[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were looking to update our backyard for more outdoor living space, and saw the Norwood Gazebo. We wanted something sturdy enough to handle the weather in the northeast (rain, wind, snow, heat), and this was it. We cannot be more thrilled with how it turned out. All of our friends love it! It took a few weekends to set up, and I would say to have 3 people help to set it up. I love it, and cannot wait to keep using it!

The kit arrived at an incredibly busy time for me. We had just moved and I had many tasked to complete before leaving the country for two weeks. On Sunday night I decided my slate was open for Monday so I began reading and trying to understand the assembly instructions. Monday at 5:00 AM I began unboxing and stacking pieces in a logical placement. With a few breaks to recover from the heat, I had the gazebo erected and fully complete at 7:30 PM. We are thrilled with how this looks and are now excited to return to out home in 7 days to begin enjoying this idyllic space created under our Backyard Discovery 16x12 Norwood Gazebo. What a wonderful addition to our yard.

We love our new gazebo. We bought this beautiful and durable shelter this summer. Our expectations have been exceeded because of the craftsmanship built into every piece. Everyone that comes to backyard is amazed at this new gathering place. Thank you this product it is impressive

We purchased this Norwood 16’ x 12’ gazebo a year ago after discovering we needed some shelter and shade to enjoy our outdoor patio furniture and fire pit. Assembly was not hard but was a little tedious and required a good deal of time as I still work full-time. That said, the instructions were very good, and my wife and I did most of the work. A good friend helped me with the roof and my excellent neighbors helped with the "heavy lift" portion of the build. Once completed, we absolutely loved it! We were spending so much time in it, that I decided to add lights, a ceiling fan, a propane heater, and a television! The television was a little tricky as I needed to protect it from the weather and the ends of the gazebo are basically open. I installed a 4’ x 8’ sheet of ultraviolet-resistant plexiglass in a secure wooden frame and a flip down motorized TV mount. I also added a mesh network satellite to improve streaming and download times. The electrical box supplies enough power and amperage to run all the electrical devices and the drop-down ledge is perfect for charging mobile phones. The entire structure is bolted into the concrete deck and the wood tones matched our patio furniture nicely. We thoroughly enjoy evenings and weekends outdoors watching sunsets, the night sky, and three dachshunds playing in the yard. I cannot recommend this product enough and I am completely satisfied with the purchase. The dachshunds love it, too!

We love the gazebo and had it installed by Sam’s. We didn’t know it at the time but the roofing metal had a blue film to protect it from getting scratched during shipment. The installer either didn’t know or just didn’t bother to take it off. Now it is coming off on its own and it looks terrible. I would give this product a 5 if it wasn’t for this issue with the plastic film. It is to get it the removed now.

The gazebo assembly went really well, and it looks great adjacent to the house. I did not appreciate getting an email the day I received it saying that to maintain my warranty, I would have to perform labor on the gazebo that would far exceed the cost. Better to just tell customers there is no warranty, as that would have been more truthful.

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This past fall I purchased two gazebos. One to use as a carport and one to use as a regular gazebo. But my little car fit nicely under the small gazebo so now it’s a carport. I’m very happy with the purchase. The assembly team did a great job also.

It has been 1 year since we bought and installed our gazebo and have had Zero issues. I highly recommend downloading the installation app in conjunction with the manual. It was a simple but time consuming install. It was well packaged and easy to locate part numbers. After assembly, it is very sturdy beautiful wood and design.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I put this together over the summer with the help of my neighbors. I worked on it an hour or two at a time and it took me about a week. I was missing one piece and backyard discovery sent it out to me right away. I also built a small deck to put it on. I'm very happy with the finished product. Everyone that comes over loves it!
