I am in love with this gazebo. “Pop up” is essentially the true definition of it. It was very easy to put together and the instructions are pretty good too. I would say all in all it took me about 20-25 minutes. It comes with a nice storage bag so if you are so inclined you can bring it to the park, to a friends house, camping etc. and it not be a big issue at all. It’s very late in the season and will start to snow here soon, so I didn’t bother putting on the mosquito netting but I can’t imagine it would be that difficult. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product!!
