I would have given this a "five" if the curtain holders weren't made of plastic. Everything else about this gazebo, from the packaging, instructions, and ease of assembly was excellent. Although I was able to put this together myself, I did need assistance for just a short time to raise and hold the posts while connecting the crossbars to the posts. Since I put this up on a concrete slab, it took a bit longer to level and anchor but it's not going anywhere now. Will have to wait and see how long the canopy holds up to the desert sun, but really satisfied with the construction of this gazebo compared to the price I paid. Well done!!
