Excellent quality

live it love it

all in all a great product. Took my wife and I approximately three weekends to assemble, with the help of some friends for the heavy lifting. Directions are pretty good, got confused a few times but the good thing is that if you do put something together wrong you'll be able to tell it's incorrect because it will not line up with other components. All parts are identified well and they give you extra on every fastener. The kit also includes all the tools required even the wood clamps needed for some of the assemblies. As mentioned before my wife and I did most of the assembly by ourselves, the only thing we need additional help was on putting the two halves of the frame together and lifting the roof panels into place, three people were required for these steps.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased the Brindlewood 10x12 gazebo for our back yard directly from Backyard Discovery. The gazebo was delivered via freight about 15 days later. The packaging was very good and the parts were very well labeled across the different boxes. We installed the unit by ourselves and found the instructions to be very easy to follow. While it was a day and a half project for two people, it was definitely a project that was attainable for the average DIY person. The gazebo is beautiful. Solid cedar and stained ina nice semi-transparent dark walnut color. I needed a few extra parts - probably because of my error, and they were very willing to ship the fasteners to me. Their customer service was fantastic dealing with them when I needed them. I priced out different DIY gazebos as well as custom built patio covers, and Backyard Discovery has the best pricing and product, hands down. Here are a few pictures of our gazebo.

I bought this kit a few weeks ago, I must say that it is the best kit I have ever used! All parts were there and easily identified The directions were very clear and the app on the phone was also useful at times for clarity I built it in less time then estimated and impressed with the quality.

I am extremely happy with my new carport. It works perfectly for me and I keep my Ford F150 in it. We live in the Sierra’s and have to deal with snow. This carport is superb in these conditions. I was originally going to have an attached carport built. This was a much better and more economical solution.

I'm so glad I purchased this carport. Originally, we were going to build on an additional garage, but after getting quotes on a project that size, we started looking at other options. Settled on the Norwood Carport by Backyard Discovery and man I'm glad we went this route. I'm 63 and somewhat handy with building things, so I put it together myself. Obviously, doing it by myself posed a few challenges, but all in all it was a breeze. Very simple install. The step by step directions (included) were great, and the labeling of the pieces was perfect. Total install took me about 2 weeks to complete, but that included some special concrete footings which I poured myself since I was installing it on a slight grade (and it was winter) On a flat space this would be super easy. I was amazed how well engineered this structure is. This thing is awesome. The only assistance I needed was to set the roof panels on. I had the panels ready, so with 4 people, we were able to set the roof panels into place in about 1 hour. Once those were on and in place, I was able to secure them by myself. Making sure all was square and plumb; those roof panels went on very smooth. In hindsight, the only thing I should have done differently; I should have stained all wood prior to install. Also, since it was on a grade, I added (taller) customized 6" x 6" cedar posts to accommodate the grade. I plan to use the extra four 6"x6" cedar posts that came with the unit as fence and gate posts on the backside of the carport. I will add pics later.

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!

We purchased this Norwood 16’ x 12’ gazebo a year ago after discovering we needed some shelter and shade to enjoy our outdoor patio furniture and fire pit. Assembly was not hard but was a little tedious and required a good deal of time as I still work full-time. That said, the instructions were very good, and my wife and I did most of the work. A good friend helped me with the roof and my excellent neighbors helped with the "heavy lift" portion of the build. Once completed, we absolutely loved it! We were spending so much time in it, that I decided to add lights, a ceiling fan, a propane heater, and a television! The television was a little tricky as I needed to protect it from the weather and the ends of the gazebo are basically open. I installed a 4’ x 8’ sheet of ultraviolet-resistant plexiglass in a secure wooden frame and a flip down motorized TV mount. I also added a mesh network satellite to improve streaming and download times. The electrical box supplies enough power and amperage to run all the electrical devices and the drop-down ledge is perfect for charging mobile phones. The entire structure is bolted into the concrete deck and the wood tones matched our patio furniture nicely. We thoroughly enjoy evenings and weekends outdoors watching sunsets, the night sky, and three dachshunds playing in the yard. I cannot recommend this product enough and I am completely satisfied with the purchase. The dachshunds love it, too!

We just got our 12x20 and are almost done with the assembly. The booklet and the app provide very clear instructions on putting it together. That is incredibly helpful. My husband and I have mostly done the work but because it’s springtime, the weather has been our obstacle. We love it so much already that we purchased the grillzebo to match. My son graduates high school in May and we are looking forward to celebrating with him on the new patio with friends and family. We will finally have an outdoor space we have looked forward to for years.
