Purchased this Pergola on-line, it was delivered in multiple boxes. We have a long steep driveway and the delivery company dropped the boxes at the bottom of the driveway. Not acceptable since other companies have delivered to our doorstep. For the price the pergola is good value for money. The instructions are easy to follow and for the most part it fits together fairly easily. Its a 2 person job and I was able to assemble it over the weekend with my wife. Some of the bolts used to hold the base to the top are a bit short, longer bolts would make it easier to assemble and provide more threads for the nuts to hold on to. We live in southern CA and the slats provide some shade, I recommend adding a Pergola Shade Cover for additional protection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the size; fits a couch and two chairs under it. With the outlets included in the structure, we are able to have "movie nights" with a projector and laptop and adding a pull down movie screen. Perfect for our "all sun" backyard. Easy to put together but needs at least two people.

We bought this pergola as a second choice, but it is perfect for our space. I was surprised it for in the boxes is arrived in, it is cut into pieces (which I did not like) and my husband had to drill in some places that were not exactly right, but overall it is beautiful. It took the two of us a few evenings to get it up (I would recommend more than two people for assembly).

I would give this Pergola a 5-star rating if the company provided a sunscreen option for later purchases. I have had my Somerville 10x14 Pergola for 3 years. We enjoy sitting outside on cooler days, my yard is directly under the sun for the majority of the day, and that sunscreen option has been truly missed every year. I have tried other companies to find a suitable cover or canopy, with little to no success.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this over the Summer and am very pleased with it. I also bought a pergola shade to add additional shade in the evening from the sun and hung string lights around it too. If you buy this just watch when you’re putting it together paying extra cloe detail to the wood layout and pre drilled holes. Also make sure your building it where you intend to put it. I built it where it would be easier for me to manage putting it together then afterwards it was the wrong way lengthwise so I wound up standing in the middle under the pergola and lifting it up at balance point to rotate it slowly. Also make sure if you do want to move it you have 4 people with muscle. I’m a big guy and did it by myself but it’s not light once it’s assembled.

I purchased this Pergola to give my backyard a specified space for my patio gathering area. The pergola took my nephew about 4 hours to assemble. There were a couple of boards that were scratched from delivery. I called customer service and they immediately offered me a touch up stain. Two of the boards had a split and they sent out replacements ASAP! Not only is the product prefect for my space but the customer service was the BEST I have encountered.

I just bought this a few weeks ago and my husband and brother in law put it together yesterday. It took them about 6 hours to do which I think could have been done in less time if the pieces had some kind of labeling on it. It was kind of confusing to figure out which piece the directions were talking about. Also some of the holes didn’t line up with the other ones when connecting it together. Overall though it is a very nice and sturdy pergola and a perfect addition to our patio.

We bought the Somerville 14 x 10 Pergola about a month ago as a complement to our recently installed brick paver patio and we absolutely love it. The design and size are perfect for our needs, providing just the right amount of sunlight filtering and shade during the brightest, sunny afternoons. Since we have a front porch with space for dining, we decided to make the patio a space for sectional lounging and we've spent countless days and evenings her ever since. The gray finish looks natural, the quality of the wood and the construction components are high, the assembly was straightforward (2 people over the length of an afternoon) and there were no issues with the shipping or delivery. The built in electrical outlets are a bonus. Highly recommended.

We bought this last month and we are so happy we did! My husband put it together in one afternoon. It went together pretty quickly, there were a few holes that didn't line up but we expected some hiccups. It fits perfectly over our stock tank pool and looks beautiful!

We had our Pergola installed in August, so we have not had a full season to enjoy it. But, the pergola has enhanced our patio presence that we have had people all over the country who want to join us. So, we're looking forward to the season and getting the most out of outdoor living in Wisconsin.
