Setup took about two hrs. It would’ve been less if my husband had read all the way through instructions and not only each step at a time. But, all in all it was pretty easy! Took the two of us. At this point, it’s only been up for 4 days but, it’s great. The kids love the mist option!! Keeps them cool as they jump. We haven’t setup the basket ball hoop yet so, no opinion on that. It’s great quality...nothing feel jenky. Shipping and delivery was awesome, came almost a week before it was supposed to!
