Great price on an excellent product. Very heavy, my wife and I completed this pergola in about 8 hrs on Easter Sunday. We're very happy with end result and found it at a local SamsClub which saved us 200 dollars :)

Pergola

Boards on top were smaller than we expected and found it much cheaper after it was ordered. We thought we would get the best price through Sam’s but this wasn’t the case.

Outstanding buy!

This is an AMAZING pergola! Shipped quickly and was even better in person than photos depict. With two adults, we were able to assemble it in one day. Very pleased with item and would definitely buy again! Highly recommended!!

Ease of installation

My wife wanted a pergola to shade our bedroom and we finally found one that worked for us. I surprised her by putting up in and 2 days by myself while she was out of town.

Beautiful piece!

We love the look and style of this pergola and would definitely recommend this product. Do bear in mind however, that it DOES need two people to set up and if you are not handy with tools, its going to take you 4-6 hours or more to set up. As has been mentioned, the hardware can be a little tough as all the bolts/screws have been painted, but my husband was able to make them all work. Find screws and bolts that work together (some pairs worked together better than others) BEFORE you get on the ladder! We also had a few slightly warped boards which made some of the fitting a little tough but we were able to make it work and it didn't affect the look of the finished product. We thought we were going to have to make some recuts but boards that didn't fit at first fit as it went together. Also someone mentioned its not cedar but pine. My husband said the same thing: smells like pine, light weight wood and we had a little sap on the boards. Overall, we LOVE it and it really is a beautiful addition to our yard.

New Pergola for BBQing with family and friends.

Hi and I'm happy with the pergola. All came out well, I had my son in law and a friend put it together, definitely one needs two persons to do it. I'm in South Florida, where hurricanes are a normal and though we have not been hit by a biggie in a few years, every year we do get one, so we drilled down some sort of anchors and if it comes, we will tighten the poles and some of the cross-bars with adjustable wraps. Finally I will try to paint it with wood protection, Winmax I think it's called, every year. Ah, I'm also going to have a manually retractable Canvas roof built because the sun is burning hence difficult to enjoy in the afternoons. I'm happy and the Pergola is on top of a cement slab in my backyard, not on grass. I recommend it!

Great Pergola!

My husband and I put this up over a weekend with a little help from the neighbor. I would be careful following dimensions for the holes on here. I'm sure people are trying to be helpful, but when I took out the manual, the hole distances were different and had to re-dig holes. I would recommend buying better cement screws if putting in cement.

Perfect Pergola!

I was concerned about the product being delivered by truck but the driver unloaded the boxes and roll them into my garage with a pallet jack. Fairly easy to assemble but I do suggest three people when you go to put the Four Corners together. No problems with components or Hardware. We absolutely love this product and this made a nice addition to our backyard.

Very happy in Texas with our new Pergola.

We love, love, love our new Pergola. We are Retired Seniors and took our time for assembly, it is very hot in Texas this time of year ;-) We decided to add an additional coat of Cedar stain prior to assembly and honestly it didn't take much stain as it was nicely finished when received so we could have forgone that step, it was not necessary. Assembly went very well, if something doesn't line up just loosen the hardware and retry, everything should go together well and did. The hardware was very good quality as was the Cedar wood, first class all the way. We recommend you watch several YouTube videos even if it is not your exact model for tips others have found along the build, it helps. We are recommending this as a nice project to do together and have the satisfaction of saying WE built this ;-) Get yours now before the tariffs ;-( Very happy in Texas with our new Pergola.

Great Value, Quality Product

Very good quality cedar wood and hardware with this kit. With moderate skills, you can assemble in one day. The pergola was delivered to my driveway in two long boxes. A nice looking product after assembly. If you are going to seal or add another coat of stain, doing so before assembly makes the project easier.
