I bought one of these at Fred Meyer for $49.99. It was already assembled. I'm sure the black powder coating is durable, but it's really ugly (my daughter called it "creepy") so I painted the vane green and the blades a cheery fluorescent yellow, like a giant freakin' daisy. Painting a bright color over flat black takes a LOT of paint so consider a primer first. (I uploaded a "before & after" picture here on Amazon.)Also, expect to see rust on the inside of the bars that make up the tower. Keep in mind that you're going to be growing a vine up this thing anyway, and even with the rust it's going to live long enough to be worth fifty bucks.Having said that, I love this thing. Doesn't take much of a breeze to get the blades turning, and maybe 5 MPH to get the whole vane pointing in the direction of the wind. I put some 30-weight on the vane shaft to ensure wind direction accuracy and avoid future rust.I bought five cheap solar-powered lights that light up the blades at night. The flat-black tower is really hard to see, so the yellow blades appear to be floating eerily (perhaps we're back at "creepy" again). Use your imagination and this thing has all kinds of potential.Comes with four beefy (but not very long, maybe 8") metal stakes to hold down the legs. Because it would be ironic for your windmill to be blown over by wind. Or to form a circle of opinion that begins and ends at creepy.

Love this windmill. Easy to assembly. Painted windmill like other review suggested. Can't wait to put in my new garden.

Even with the existing so-so reviews, I took a chance on this product because I liked the shape and size of it. The quality was better than I expected. It was easy to assemble, the windmill turns smoothly and it is not "creepy" as a previous review stated. This Spring, I plan to plant some honeysuckle at the base and use it as a trellis. Ranked it only a four stars as do not yet know how long it will last in the weather since it is a new purchase.
