Very sturdy, beautiful pavilion. Took three days to build with 2-3 people working on it. Assembling the roof was the most difficult part. The roof is built in 4 parts (each side) on the ground before placing it on top of the frame. That is the part where I highly recommend having at least 3 strong people available to help. It was a labor intensive job and we are all sore after a long weekend, but the final product made it all worth it.
