Several pieces had dents and bent areas while the box itself had no damage. This item needs better inner packaging to prevent this as well as better fabrication as a whole. There were predrilled holes where we had to file down random metal bits and dried drips of the metal coating that had to be sanded down in order for the nuts and bolts to be secured properly. There was also a pole leg that had metal bent at the opening preventing the top pole from sliding in. We had bend the metal opening for it to fit. All these areas will now be vulnerable to weather without further correction by the customer. 

For the frame and cover materials used, the price is decent, but it really should not have all the issues I mentioned above. I really wish a better quality of this item existed as it is the perfect dimensions to ￼extend the shade from our covered patio to our fence line.
