth the price I paid for it.
