The tent was very easy to put together. I was a little concerned because it was a rainy and windy day when I used the tent. However, with a little white duct tape and a little more weight to stabilize it, we were fine.
The thread of the pouch that holds the metal ends of the umbrella unraveled and won't stay within the pouch. Only had it for 3 weeks. Luckily I am domesticated and can sew.
