[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had a nice gazebo down by our dock, where all the neighbors would get together. Then we were hit with hurricane Ian. During the 150 MPH winds and 12 foot storm surge we lost our gazebo. We searched high and low for a replacement. After one of our trips to Sam's we saw this pergola. We decided that this was just what we could use. We ordered it and hoped it would be as nice and better than what we had. Our neighbors, with my husband and I put it up within 2 days. WOW it was awesome. We sent out the invites says that DOCKTAILS are on!!!! It was so great getting back to some normalcy after Ian. Everyone though it was really beautiful. Looking forward to many evenings with our friends and neighbors just having some cocktails, some food and conversation. Many people go by on their boats and remark how nice it looks. I just smile and says thanks.

We bought this Pergola from Sam's Club. It said it was to be delivered in a month, but we received it much earlier. We love it. I had so many people message and call me asking where we got it. It is definitely a 2, maybe even 3 person job. I give it 4 stars because my husband did have to redrill some holes, as not everything lined up as it should. We also noticed after it was up, a front post split vertically down the middle. Otherwise, we love this Pergola.

We bought a 12x14 gazebo and two 12x14 pergolas to occupy our new concrete patio. We have always loved the ambiance of this look and finally found a quality product! We first sealed all of the wood. My husband built the gazebo in two days, the first pergola in 8 hours and the second pergola in six hours. The key was using two a-frame extension ladders. We’re thrilled with the finished project!!!

assembly was easier to follow with Bilt than with instructions that came with kit. Wish I'd have purchased and assembled in January instead of June. Texas heat was brutal.\nI had a little issue with holes not lining up. Ended up drilling larger holes to get boards lined up\nIt's now finished, sun shades are mounted and we love it!

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....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for a backyard project and couldn't be happier. It was easy to put together and very well made. My next purchase will be one of their play sets for the grand kids to play on while the adults enjoy the new pergola.

If you are on the fence deciding whether or not to purchase, make the purchase. We bought ours this past July and have been making it our own ever since. When we first received our on time shipment, we thought we better check all the parts right away in case we needed anything replaced. When I called customer service to tell them we wouldn’t be putting this together for a few weeks and what if we discovered at that time we needed replacement parts, customer service assured us they would send us whatever we needed and not to worry. We built our pergola for a few hours each day during the week so all we needed to do on Saturday was raise up the posts and add the cross beams. This definitely makes the project less daunting and it only took us 3 hours or so when we lifted the posts. We have received several compliments. The color you see in the photos is the actual color. We have not yet stained. The purlins that came with (top) were just ok. They seemed crooked when we screwed them together. In the end, we added 1x3 cedar slats so that we had more shade. Directions were straight forward.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We planned our backyard patio around the pergola. We laid out the patio stone and ordered what we picked out; unfortunately they told us the stone we selected, or any color stone for that matter, was on back order for 22 weeks. Thank goodness we didn’t order the pergola at the same time. We didn’t want the pergola laying in the driveway in cardboard and getting wet. We had hoped to have everything done for Christmas but thought that was going to be a dream. We checked periodically on the delivery but no one was going to answer. I had counted the weeks out on the calendar and decided to order the pergola. My husband said this is a mistake – the stone will never come in on time. When I ordered the pergola it was scheduled for delivery in 10 days. A few days later the stones came and the crew said they would be on it immediately. Right on time the pergola delivered it silently and in our driveway. Never saw the delivery man or truck. Checked boards and hardware and all appeared fine. The stone completed and we immediately started to build our pergola. My husband and I started and our daughter arrived in time to help. Three days and all is done – one day before Christmas. We celebrated with a dozen family and friends at the table under our pergola. Couldn't be more pleased with our pergola.

We purchased this in June. We had to wait to install once the concrete patio was completed. It took about 6 hours to install completely and we were completely impressed with the construction. All of the components necessary were included. It turned out to be much stronger than I expected. Originally I was going to build one from scratch but after pricing Cedar components and figuring out all of the hardware required we decided to order from you. So glad we did.

I finally bought this pergola and my husband and sons put it together and it looked beautiful.... for a while. I put a green metal roof on mine because it sits around trees. Still beautiful, but the woodpeckers LOVE this wood. I have holes everywhere even with a fake owl and a wind chime. Then one fall day, a tree branch came down and smashed one side. My husband says he can repair it. I had ceramic tile and lights under the top and loved its look. Hope it can be rehabbed. Good purchase if found on a deal. Woodpeckers will destroy it.
