Our area has had some unseasonably late, heavy snowfalls, so while we haven't had enough clear skies to set this up just yet, we have had the time to give it a thorough inspection. The construction is quite solid and heavy - doesn't feel the least bit flimsy. The bag that it comes with is very convenient for moving it around (I can easily carry it by myself) and, given our winter seasons, it's nice to have a gazebo that we can enjoy all summer long and pack away neatly during the snowy weather.
