The pavilion was delivered in an approximately 1 meter long box that can be used per se as a bag, but not necessarily. The rods you do not get easily back into that plane, however. The structure is very simple, a guide is not needed. When the pavilion is erected, an attachment to any nearby trees is unavoidable, because it would be less than two hours without assistance. Unfortunately we noticed also one morning that the plane passes in some places the water, but this is to fix with a little duct tape. Overall, we have the pavilion used in two festivals. We were really very happy to have had it at that. In the second use of the pavilion was however somewhat demolished, which is why we no longer even taken it home.
