I bought my gazebo almost a year ago. As a family we never went in the backyard, since we've purchased the gazebo the whole hangs out under the shade. From bbq,to listening to music, to my daughter doing her homework. The already installed electric power source comes in handy I've added lights to the gazebo and I am getting ready to install a TV for more backdoor fun. I recommend the gazebo and give it 5 stars.
