JKing: We used this for our daughter's park wedding. My husband assembled it by himself with relative ease and moved it with the help of another man to the park and back home after. They were unable to secure the stakes (ground too hard) but it was still sturdy enough to stand on its own for the ceremony with floral arrangements in the corners. Very happy with this selection!

Donna ReynoldsDonna Reynolds: Like everything about the arbor. Two sets of hands is helpful. Because the arbor is in an area on an incline it was decided to put the entire arbor together in our garage and carry it out to the location, because the 2 holes on the incline could not be certain as to depth until the arbor was put in the ground. And then it still had to be tweaked for leveling. It looks great!

Andrew L.: Installed in less then 2 hours....with cementing the footers. Very easy to install with 2 people.

Some tips for installation;
I put it in place, marked where the holes will need to be. Dig the holes and fill with cement. This item includes 4 leg extensions that fit into the leg bottom. Screw them in place as deep as they will go into the bottom of the arbor with one screw each. Place the arbor into the holes with the leg extensions into the cement. If leveling/plumb is good...put the second screw to secure the extension to the leg. Or unscrew and make level and re-screw the extension back in. I also added 5 inch screws through the extension (side that will be in the cement) to anchor into the cement. The arbor is a bit top heavy so I would not recommend skipping the cement as the extensions in dirt doesn't seem substantial to hold it upright with any wind.

Overall this is a great product for the money. Alot better then expected!!!

Anchors as we get very strong winds.

Noreen Moore: We did have to wait quite a while for the arbor to arrive. One piece was wrong. We contacted the company and received the correct piece promptly.

Linde: Looks as pictured but is VERY light and needs to be anchored to the ground. It comes with something to put in the ground (grass) but no way to put on a patio etc.

M. Joanne: I'm a wood person who wanted a wood arbor in my Florida Landscape. I twisted my knee and the pain made me consider an alternative. My injury help me `think outside the box' - to my `now' benefit!

Yes you need to assemble it and there are a lot of pieces but... I'm 75, painful twisted knee and my arthritis is killing me but I was out there putting it together by myself on an old blanket. Ladies you can do this; but a 2nd pair of hand from any sex will help the assembly when you start putting the large sections together. It is clumsy about 8 feet high but not restrictive to handle.

I live in Florida where termites eat wood, so you are always spraying for bugs. Rot is a problem because we not only have a lot of sun, we have a lot of rain. Rain & shade brings black mold and scrubbing a wood arbor with soap & water is not something I enjoy, I'm a power sprayer type person! This smooth PVC structure will be easily cleaned (no repainting). If this arbor is like my fake white wicker PVC chairs at the pool, it will look nice for a very long time.

I have looked at a lot of pre-built options and I don't recommend metal. Looks too delicate, rust is a problem...
