Easy to set up, but I had to modify the hole at the top, make it larger, when it rains here it really rains and the tiny opening wasn't going to do the job. Plastic was easy to cut with a jigsaw. I also secured it to the house to make it more stable. I might also look for one that has a hinged or removable top (lid), this one doesn't have that, although something like that might be quite a bit more expensive. Being able to open it might help with cleaning and trouble shooting just in case something gets thru the screen.
