She liked the instructions and the final look, very nice in our yard. While I was away fishing, my wife put this together by herself using simple tools. She likes puzzzles and this was a huge one! She did not like the plastic coating on the base pieces , impossible to get off. Putting bolts in the panel slots was frustrating as well. Don't tighten things up during assembly, leave them finger tight for final adjustments. It takes some adjusting and things don't fit perfectly the first time, but with patience it goes together smoothly. Full assembly was 14 hours, so be ready.
