We wanted a pergola to go on our outdoor patio to help block some of the sun but not block it out completely. I found this pergola on Sams.com and it was the perfect size and with the added outlet feature it was a no brainer. Some of the wood pieces came warped which made installation a bit challenging but I made it work.

I purchased this to be the foundation of a larger project that my wife tasked me with. As my woodworking skills are basic I wanted a solid structure as the foundation that I could then have confidence in adding to. We are delighted with the finished product because of the foundation it was built upon

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before purchasing the Somerville Pergola our Patio was unappealing. The Pergola is beautiful and made our patio very inviting. We now enjoy sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air. While you can buy cheaper Pergola's you certainly won't get the quality that this Somerville one offers. We absolutely love it!

I've had this pergola for almost a year now. It has gotten through one Arizona summer with no problems. I haven't seen any warping or fade spots. You will definitely need more than one person to install. It was a breeze with four people. Just make sure you have a level surface to start and pay attention to detail. I used the instruction manual instead of the app to install. For me it was easier following the steps in the manual.

I have purchased 2 of these pergolas, one for each my front and back patio. I am a 58 yo female and have assembled them both with a little help from my daughters. I can’t say enough about the quality of this product. The kit comes with everything you need but a few tool, the directions are easy to follow and more importantly all of the pre-drilled holes are spot on. These pergolas are beautiful, substantial and top quality. Mine have been tested with 35 mph winds and held up great. I cannot recommend this product enough.

I bought this last summer and got it set up right away. It is a good size and great price. I do wish it had more coverage from the sun, but I was able to put a sail over it and it works great. I moved it a couple of times, and although it's heavy, it didn't break.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I built a patio in our back yard and we added this pergola to that space. It is now a beautiful feature that is also functional with the power ports. I was able to sting some colorful outdoor lights around the top of the pergola so we can set the mood after dark. I was also able to build a removable projector mount that allows us to watch movies projected onto a nearby wall. We're really enjoying the space more than we imagined! Building the pergola was a little challenging at times because a couple of the long bolts cross-threaded into their respective nuts...so they ended up locking up and stripped the threads. There were a couple of extra nuts/bolts so it wasn't a major concern. However even with the extras, there was 1 long bolt that I simply have to live with knowing that it didn't fasten completely/tightly. All-in-all, I am very satisfied with this pergola and would definitely recommend it to others.

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.

From the great instructions to the final result, this pergola is exactly the thing I was hoping for. It has added a whole new dimension to my yard and expanded the living space. We have delighted in sitting under it in the morning with coffee and the evening with homemade wine. Thank you for a beautiful structure! (My husband is talking about adding one to our vacation home as well.)

We purchased this pergola a year ago when we were in the middle of our backyard renovation. I'd dreamt of having this pergola in my yard for about ten years, and it's everything I'd hoped for! You definitely need multiple people to put it together, and I highly recommend getting footers poured so you can secure it. My husband had four friends come over for a "barn raising" of sorts, and that was super helpful. It's stood up to all kinds of weather, including some seriously high wind gusts. It's just gorgeous! We added market lights (that power box is super handy) and put down pavers below for a real oasis.
