[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this Pergola a few months ago and we love it. Delivery was great! Assembly was fairly easy with 3 of us (took about 5 hours). We did not use the top layer of wood because we used polycarbonate roofing panels to provide protection during the rain. We also added outdoor curtains from Amazon to provide an additional touch. The pergola feels like it's great material. Overall we very happy with the product. Thanks!

I bought this a little over a month ago and built it myself, putting in a few hours each day over the course of a week. It was so easy to do myself and I only needed help from my husband and freind with the final raising and connection of the 4 sides. I truly appreciated how easy the instructions were to follow and the instruction app made it even easier. I have built a lot of things using assembly instructions and these were by far the best instructions I've experienced. The quality of the materials was impressive as well. The boards were straight and finished, and the cuts were clean. The grooves and the drill holes all lined up. The final pergola is beautiful. I get tons of compliments from friends now. I highly recommend this pergola for both it's beauty and how easy it was to build.

I really like the way it looks. The new mods of a seat and eating bar on the opposite side have made this product even better. It doesn't provide much shade, so I put 2 x 4's in between the roof 2 x 2's and it gives us shade from the hit Texas sun. X

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After looking for a Pergola that would combine both Quality and Economy, I am so happy that I found your product. My wife and I could not be more pleased. The product is a solid quality and after the install and the application of a solid stain, the results are amazing.

We purchased this pergola several months ago and put it up soon after. My husband and I built it and it was not too difficult. The wood and hardware are very sturdy. We did re-stain it before we built it, but we knew we were going to do that when we purchased it. We just wanted a darker color than what it came with. The pergola looks and feels great out by our pool.

I bought this a year ago, May of 2020. All pieces were included and well marked. Based on other reviews we put a clear oil based seal on before putting the pergola together - based on 1 year in use we will likely add another coat this summer. It still looks good but to continue to preserve the wood we will add another coat. This definitely requires 2 people to put it together and sometimes it would have been helpful to have 3 people. I would purchase it again - it's been a nice addition to the patio and provides some shade.

I had 3 helpers assist assembling the pergola without any problems. It took about 8 hours total with multiple breaks in between. The finished product is a solid structure with beautiful cedar consistent color. The 6x6 posts are not solid cedar posts but feel very secure. The cedar and hardware are top quality. I would definitely but this model again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this pergola in the spring. We had 2 smaller resin pergolas in another part of our yard that provided a climbing structure for grapevines. We wanted to move these and provide a more elegant solution. High quality materials and clear assembly instructions facilitated the construction project. We've received many complements on the end results. We are a couple of miles from the coast and In the short time we've had it it's withstood a few hefty windstorms with no issue. This Backyard Discovery 10x10 pergola more than satisfied our expectations.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After our fiasco with Amazon and promising to deliver our pergalo. We were exhausted fighting with Amazon’s trucking firm. A month had almost gone by and we finally got our money back, I called Backyard Discovery direct and within a few days as promised we got our Pergalo and simply love it! Thank you for working with us!

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
