[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this pergola because the reviews on it were excellent and the measurements said it would fit on our concrete slab perfectly. It did not disappoint! From delivery to set up everything went smoothly. Just take time to organize the pieces and it will go up easily. The pieces of cedar were of great quality for the amount that was spent on such a large pergola. It probably took about 8 hours to completely set up from start to finish. The directions were very easy to follow as well. Would definitely recommend this product and company!

[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!

Freight company said the only day they could deliver was a Wednesday. I set up a date (taking a whole day off work) and was told delivery would be between 9am-5pm and they would call a half hour before they would arrive. I had to leave at 3:30 but my husband came home early from work and was home. After no call by 4:45pm, I told my husband he could go ahead and leave to do what he needed to get done. I figured if I got the call at that point, I could be home within 20 min. No call. Got home at 5:15pm and the boxes had been delivered and put in front of garage door. They couldn't even call and ask where to put them. Meanwhile, I spent my whole day with my phone by my side and not doing errands, so I was abiding by their delivery terms. Also, this was a "shocking deal" when I purchased it. Regular price said $2100. Now the price listed is the same price I paid. So much for a special savings price. Very deceptive.

Staycation is my back yard. I regret waiting to many years before I added the Backyard Discovery Pergola to my backyard. It’s created a living space I’ve never had in my own yard. My contractor was hesitant when he say the boxes. But I arrived back at noon and it was completed. He said the construction was high quality, instructions were easy. In fact he has recommended and installed several Backyard Disciry Pergolas after his experience with mine. My only regret- not purchasing it sooner. Thank you

I bought this in spring 2024 and my husband and I installed it in February of this year. We had a concrete slab poured and attached the metal plates to it after building the pergola. This past weekend we had an EF-1 tornado come through our property, winds were estimated at 110 mph, this pergola is still standing and unscathed!!! We had 30 foot trees uprooted and thrown to the ground. We are very impressed with the quality and build of this structure, 100% recommend!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So excited to finally have my pergola and new patio completed! This pergola is beautiful and heavy duty. It only took a few hours to put it together. All pieces/parts were included. Waiting on outdoor furniture to arrive and will add lights soon. If you’re on the fence about this purchase, I highly recommend!

Handyman and myself put it together in 13 hours over two days. Wife thinks it’s great. Pieces were well marked and the bags of hardware were also well marked. The only thing missing were two pilot holes but extremely minor point. Well pleased with the product.

This Pergola looks outstanding! Its a great addition to our backyard. It was very easy to anchor, which I thought it wouldn't be. I haven't noticed anything wrong with it, but i haven't sat and stared at it either. It would be nice if a cover was sold for it. So if anyone has any suggestions on that, plz share!

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

Overall the pergola is very nice and instructions were clear. Unfortunately the instructions for how long the base is were wrong. All the concrete was laid out exactly to their plan of 114" on center, but when assembled the posts were just over 115" on center. I recommend building all of the long pieces FIRST, then calculate how far apart the posts will be. I am a woodworker and teach engineering. Normally you would cut everything to size as you are building because there can be some changes in wood or other things. So for a pre-made, pre-drilled pergola it's understandable that some holes don't line up, kind of annoying the post distance wasn't correct as they will not be centered on my columns. One thing to add, all of the pieces are short and use a lap joint and bolts to secure them. Cedar is a soft wood, so I glued all of the lap joints and bolted them. Because all of the pieces are bolted together I would not trust standing or putting anything heavy on top. From a learning experience, I recommend building all of the long parts in sections and then sealing them before assembly. Overall it is a fairly good product. The only reason I did not build this from scratch is because the price of lumber to make something similar would have been as much or more than the kit. Had I known all of the long pieces were bolted lap joints and the 6x6 columns are hollow I may have just held out and designed and built my own.
