[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this gazebo recently and couldn’t be happier with it! The quality of the wood exceeded my expectations and everyone that has seen it just Loves it. This is a Quality product for a Fair price. I live in Michigan and this provides premium shelter year round. I have added brown tarps for the winter and a patio heater and am extremely satisfied.

I have zero complaints, love the final product. No missing pieces, and instructions were easy to follow. You do have to be somewhat handy to put it all together, and if you dont square it up the roof panels will not go on right. That was the only thing with the set up i would warn people about. And it 100% is not a one person job.

I can’t say enough good things about this gazebo. First of all the instructions were provided in an app that was super interactive. You could pinch and zoom and rotate each detailed step. I absolutely loved the instructions. The materials were great quality, the holes all matched up, this thing was a dream to assemble. The only thing that would have made things any easier is if the hardware for each step were combined into bags that included the parts needed for each step, instead of having all the screws together and all the washers together, etc.

We bought this a couple of months ago for an added look to our ranch entryway. It looks like Christmas Magic now. Thinking up ways to decorate for other seasons. The compliments from all that have seen it have been wonderful. Postal Carrier made a point to stop and tell us how much she likes the new look.

I bought this gazebo to replace an existing Tiki hut with a deteriorating thatched roof. I love the clean lines of this structure and how it fits into my poolside space. I especially like the durability of the metal roof and the wind rating (we’ve had two major storms this year with tropical storm force winds and no damage to report)

Based on the reviews I read before purchasing I expected to be very pleased with the product and overall experience - including the assembly process. I can say that this expectation was met! The product was packaged well and arrived completely undamaged. The assembly instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. That said - preparing and assembling this item is a BIG job... We decided to stain all of our wood pieces before assembling, which in hindsight I'm very glad we went this route. I did most of the work on my own, but there are several steps where several people are definitely needed. Getting the roof panels on, squared and attached was a bit of a challenge, but we got it all in place after some trial and error. The entire process took several weekends to complete. It's been up for couple of weeks now and has already been through several rain storms and a couple of thunderstorms. Happy to say it's held up w/o any issues!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our big project this summer was to add a swim spa to our back patio. As we live on a heavily wooded lot, we decided to purchase a gazebo to erect over the pool in order to afford it some protection from falling branches, leaves, etc. After much research, we chose Backyard Discovery's 12'x16" Norwood. We settled on this company due to their consistently positive reviews, high quality & attractive designs. Our gazebo was delievered quickly & complete. Instructions were straightforward & easy to understand, with everything clearly labeled. This may sound like a small detail, but on a large project like this it makes a big difference: Drilled holes were where they were supposed to be & bolts aligned as projected, making assembly as stress-free as possible. Our gazebo is now a beautiful, functional addition to our backyard. We have been delighted with every aspect of our purchase. From choice, to deivery, assembly to contributing to the aesthetic of our home, we couldn't possibly be more happy with our Backyard Discovery gazebo.

Everyone loves the gazebo, but you should know the corner posts are hollow and the long sides come in 3 separate pieces bolted together. Also, the metal roof doesn't have flashing at the side trim but really should have to prevent or ice from building on your roof. Design is nice once you finally get it together!

My husband and I bought the gazebo for cover over our patio area by our swimming pool. To be honest I was hesitant at first because it was a “kit” but it was easy to follow directions and put together. It is also very sturdy and solid. It’s a beautiful addition to our backyard area!

We bought this a month ago. I took my time putting it up but we have been out under it every night since. The directions were very easy to follow and the holes all lined up perfectly. I was very impressed. I did have to alter the directions a bit, because I was building most of it alone, but the finished product is extremely sturdy and looks beautiful. Already have neighbors asking where we got it. I did shop around, and found Backyard Discovery to have a superior product and reasonably priced. I feel confident it will withstand a NH winter. I will let you know!
