This Gazebo has been an absolutely beautiful addition to our backyard outdoor patio! I could not LOVE it more! It arrived in several boxes and was packaged very carefully! All hardware was labeled and easy to find! The assembly does take some time however, the app (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!) was tremendous! It was step by step instructions with CLEAR directions! This avoided any confusion with assembly! Again, the app is fabulous! The roof panels were in excellent shape and easily assembled however, you will need at least 3 strong men to lift and hold the panels in place in order to assemble the roof! It took about 2 days from start to finish (we completed assembly in a weekend). Once we finished the gazebo, my husband went the extra mile and used pavers to create a pillar around each post. We added solar lights and bought a round table with 6 chairs to complete the space. I absolutely LOVE this gazebo and how it turned out! The quality of all the pieces is superb! I highly recommend this product!!

We purchased our Cordova 14X10 Gazeebo in July and had it installed on our pool deck on four foot deep concrete footers. One of the main reasons we went with Backyard Discovery was the ability for the structure to withstand heavy winds. I live in the Tampa area and we just went through Hurricane Milton last night. I had major concerns about the metal roof and when I woke up this morning, the entire structure was completely intact. Apart from the being a beautiful structure, it’s amazing to see that it withstood 90 mph gusts and sustained winds of 75 mph for several hours. If you want a well built and beautiful pavilion, I’d highly recommend Backyard Discovery. We couldn’t be more pleased.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love our new gazebo. It is well built and roomy. We use it during summer for family get togethers or just sit and relax in. It is spacious and comfortable and with the breeze coming in it is just wonderful.

We just had this installed today and are extremely happy with it! I'm glad we paid for assembly as it comes in so many pieces. The entire process was so good - notifications about delivery dates and setting up the installation date. The installers were incredible and did an outstanding job. We couldn't be happier and would highly recommend (in the Los Angeles area - can't speak about installers elsewhere).

overall the only gazebo I've seen that should handle Buffalo NY snow.\nThe Bilt app is a real help. part numbers stamped on board edges are nearly impossible to read. Removable stickers would be a big help.\n99 % of pre drilled holes line up. overall would recommend, but installed myself because the installation company (Go Configure) stiffed twice. \n built roof panels in garage and had 4 adults install roof sections.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this unit just before July 4th and was able to put the unit up almost by myself. The instructions were easy to follow, all parts were properly labeled and pre drilled. If I had room I'd buy a second one

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I assembled this by myself, with the exception of lifting the finished roof panels up at the final stage. It was a few hours a day, for 4-5 days to get the job done, and the instructions were very clear. There was an appropriate amount of extra fasteners provided - if you drop a washer or two, it's ok - there are a few extra. The finished product looks great, and has been a great addition to our new back patio and fireplace.

I purchased this gazebo this summer and hired someone to assemble it for me. They never found time so I did it myself. I must say there are so many good things about this set. Very good quality materials that for the most part fit together like a glove. They even give you extra screws/bolts/washers which I needed because I dropped a few in the grass and could not find them and I stripped a couple screws (my fault). I did have a few problems but since I am not a professional handy man, it could of been my fault. You must get the roof framing within the correct dimensions as stated in the instructions. The 10' sides were off a slight bit and I could not get it fixed. This caused a little problem later. The roof pieces are heavy so it will take 3 strong people to set them up and secure them. The paper instructions were OK but I had to use Youtube to verify some things...and there's an app you can download too that helps allot. If you are considering it, do it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this over the summer and after a couple of days of work to install (rain delay) the end result is beautiful. It’s solidly built and stands up to high wind. The 12 v outlet allowed us to install a nice light fixture in the middle. I’m considering getting another in a smaller size for our pool area.

This Gazebo is engineered well, packaged great and if you follow the written instructions you will not have a problem. Now with that said, please put the 10 hours of intermediate assembly time out of your head, it takes much more that that. I consider myself advanced when it comes to assembly of something like this and other than needing help to raise the roof panels and adding the side trim I built it myself and I am 64. The roof panel install took 1 1/2 hours with three people and you will need that many in my opinion. Follow all the tips and instructions in the manual. I really recommend spending the time to open every box and remove everything. Keep all the hardware in their bags so you can reference the part number. Organize the wood, hardware and other misc. parts. Regarding the kit I received, nothing was broken or missing. If you are following the instructions everything fits together as intended. If you are finding yourself wanting to rework something you are probably building it wrong. All bolt locations and pilot holes were where they should be. I built this Gazebo on a new paver patio. The 4 x 4's shown in the picture were squared and spanned using the drawing in the manual to support the Gazebo and are buried in concrete 30" down. I did not want to anchor the Gazebo to the pavers or pour separate slabs but instead wanted to use Lag Bolts through the Gazebo columns which I knew were hollow into the 4 x 4's. Again in my opinion this how I wanted to support lateral forces and wind load. When you first open all the boxes and see all the parts the project looks overwhelming. But in truth it's not and if you take your time you will be happy with the build. This is a very robust, well designed and manufactured product that in no way looks cheap sitting on your patio.
