My wife loves this canopy. It is well built and looks good. It went up relatively easy. The holes for the foot pads were too small and a pain to get the screws in. It was too hard using the supplied allen wrench, though it was the only tool needed. The instructions say to put the 4 pillars up and then build the canopy frame onto it from a ladder. I built the frame first, then mounted it on two of the pillars, then lifted the other side and mounted the pillars. I wish I had put the canopy on the frame first. The instructions say to take the canopy off before foul weather. We have had it up for several storms with no problem.
