I purchased this pergola with very minimal building/construction experience outside of of small furniture. I didn’t know what to expect, but I needed some shade in my yard and much faster than companies could come out to build one for me. I ordered the product and it arrived fast! I built it with the help one person and it was a breeze. I did have to borrow a few neighbors to help move the completed product, but that took no time and it was a breeze. Unfortunately, I sold that home and have relocated so I do not get to enjoy it at the moment, but I am considering another for my new home and doing it all over again. Also, so many people that came and viewed my home commented on how great it looked and couldn’t believe I built it myself! It certainly added more value than the price I paid and looking forward to getting another soon!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this in July and assembled it myself with my son over several weekends. we did have a few few issues like the concrete anchor, bolts snapped they appear to be made out of aluminum and should be made out of steel. Some of the pilot holes for the purlins did not lineup so we created our own pilot holes. But overall it’s wonderful. I enjoy sitting out in the evenings with shade and coffee on the weekend mornings.

I’ve owned my house 31 yrs and regret not adding this pergola years ago! It’s created living space in a part of my yard I never used til now. My contractor was skeptical. He planned a day to build the deck and 2 days to build the pergola kit. He arrived at 6AM with his crew of two. When I returned at noon they were almost done!! They said kit was easy and well built. In fact he has ordered kits from you for other projects. He said more economical and time saving than have his crew build from scratch. The deer watched the crew built it and quickly realized they now need to share the yard with us.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I admit that I was sceptical, but the ease of assembly. The soft feel of fine cedar, sanded to perfection , nair splinter be found. Stright forward instructions, that must have been written by someone who has put one together first

This totally transformed our backyard into a new space to entertain. The size of it gives you so much freedom and flexibility in how you want to arrange your furniture. Now I just wish we lived somewhere warmer and could use it 12 months out of the year!

My wife and I were able to build and install the pergola on our own. We loved the quality of the materials and how all the pieces came together perfectly. We did not have to re-drill any holes. Everything lined up and fit like a glove. One recommendation is you pay very close attention to the diagrams and make sure you are putting the pieces together just like the diagrams. We have a couple that we did not put together the first time correctly.

This is a two person project and was completed in under 8 hours. Everything piece of wood is labeled, including the screws. Instructions are easy to follow and downloadable app with instructions and 3d visuals ensure you move from step to step with confidence and ease! The finished product is beautiful and makes a big statement!!

I love everything about our new Backyard Discovery Pergola. Ordering was easy, and it was shipped right to my door. Communication with the shipping company was fast and easy. I had intended to install it myself but other things took my time so I hired the company suggested and they were very professional and did a great job. This will infancy our enjoyment of our backyard for years to come.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So excited to finally have my pergola and new patio completed! This pergola is beautiful and heavy duty. It only took a few hours to put it together. All pieces/parts were included. Waiting on outdoor furniture to arrive and will add lights soon. If you’re on the fence about this purchase, I highly recommend!
