We didn't know what to expect...but we didn't expect hundreds of pieces of metal and an instruction book with only drawings on how to put this together. Eventually we got it together and only then realized that 1 small metal piece was put on the back of the greenhouse and that prevented us from putting the door on the front. The entire structure would have had to have been taken down in order to correct this, and after 2 1/2 days struggling to get it together, we decided to put the door on some other way. Valuable lesson learned...,look for reviews!!!
