I was pleased that arrival was earlier than quoted,unfortunately there were many dings in the obviously inferior material.We even had to bend one of the slider support back into place.Also,the directions were a bit confusing with little to no words.My biggest disappointment in it is that the foundation on the legs are very unstable and quite frankly an eyesore. We just purchased a lovely set of outdoor furniture and wanted to complete our patio with your pergola.Very disappointed indeed.
