Love it so much I bought a second! I bought this for my patio to block the view of my neighbors hot tub and for some extra privacy. I painted it more of a neutral color to tone down the yellow stain color it comes in. The panels were already assembled together so it was ready to go right out of the box! I’ve put my patio table in front of it in case of high winds but it stands up on its own quite sturdy. I used a primer + paint and only had to do one coat.
