They arrived late afternoon the day before I was leaving on a camping trip where I wanted to use them. Decided to test out the set-up in the waning daylight hours. It was very easy to set it up. Took it apart and loaded it into the bed of the truck. Light weight enough to handle 4 panels at a time, but strong enough to keep the dogs in. I really like the product and may buy another set to increase the play yard for my two 50 lb dogs.
