I had been searching for a gazebo to fit out poured patio and this one fit the bill. It was installed in October and I had wondered how it would handle an Iowa winter. Heavy snow, winds, sleet and everything in-between this structure held up. The gazebo is very well constructed and looks great. This is a low-maintenance solution to providing shade and definitely improves the aesthetics of the back of our house.

I bought this kit about a month ago. 5 boxes with the heaviest around 200lbs. No parts were missing after unpacking. Everything was labeled well. Pretty straightforward and detailed instructions. Takes 2 people about 2 days install. Tips: sort and put in order all of the wood and same with the hardware by number. I placed my gazebo on a paver patio so I had to remove a few pavers to place 4 footers 12" round and 32" deep then reinstalled pavers. Also when you installed the footers, use the Sampson post plates instead of what they give you. This will give you a little leeway or ability to adjust. Don't even go to forward until your post are absolutely square and level. Hardest part of the job is peeling the shri k wrap off the metal panels, miserable tedious job. Looks beautiful next to the pool area and I bought a 1 x 6x8 cedar board and cut pieces to accent the pole bottoms.to.not see post brackets. SUPER well made product but takes some time to do it right. Also don't right and get a gallon of seal once and coat each cedar board. Also it doesnt say it anywhere but this gazebo is ve ted at the top too. Good luck and worth it when done!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this as a cover over my Hot Tub. It’s very solid and well built. Used the service to have it built. Many parts and instructions are complex. I highly recommend professional assembly and installation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After careful deliberation and having helped my neighbor erect an identical product over the course of a weekend, we were extremely impressed with the quality, speed, and customer service provided by this group. Well worth the fee!!!

I bought this to add to my deck expansion. With the help of my sons. We got it assembled. Took longer than expected, but had limited time where my sons could come over & help. Instructions were very detailed. Only issue was a couple of the posts had holes drilled in wrong place for the corner brackets & had to drill new holes and it wasn't easy taking the plastic wrap off the metal parts. That's the reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. We are loving the new gazebo.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased with how this looks. we put it over our outdoor kitchen and it is perfect. It covers it well so we can grill in the rain. I think we had to use a little silicone on a couple spots but after that, no leaks. Some Technical difficulties and frustration getting the missing pieces and then getting the workers back to complete the job, but overall very pleased.

We purchased this to Zibo because of the overall style in the electrical seizures and structural integrity. We are so happy with it it looks amazing and living in Arizona I’m confident now that I’ve added three coats of Watco finishing oil; it will continue to look amazing. I can’t believe my neighbor spent over 7K for an aluminum structure, wrinkly it looks like a complicated gutter system.

We bought this gazebo a few months ago and had it assembled. We are very happy with it and have received a lot of compliments. It is sturdy and looks great. We stained it with a transparent stain and wiring for a ceiling fan and lights. We spend a lot of time on the patio now and love our new setup!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this Gazebo couple months ago and we just installed it on our new pool patio. I went with Backyard after lots of research between brands and reviews. My friend had another brand and it caused him all kinds of problems to put together. I hired a buddy that has been a contractor for over 20 years. He has put together and setup other brands himself before ours and they did not go up as well as this one did. The fit and finish in his mind was fantastic. It took 2-3 people (definitely recommend) a solid 1-1/2 days to build it taking our time and verifying everything before just assuming we knew. Instructions were spot on. My buddy said it was with out a doubt the best pre-made gazebo he has ever put together besides building one himself. He said he would recommend this brand 100% unless the customer needs something specific built. It looks amazing and we cannot thank Backyard enough.

This is our second gazebo to build at two different locations and it was a great experience. My wife and I (61 and 58 years old) assembled the gazebo by ourselves. We had our neighbor help with the 14foot roof panels, but we did everything else by ourselves. It was straightforward with the instructions. Just take your time. It helps to have the right tools, drills, etc. to assemble. The quality of the wood is great. And there are plenty of extra bolts and screws for future repairs or needs. If you enjoy DIY projects, this is a fun one to build.
