We bought this a couple months ago and finally had good enough weather to build it. I loved the cedar smell that filled our garage! It came in 4 boxes. We stained all the pieces before assembly in our 2 1/2 car garage. We were able to lay all the pieces out on saw horses and the staining process took 3 days to get all pieces stained. The instructions were easy to follow and it took my husband and I two days to assemble without any help. They recommend 3-4 people to help and that's a great idea but if you can't get the help 2 can put it up. You just have to be able to work together!! We weren't sure if we were going to put the small top pieces on but we're glad we did and we love it. Good quality. We were very impresed with the whole process. From ordering to sitting under our new pergola... we love it! I would definitely recommend this product and company. We have no complaints at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this last summer and LOVE it! We placed it on our deck outside of our master bedroom. It adds an entire outdoor living area and so much charm to backyard! We put the plastic sheets over the top so we love to sit outside when it's raining! Highly recommend this pergola!

I left a 1 star review a couple weeks ago because after a month and a half, I hadn't received my pergola. After weeks of being told 'tomorrow' by the shipping company, I went and picked it up myself. The pergola is beautiful and the cedar smells wonderful. It took me about 6 hours to assemble everything except the 1x's on the top. Is give this a 5 if it wasn't for the shipping fiasco.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We planned our backyard patio around the pergola. We laid out the patio stone and ordered what we picked out; unfortunately they told us the stone we selected, or any color stone for that matter, was on back order for 22 weeks. Thank goodness we didn’t order the pergola at the same time. We didn’t want the pergola laying in the driveway in cardboard and getting wet. We had hoped to have everything done for Christmas but thought that was going to be a dream. We checked periodically on the delivery but no one was going to answer. I had counted the weeks out on the calendar and decided to order the pergola. My husband said this is a mistake – the stone will never come in on time. When I ordered the pergola it was scheduled for delivery in 10 days. A few days later the stones came and the crew said they would be on it immediately. Right on time the pergola delivered it silently and in our driveway. Never saw the delivery man or truck. Checked boards and hardware and all appeared fine. The stone completed and we immediately started to build our pergola. My husband and I started and our daughter arrived in time to help. Three days and all is done – one day before Christmas. We celebrated with a dozen family and friends at the table under our pergola. Couldn't be more pleased with our pergola.

We are so surprised at how few boxes arrived for the Pergola. At first we were concerned and immediately opened the boxes to check to ensure it was correct. it was and each part was meticulously labeled. We had read the online reviews for assembling and decided we could tackle on our own. My husband our 25 year old completed the assembly in less than 4 hours. My husband had previously unpacked and laid out all of the pieces and parts, so it was ready to go. The organization took about 2 hours, to include ensuring both drills and batteries were all charged. :-) We are thrilled with the quality of the product! Great value for the price!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased and put together all on my own this spring 2023, NO missing parts, extra hardware and tools included, simple directions (if you like legos - this is a snap). Overall very solid, I pre coated everything with wood sealer prior to assembly. The corbels were a bit tricky to line up with the pre drill positions but a few 36" wood clamps fixed that simple enough. Nothing but compliments from friends and neighbors.

It's a good value and quality compared to other brands. Putting it together was not easy, but it was well worth it. It looks great and it feels very solid. I haven't felt the need to attach it to the ground as it is heavy and will not blow over.

We bought this product about 2 months ago because we wanted to add a nice seating area in our backyard. We love it! Backyard Discovery seems to have a lot of good products. We bought a swing set from them last year and they have both been great quality. The instructions are easy to follow and the pergola is pretty simple to put together for the most part. You can do most of it with two people but it would definitely be handy to have a third when you're standing up the sides otherwise they might fall down (speaking from experience). Overall, it's a great product and exactly what the pictures show you. Highly recommend!

I purchased the 16x12 Beaumont last fall but had to hold on to it for a month before I could have it put up. I was expecting it to take a while to actually get it and I was going to have the patio decked first. It came in a week!! And it smelled GREAT!! I'd go out every few days to smell the boxes haha I love cedar smell. It may have taken a bit longer to put it up than normal because I wanted it attached to my house so we cut the corbels off of one side. Other than that it went up with no problems and I LOVE it!! The birds love it too. They are always hopping around on it which keeps the cats occupied.

I am so happy with my purchase of this pergola. It fits perfect in my space and looks beautiful. We get so many great comments about how pretty it is. We had some issues the installers and Backyard Discovery made it right. I highly recommended anyone that wants a pergola get one from Backyard Discovery. I just ordered the patio cooler to go with it.
