This was an awesome deal and ended up exceeding my expectations.  It took my wife and I two days to build it.  We had 2 ladders and a step stool and were able to manage, but probably should have called our daughter & son-in-law for more help.  The good news is that once you get the 4 posts and beams up, the rest is relatively easy.  I say relatively because the roof panels can give you fits.  My recommendation is to start in the middle of each section and work out to each corner.  Gazebo seems well built and sturdy.  I'm hoping to enjoy it for many years!
