We were selling our home and knew we wanted to spruce up our backyard deck. This definitely did the trick. We received compliments on it. I especially like the decorative metal corners. It just elevated the looks of it. Also really liked that it was vented with screen on the top to let the hot air escape. We live in an area that the mosquitoes could carry you away and this worked for keeping them off us while outside on a lazy Sunday afternoon reading. It was also a way of taking our pup out in the fresh air while keeping him by our side.
