Beautiful pergola! I’ve had my eyes out for something beautiful, fairly easy to assemble, and complementary to my little backyard space. My mom, dad and I put it together in a day (took us about 7 hours from start to finish). It’s lovely, was not missing any parts. Be careful with putting the top pieces of wood on - it’s not one long strip, it’s 3 smaller strips you secure together. We broke one, but finagled it together without an issue. I love it! Perfect space to enjoy a drink with family and friends after a day of work! Unfortunately the system isn’t working to let me upload a photo.

I purchased two of these in 2023 on sale for $809 a piece. I wanted something cedar but with a more solid top. Therefore I made a modification to the structure that added a slope an additional beams for the load capacity. I then put the slats provided on top of the knee structure and then roofed the entire thing with Ondura premium panels. These panels are light weight, easy to install, and have withstand several years of rain, snow and sunlight.

Poor design. The beams for the long sides have doublers to keep the beam stiff. However the short sides do not causing cracking when attempting to raise them up. Also, it's poor quality wood. One of the main posts has a split approx. 2 feet long which if left unfixed, will allow moisture in cause rot from this inside out .

I have never had a "kit" to build something where every hole lined up, not only was all the hardware there, but there were extras of every piece, and it all went together easily. My sone and I did most of the work, and we had a third helper for a couple hours to erect it and attach the side beams. 6 1/2 hours from start to finish it was done. I really like this Pergola and am very pleased with this purchase.

I can’t speak to durability of the pergola because it is new. The wood seems to be in good condition although a few pieces were warped. I was able to pull the war page out during install. The best part of this purchase is the amazing customer service and support from Backyard Discovery. They are amazing and very responsive. They helped me with every question and provided everything I needed including some extra parts and hardware at not charge. I want to thank Backyard Discovery for everything to make the pergola awesome!

I've been looking at this gazebo for quite some time, but I kept second guessing it! By the time I purchased it, I was really getting excited! I must say it turned out exactly like I wanted it to look! I love it so much. I paid three guys to come out and set it up for me. It took them probably about five hours. I love it. I love it. I love it. I sit outside every single day. In perfect bliss!! Best money ever spent!! ***Attempted to attach photos several times different days and it won't “perform the operation”. Ugh. But love this pergola!

In my opinion this is a nice addition to our backyard patio. I took a couple days setting up. laid out all the materials and then started the setup. a couple pieces that were missed in thr drilling process but simple fix. You want a nice pergolla then purchase this one. Heavy duty but easy to setup if you have any construction knowledge at all.. if you dont have construction knowledge it is still pretty simple. Written directions and an online tutorial available. (which I didn't use). It was also on sale at Sams club which was a selling point and happened to be the last one at my nearest club. if you want a pergolla.. get this one is my suggestion.

After 9 months, I'm coming back to review. This was a fantastic purchase. The assembly was in an afternoon, with me and my husband, but I could have assembled it alone. The quality is excellent, and it looks the same as the day we installed it. Don't worry, buy it.

We purchased 2 of these pergolas to put on our SW-facing courtyard to make it more usable in the summers. We had to adapt them a bit to fit the area, but my husband assembled them himself. Although there were a couple of surprises and problems along the way, the company stands behind the product 100%. If parts are missing or damaged, they ship them out immediately and make everything right. The pergolas are sturdy and beautiful. We're very glad to have chosen this product!

I saw this in store and immediately went online to order it with my free shipping. I store advertised $999 and showed an electrical box AND a sun shade. Needless to say, I should have opened and check the boxes. I had a team come and assemble today and we were looking everywhere for a sunshade. Needless to say I went back to online pictures and descriptions- there was no sunshade mentioned. Word to the wise Sam's, please advertise your product correctly without add ons, or have a separate price for the add on. Overall, it's beautiful and such a great deal.
