Very nice structure but! One of the three boxes of roofing had been damaged.

Had hard time putting together beams had to sand some of the coating off to make them fit. Also some of the holes weren’t punched out.

The carport seems sturdy enough and was about the lowest price option for the size but unlike most carports that the roof panels that extend the full length of the carport this one has 4 panels lengthwise. Unfortunately the multiple panels means that there are multiple seams in the roof. The tar like material included with the kit was very difficult to work with and we decided to use silicone instead. Unfortunately we now have several small leaks that we have to repair.

For once, we decided to take what we thought was an easier option instead of building it ourselves. Nope! First note, its very heavy which we feel is good. Instructions were fairly easy to follow in identifying parts and placement. Customer service addressed our missing screws and promptly issued a PO after verifying model #, store purchased, missing item # and a few other questions and are currently on their way Now for the not so nice. It ended up taking us about 16 hours to pop it up and approx 8 of those hours was tearing off the shrinkwrap which is a sticky plastic film from 68 sheets for a 20x20 (hope you dont pay a contractor to have to do this). After fully erecting, except for a couple panels we noticed we were missing screws which customer service is taking care of, we also realized rain does not run off properly on pop up carports if panels are placed horizontally on a flat level surface. On day 3 we noticed some rust spots. On day 4 we got rain and ended up with lots of pooling on roof so we had to cut down the legs to give a gradual slight grade, just enough for water to drain off the back. We placed our carport on pavement and during the heavy rain there was nowhere for rain to drain so there was pooling at the base supports. The roof also needs sealed in places, which is directed to use clear silicone but was not provided so off to spend more $$. I wont say to buy or not to buy, but to inform others what they are getting into.
