A good product but more detailed instructions wouldn't hurt Mar 12, 2007
By Swinger of Birches
This gazebo is reasonably well-made and it could be set up by one person. Furthermore, in calm weather, it is free-standing(lines and metal pegs are supplied for gustier days). However, I only had access to the instructions on the side of the bag of the one I borrowed, and I think the maker does their product and their customers a disservice by overemphasizing how quick and easy assembly is. It IS easy, the SECOND time. The crucial Step 3 says "Extend the legs and push up the quick hubs and you're FINISHED". Well, half an hour later my wife I still weren't "finished". Finally, I collapsed the lower sections and PULLED up the "quick hubs" until they clicked into place and then quickly did the other three before extending the lower sections. If you're over 6 feet tall and used to pressing 125+ lbs at the gym, when you extend the lower sections may not be an issue. Finally, putting the thing away, I forgot to lower the top sections(i.e. release and lower the "quick hubs") before trying to collapse the frame and ended up damaging one of the pieces connecting two struts. I admit I was careless, but this piece could easily be replaced with an Allen wrench. However,if you think that the maker, NorthPole Ltd. is willing/able to sell you this replacement part, you'd be sadly misinformed. I can't claim there was "a defect in materials or manufacturing" so I'm stuck with replacing the whole thing or returning the gazebo to the people I borrowed it from with a roll of duct tape. In summary, this is a functional, well-designed, pretty durable product and a good value, but erecting and collapsing it is something you may want to practice before the main event.

First Up Canopy Aug 19, 2009

This is a well built piece. It is very easy to set up. It takes about 15 minutes(the second time) the first time was easy but took 30 minutes, but no hard work. Seems to be well designed.We are glad that we got the better unit, even though it was $30.00 more.
