The Assembly was easy. It provided the shade we needed although the curtain structure and hanging rope still allowed bugs in. The worst part is we set this up for a Labor Day (3 days away) event and the tent never made it despite stakes and sandbags to keep it soundly grounded. It's still fell over, broke and tore and it didn't make it to Labor Day. Now I have to figure out a replacement option because we have visitors coming to the house. Disappointed and sad is an understatement. I could not recommend this or re purchase. It was obviously not meant to last. There was a slight rain, which we planned to stick out under the canopy until the thing took flight. Luckily no one was hurt.*Update - Customer service reached out to me immediately and directly.
