Watch your local weather report daily!
Just bought a 2nd one to replace the last. A strong thunder storm w/ high winds rolled thru while we were not home. Gazebo does great in hot sunshine and light rain, but forget about any winds +20mph. Then your gazebo becomes a big parachute and the light aluminum frame bends like toothpicks. I've had it for little over a year. It survived a couple passing thunder storms. You'll want to keep track of the weather, especially any high winds above 20mph. Take the gazebo top off during those times. Google the video on assembly. Much easier with a 2nd help of hands. Instructions could improve by including a step process, not just a diagram. But we bought a 2nd one and love it on our condo's front patio. We used concrete blocks at each corner base. It served as anchors and raised it higher too. If you get the blocks that have the slots on one side, the frame fits in there perfectly. I get heavy-duty rubber tie-down straps to hold each corner frame down.
