I added 4 feet to the carport height to house my 18 foot travel trailer. I inserted 3.5” x 3.5” x 2’ posts into each 7’ post. I then sandwiched (2) 6” x 1.25” x 4’ cedar boards & (2) 3.5” X 1.25” to the center posts. I then attached the provided baseplates to the new extension posts. The build from that point was normal.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect addition to our backyard. It feels very estately, large, substancial, but provides a cozy space for our yard. The gazebo is very sturdy, solid and has survived 2 snow storms and several wind storms already. We paid for assembly and it was well worth it. It took one (very strong) man 5 hours to set this up. He was definitely a pro, as I'm certain it would have taken us several days to complete.

We bought this a couple of months ago for an added look to our ranch entryway. It looks like Christmas Magic now. Thinking up ways to decorate for other seasons. The compliments from all that have seen it have been wonderful. Postal Carrier made a point to stop and tell us how much she likes the new look.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you take your time with the instructions and app, the assembly goes smooth but slow. The assembly will take a few people to help. After a summer of usage I can say it was a great addition. For the winter it will become shelter storage.

I was hesitant on going with Backyard discovery, you never know how these patio covers are going to look. I looked at some pictures of other patio covers and decided to go with backyard discovery, and I’m so glad we did! It really completes our backyard. And we didn’t only just buy one, we bought two!!! Also bought both for under $10,000, when we got estimates for a vinyl patio for one it was going to be around $20-30,000.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought our gazebo in April 2023 and it has been the best addition to our yard. It gives us much needed shade and is a great entertaining space. The wood is beautiful and has stood up to some crazy summer storms already. Assembly was very easy! I built most parts myself and my husband helped with the heavy lifting and putting the assembled pieces together. We added curtains, lights and a TV and have a whole outdoor space that we use most of the year. If we ever move, I’d buy another Backyard Discovery gazebo in a heartbeat!

We love our 12’ x 10’ Brindlewood Gazebo. The instructions were easy to understand and I was able to assemble most of it myself. I had a couple of friends to help raise the roof. We love making breakfast, grilling lunch and unwinding with cocktails in the evening. We can use it year round and in any weather. Would highly recommend this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Built this over the summer. I was able to build it all by myself except for when I needed to flip the leg sections over. Manufacturer supplied extra of every fastener. Hardware was high quality with a durable painted finish. Instructions were thorough. Beautiful structure and all the bracing inside looks great. I'm using it to store my tractor implements but it would be great as a huge gazebo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this gazebo for my backyard and it’s a beautiful addition to my landscaping. The gazebo is well built and the package included everything that was needed to put it together along with detailed instructions. The contractor that installed it for me was so impressed with the product that he recommended it to several of his customers.

We searched and searched Sam's to get this. My husband was tracking it with an app to know immediately when it came back into stock. It is absolutely gorgeous once assembled. However, unless the 2 people building it are Thor and the Incredible Hulk, you will need more than 2 people. We used 4 at times to get it upright.
