instructions were fairly clear and easy to follow with a little study. There were a couple spots where you are supposed to do one side, get down, move the ladder, repeat on the other side, repeat, repeat, repeat. It was far more logical and a lot easier to do 4 or 5 steps on one so side then the other. Materials were satisfactory except for the concrete anchors. A full third of them broke before reaching proper depth. Overall, we like it, and would get another one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everything went great, the support staff was great and supplied tools great! The greatest thing was the carports made it thru two very bad storms, with wind gusts up to 120 mph, and they were both fine no issues at all, excellent materials.

The gazebo turned out pretty good. Not to bad to build. My only complaint would be the wood. I thought I was getting cedar. Turns out it is Chinese cedar. It's not really cedar, but part of the cypress family. It has the same general qualities of cedar, rot resistance, keeps insects away. The wood on my gazebo is stained from the factory. The wood splits really easy and exposes the white wood underneath. Some of the bolts and fasteners broke or stripped pretty easy, but they do have a few extras in the bags. Overall it's solid and will keep the rain and sun off of us when needed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased the Brindlewood 10x12 gazebo for our back yard directly from Backyard Discovery. The gazebo was delivered via freight about 15 days later. The packaging was very good and the parts were very well labeled across the different boxes. We installed the unit by ourselves and found the instructions to be very easy to follow. While it was a day and a half project for two people, it was definitely a project that was attainable for the average DIY person. The gazebo is beautiful. Solid cedar and stained ina nice semi-transparent dark walnut color. I needed a few extra parts - probably because of my error, and they were very willing to ship the fasteners to me. Their customer service was fantastic dealing with them when I needed them. I priced out different DIY gazebos as well as custom built patio covers, and Backyard Discovery has the best pricing and product, hands down. Here are a few pictures of our gazebo.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After comparing several gazebos by several companies we decided on the 14x12 Norwood Gazebo. It is stylish and outdoorsy. We are almost wanting to sell our camper because we are finding the gazebo area so enjoyable. This adds plenty of shade and protection from the rain. We love it!

I looked for several weeks to find this product. Everyone seemed to be out of stock. I located it out of state and had it shipped to me. No major complaints. Fit and finish is excellent. all the parts are of very high quality. I added the bench swing and some LED string lights. This is a great addition to my backyard!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this and scrambled to get it up before the rain set in. This carport not only looks amazing but we get asked about it sll the time , people telling us how great it looks and they would like to have something like it!

Given the global logistics issues, it is understandable that this China-made product will be delayed. But the delivery issues were "last mile" with the US-based group. Once we got it, though, we were very pleased. The materials are good quality, instructions are sufficient and parts labels are very helpful. It does take a few strong people and at least 10 hours to assemble, so be prepared. The product support, including an app, seem like an advantage, too. We hope to enjoy this for a while.

The instructions are extremely well. The best I've ever seen. The quality of the wood and hardware is extremely good. This far exceeded my expectations. I did not want an unfinished wood look.So I primed and painted the wood prior to building the structure

Could not be happier with our Gazebo choice. My husband and I put it together ourselves in just over 6hrs. Quality construction with decent instructions. We receive compliments each time visitors see it, several are now looking to purchase the same product!
