My Gazebo has made it thru a very windy summer/fall, and a snowy/windy upstate NY winter. I did remove the snow during the heavy 24+" of it. I have the legs' anchored in concrete that's 24" deep. It came thru it all in excellent shape. It was a real struggle to get one not damaged during the LTL delivery system. After months of perseverance to get the actual truth, IT WAS WORTH IT. I assembled 85% by myself and the wife helped with the rest. During assembly be sure to keep all parts only tight enough so you can still finesse the rest of the parts together. I went slow and did it in three days after work. It came out great and looks great. I remove the screens and curtains once it gets to be no fun LOL. They both are a nice added feature of this gazebo. Both seem to be of a durable material and the zippers all function as expected. I would definitely recommend. I would have given a 5 star except for the several month delivery delay's and damaged due to LTL. And nobody believes a 5.
