I wish I had looked into getting one of these sooner. I debated on whether to pay for assembly or not and went without, and it was not hard for my husband and I to assemble it ourselves. Now we and our whole family spend a lot of time out there. We do game nights, meals, hanging out. I was a bit worried about it during some storms but it wasn’t impacted at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased and put together all on my own this spring 2023, NO missing parts, extra hardware and tools included, simple directions (if you like legos - this is a snap). Overall very solid, I pre coated everything with wood sealer prior to assembly. The corbels were a bit tricky to line up with the pre drill positions but a few 36" wood clamps fixed that simple enough. Nothing but compliments from friends and neighbors.

My wife and I were able to build and install the pergola on our own. We loved the quality of the materials and how all the pieces came together perfectly. We did not have to re-drill any holes. Everything lined up and fit like a glove. One recommendation is you pay very close attention to the diagrams and make sure you are putting the pieces together just like the diagrams. We have a couple that we did not put together the first time correctly.

Light-weight cedar is easy to work with, and the kit is fairly well-made. Not a lot of warpage, and the bolts and washer stuff seemed fairly-well machined. Pungent Chinese cedar (too bad it wasn't from the U.S.). Only one short piece was split and nearly unusable. We'll see how the warranty goes....

I love this pergola! It was easy to put together as it was already precut and stained. Looks awesome next to our pool. I was nervous about if the stain would hold up during the winter, but it looks brand new. This pergola was much cheaper than buying one from Menards or Home Depot. Love it and would definitely recommend it to others!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this few months ago, didn't have a chance to install it until 2 weeks ago, I am happy with the product was very easy to put together instructions was easy to follow toke me , my wife and brother in-law about six hours to install, good material and looks very nice on my patio

At first we thought that the building of this pergola would take forever with all the pieces , but the instructions on the app that’s provided made the process go smoothly. We love the cedar wood and the looks of this pergola. We were happy to have every piece and tool that we needed. The only negative we had was that not all of the holes were clean. We used a screwdriver to clean them and chipped some of the wood around them. Other than that great product. My husband wants a second one.

Great product when it finally arrived.(shippers fault) read assembly instructions at least once before beginning. One person can easily do up to step 3. Personally I would recommend anchoring the unit after step 4. It’s much easier to handle being lighter. Then add the rest of the wood. Directions were superb, good hardware and tools and wrenches supplied. A well engineered product.

This is a two person project and was completed in under 8 hours. Everything piece of wood is labeled, including the screws. Instructions are easy to follow and downloadable app with instructions and 3d visuals ensure you move from step to step with confidence and ease! The finished product is beautiful and makes a big statement!!

The pergola itself is fine. It has some weird gaps in the joinery as you might expect from something manufactured in China. But both the customer support team and the assembly folks were great. Very responsive, very friendly, very quick to resolve issues. I would buy from them again just because the customer service was exceptional
