This thing is kind of a pain to set up, you'll definitely want to get at least three people to help you set it up. Takes us about an hour or so to get it set up from start to finish. Make sure to print the manual off as it's kind of a pain to flip through it on your phone. For the most part it's pretty self explanatory for setting it up- all the parts are labeled and directions tell you what goes with what. As with all manufactured things you will find that there are some minor flaws but, not a whole lot notice those flaws unless they go looking for them. Make sure you put the tent cover on the top frame when it's assembled before you get it raised up- this may take more than four people but, maybe not. Other than that, I really actually like this thing. Get ready for your phone to ring, once people find out that you have this you'll likely get asked if you'd be willing to borrow it out. We've set it up about four or five times now and each time it gets easier to set up. Pretty worthwhile investment.
