It turns out the 76" unit is really the 40" unit plus an extension pack, which wasn't what I expected and added a step to the assembly process. This was a little bit tricky because the support bars for the center of the unit are very narrow, which limits the available space for tightening the nuts and bolts. The first one I assembled took about 30 minutes (both because I was unfamiliar with the instructions and because I accidentally put two of the corner pieces on upside down and had to redo it), but I was faster at the ones I assembled after that.
Only a few weeks after assembly, I have the best-looking vegetables I've had in a long time. The 22" depth makes a big difference in the root structure for tomatoes, squash, and eggplants, and they've started growing more quickly and vigorously than I've seen in my previous raised-bed gardens. I'm optimistic about having a great crop of herbs and vegetables this summer!
