Climate Changer

Bought and installed a month ago, One beam was was 1/2” to long but BD overnighted a replacement beam. The install otherwise went flawlessly. Could have inbuilt this in one day but for the replaced Part. Instructions and Service were good. We are enjoying the flexibility of the louverrd operation and really enjoy the shade and definition it gives our patio.

Beautiful, sturdy, and practical!

We have had our 14 x 10 Sarasota Pergola for almost a year now. It's been through rain, 80 mph windstorms, and a lot of sunshine, and we have been thrilled. If I could do it over again, I would have hired professional installers. Getting it put together is a two-man job, but securing it to the patio is a job for professionals, or people who really know their construction. I appreciated the clear marking of all the parts - that made assembly easier. the 14 x 10 size is ample for a 10 foot table. But most of all, it's a wonderful addition to our yard, and we love it.

Ready for Summer!

Our family purchased this 14x10 after deciding the louvered feature would be perfect for the inconsistent weather Oregon can provide. Already we have seen it work wonders in diverting rain when closed and keeping my kids happy and dry while they do school work. Installation was easy enough and all items were in great condition. Thank you!

Good but no option for patio shades

I like the pergola itself because there is one major issue - no option to add patio shades! , Due to the direction of the sun, we can not use the pergola passed 3PM which is a big bummer. Patio shades would have been a solution but Backcountry doesnt have any for their pergola.

Very Disappointed

I've had decent luck with BYD products in the past, but not this time around. The included bolts are very low quality, and break easily. Also, 3 out of 4 posts had a visible twist. Also some of the pieces could have been attached, saving assembly time for the customer.

Great features!

When we started seeing pergolas set up in stores and some friends and family that had them, we wanted that look for our backyard. We wanted quality and durability and we definitely have that in choosing the Sarasota 14x10 Louvered Steel pergola from Backyard Discovery. This pergola is amazing!  We love the look, quality, durability, louvers and gutter drainage. With time and patience, the set up was easy if you follow the step by step instructions.  I would absolutely recommend this pergola. Looking forward to enjoying our new pergola this summer!

Nice design

Bought this a couple of weeks ago. Installed it in about 6 hours today. I was wondering how smooth it would operate the louvers, but I am very pleased with it. It's only been a day, but so far I absolutely love it. Well designed. Fairly simple to install, needed 3 guys but mostly just to set the beams upright. Other than that really could do it yourself, but probably best to have 2.

So many things I love about my new Pergola!

I am in love with my new pergola. It has brought our backyard to a new level! The louvers allow us to get some shade on hotter days, and allow us to let the sun shine in when its a bit chilly, allowing us to utilize our outdoor space more often. The outlets and usb ports have really come in handy when we have company. Friends can charge their phones and it allows us to easily plug in a speaker when needed. Our old pergola did not have gutters when caused it to be unusable if there was rain as you would get splashed when sitting underneath. It is like we have another room in our house!

Well-made and looks great!

We purchased a larger side version for one portion of our deck then purchased this smaller size to fit another portion of our deck. It's well made and had a sleek look to it. We hired a handyman to assemble and bolt to our deck. We like being able to open and close the slats on top. Very easy to use and provides total coverage when it rains. The drainage system works well. We sometimes get high winds where we live but have had no issues with structural integrity.

Stylish and sturdy!

My search for a stylish and functional pergola is over. After purchasing and installing this pergola, I can confidently say it has transformed my backyard into a welcoming retreat. The construction of this pergola is impressive. Made from steel, it has a sturdy frame with powder-coated finish adding to its durability but also to its aesthetic appeal, seamlessly blending into my outdoor space. One of the standout features is its adjustable roof. This design allows me to control the amount of sunlight and shade that filters through, providing customizable comfort throughout the day. Assembly of the pergola was surprisingly straightforward, thanks to the detailed instructions provided. While it may require some time and effort, the end result was well worth it. I appreciated the pre-drilled holes and labeled parts, which streamlined the process and ensured a precise fit. Once assembled, the Sarasota pergola instantly elevated our backyard. Its sleek and modern design adds a touch of sophistication. In terms of functionality, the Sarasota pergola excels in providing both shelter and style. Additionally, the integrated gutter system efficiently manages rainwater runoff, ensuring a dry and comfortable space underneath. Overall, I am thoroughly impressed with the Sarasota Steel Pergola. Its combination of durability, versatility, and aesthetic appeal make it a standout choice for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor living experience.
