This seems to be is a sturdy , well designed gazebo, putting it together was a chore for sure!!  We put it together my husband and myself, ( it took approximately 3 1/2 days ) it can be done but it probably would have been easier if he’d had stronger help. Two things I think could be improved on,  #1 the instructions could have a few more words in them, the illustrations are not bad but more verbal instructions to go along with might help , #2 (here’s a pet peeve of mine ) add a few extra screws and nuts of each kind , this isn’t an inexpensive item and if you’ve lost a couple screws along the way you could be perturbed . I would recommend it, I think it’s strong and a great size , just go into knowing it’s going to be a job to assemble
