The gazebo is sturdy and looks Great on our deck. My husband and Son-in-law built it in about 5 hours with no major issues. The only issue was the missing privacy curtains. I emailed Wayfair to let them know. They responded within a few hours, saying the curtains would be here in 4-5 days. We are very pleased with the results. Domi Louvered the manufacturer makes a solid product!
