Most people are quoting 8 hours assembly with three people. It took us 10/12 with 2 adults and a preteen with the roof being the hardest part. (YOU NEED 2/3 ppl for the roof!) My husband put the base together by himself. Some of the instructions were numbered a bit off and no written instructions but we figured it out. Its like IKEA picture type instructions with no words.
Its beautiful once up and even better once weve put up smart lights, an echo dot for music, and two fans. The privacy curtains and mosquito netting are a great value. We LOVE IT and are spending most of the summer evenings in there. Its sturdy and a great neutral color for any home. Looking to see how it does with the rainy weather in the PNW. The customer service was great as we were missing a few items and some parts of the curtains roughed up in transit. All parts were replaced quickly.
Tip: Wait for the 7 boxes before you start laying it out and unpacking. ROOF: put the middle horizontal bars for the roof up first as you do each side so the panels will stay up for the roof when you are setting them or sliding them in the channels. And forget the tools included. Power tools and a wrench made it go faster. We put magnetic curtain weights (from ) on some of the mosquito netting to keep it from blowing around so much. Allen and Roth Bronze fans ( and Lowes) are a perfect color match and dont sway. We put it on a smart power strip to control it and the Gazebo lights with Alexa but some people have used a plug/remote control since these are high up and done have a remote.
Sturdy Gazebo / very pleased!
