Really love this pergola! It was shipped in 5 boxes. My husband and I were able to move 4 of them to the backyard but had to unpack the biggest box and carry pieces back individually. Assembly wasn’t too horrible, our biggest issue was figuring out how to attach the louver arms to get them working properly. It was somewhat tedious but we finished it in 2 days of sporadic work. Pergola seems pretty high quality and worth the price.
