A little disappointed in the roof, I expected aluminum panels and they are not. Two people put it together in about 5 hours. Frame seems sturdy. Make sure you check inside the corner posts, one part stuck and it was difficult to get out after frame was assembled. Other than that I purchased it last fall, but just put it up yesterday so time will tell if it lasts. After seeing the actual roof material, I do not think it would have have stood up to the snow we got In NY this winter. I am considering taking the roof off each fall just be on the safe side which is why only 3 stars. It looks nice but I wanted something to leave up year round so I should have spent the extra 600 dollars and got something better rated for snow, this advertised at 1200lb snow rating. Started raining si checked gazebo, dropped it from 3 stars to one star as the roof leaves in multiple places making it useless in rain. Better off with with a $300 soft top and replace the top every few years.
