Nice For The Price PREVIOUS MODEL:We bought this new model as a replacement for our previous gazebo of this type (almost an exact match – the bolt holes even lined up on the concrete pad) which was destroyed by a tornado (along with 25 trees, 2-1/2 buildings and parts of my house). I can think of only two ‘cons’ regarding the previous model:1) The cover retained water, which stretched the canvas out of shape. (The good thing about that was that it didn’t leak and you could sit under it in a light rain)2) The unit did not come with sun screens as advertised. We called about this and were told that that model didn’t come with sun screens. They didn’t really know what to say after we showed them their own web page with sun screens plainly listed in the ad for that model.NEW MODEL:This new model came exactly as advertised. Only two differences between the two models that I noticed:1) The new model has more of a tight mesh cover which doesn’t allow rain water to collect and stretch the fabric. Even so, we are still able to sit under the cover in a light rain without getting wet – maybe just slightly, but that’s welcome in this southern Indiana summer climate. There’s always the covered front porch to sit under if it’s raining hard or a bit too cool to get a little wet.2) This model came with all the sun screens and mosquito netting as advertised.I have only two negative comments about this model:1) The instructions for assembling the netting and screens were worse than vague. FYI – the sun screens go on the inside track with the ties to the outside; the mosquito netting goes on the outside track with the ties to the inside. Best to lay out all the panels before placing in the tracks to make them line up with the poles the way you want them. Took us a couple tries to get it right.2) Significant quality control issues with the stitching on the sun screen panels. The zipper seams were terribly sewn. We will need to restitch some areas ourselves as there are some gaping holes between the zipper fabric and the canvas.Overall we’re pleased with the product and would recommend it to others – with a “watch out” for what I mentioned in the two comments directly above.
