I measured the frame and the "tent" parts. The roof fabric was a few inches short. No way to fit right? I solved the problem. Instead of stopping the assembly of the pipes to the fixtures at the pop up "latches" I pushed the pipes passed the holes until they "bottomed out" against the fixtures. Gave me the extra space I needed to make the roof fit on perfectly. After that the build went great. I got the beige color. I'm not sure if it makes a difference but most of the complaints seem to be for the gray version. The one I got is substantial and seems sturdy. No issues so far.
