Easy to assemble, and set up.

Good product easy to install, my on complaint is that it has 4 ventilation holes in the top that allow water to come in, not a big deal but could do without it.

The instructions are awful. You really need to think it thru each step or you end up taking it apart and turning things around and putting back together again. The whole frame is pretty light weight so I am concerned that it will not hold up in a heavy wind. The tarp is REALLY thin. I needed a gazebo that would fit on our deck and it couldn't be a full 10 foot wide and this one fit because it measured 9'10 inches so I couldn't be real fussy in the quality of the structure. This was around the same price as others I had seen assembled in stores but is not the same quality. It looks great on our deck, I am just worried the first wind storm will destroy it. We have anchored it to the deck with bolts but the metal just seems very thin to me.

It is a great gazebo. My husband took flower pots and cemented all four posts in . We bought it last summer. We loved it. We didn't use the side because when our wind got crazy it was grabbing it. It has been a wonderful product. This summer we had a very very bad storm that may have included a tornado. It ripped our canopy to shreds. Every other gazebo seems to sell the replacement canopy. I could not find it. I saw under the question and answer part on this page a person ask the same question. They were told to call a number. So I spoke to an extremely nice man who had to contact the manufacturer. I heard back from him and the manufacturer directed us to the Garden winds website. I went and found the replacement which now is changed to include fancy technology to stop the ripping I guess. It wasn't available until the end of September and it costs $160!! All the other canopies seems to be between $50-$80. Very unhappy about this.

This gazebo is reasonably easy to install but must be anchored to the ground/deck/patio to insure it does not get damaged by the wind or moved to your neighbor's yard. It provides great protection from the sun or even a light rain. The side awning can be adjusted to provide a variety of shaded areas. The only concern I have is that the sun really bleached out the brown color of the cloth part of the gazebo so it is now light gray. This is not a problem unless the sun also breaks down the fabric more than just the color. We really like this gazebo and may actually purchase a second one. Note:there were two parts that were damaged in shipping. Home Depot was very good about arranging for replacement parts which were shipped right to my house.
