I got this frame to use as a shade for my orchid collection and it was pretty easy to put together, but a bit hard to do alone if you are short. The bottom legs are longer than I pictured and take up more space than I thought they would so I might need to pull out the saw or what ever can cut the metal to make the legs shorter (I am referring to the legs on the ground) so It can go back farther away from the patio frame and not take up so much space with out my plant rack in front of it. Seems to be made well and other than my mistake of not checking how long they were this should work great for the purpose i got it for.
