Looks Amazing

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.

Absolutely beautiful!

After purchasing and losing many pop up gazebos to the wind, we finally took the leap and bought this heavy duty wood gazebo. We couldn't be happier!! The icing on the cake is having the charging station. We hung Edison lights and it looks so pretty at night! Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely Gorgeous!

I was debating for a few weeks to purchase this carport and was worried about the quality of material. I decided to pull the trigger and am very pleased with the Norwood Carport/Gazebo. We have set up an outdoor dining area in our backyard and it provides adequate shade during the hot summer months. 5-stars!

Beautiful Kit, but assembly can be a challenge

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was delivered in late Sept, but sat in my driveway until early Nov. because I couldn't find someone to help me assemble. So I had some time off and decided to try it alone, and I'm glad I did. Everything is well labeled, all the components, and multiple bags of connectors and other parts. I set up all my sawhorses to stack and organize the amazing smelling cedar components. I commandeered my picnic table to arrange all the connector bags by type and number. I downloaded Bilt, and between it and the printed instructions, I made good headway putting things together over a few days. Then it came time to raise the Gable ends, which definitely needs at least 2 people to do. I drafted my fiance to help after work, and in the dark, we got it standing up and put together. Then, a few more days of working alone assembling all of the roof panels on the ground. I found and hired a local handyman to help me with lifting the roof panels into place and securing them and I'm glad I did. This is the most difficult part of the assembly, and it was at times frustrating and left us scratching our heads. The holes for securing the upper facia to the ridge rafter are poorly located, where you cannot use a power tool to drive the bolts. Furthermore, you have to support the roof panel while simultaneously screwing the bolts in by hand with the torx wrench, or else the load of the panel on the bolt as you try to screw it in makes it impossible. Finally, the bolts are being received by T-nuts inside the ridge rafter, and a few of those came loose to the point that the bolts weren't screwing into anything. Very frustrating, but we got just enough of them in to hold the panels in place. The first four panels are "easy" to place before securing, but the last ones on each side are difficult to fit. We also found that the holes in the rafter truss' did not match up with the holes in the roof rafters. More head scratching, eventually drilling/securing the truss' in place when we made sure that everything was keeping its correct dimensions. It took 2 of us 6 hours to place the roof, but we got it done. With the ladder still up, I drove a few 2.5" deck screws through the upper fascia boards into the ridge rafter to make sure the panels were well secured. I had to then travel for a week of work, so I have yet to place the ridge cap and drip edges, and as can be seen in the photos, snow has come to Northern Michigan. My car is clean underneath, and, despite the challenges in assembly, I am VERY PLEASED with the finished product. It looks better than ANY of the other pergolas I considered, and 90% of the assembly experience was perfect and easy. I look forward to many years of shade and dryness under it, and I am so happy I spent my money on a Backyard Discovery product.

Great gazebo, minor issues with assembly

We purchased this gazebo from a big box store and built it ourselves. The final product is great, we have really been enjoying it! 4/5 stars because some of the instructions could have been more clear, and some of the parts in the kit were missing or incorrect. Backyard Discovery was great in that they shipped us new and correct parts, no questions asked.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A little piece of heaven! What a wonderful addition to our yard! The Norwood is extraordinarily sturdy , and made of quality wood! The roof is strong and can truly withstand our northeast weather! The entire gazebo has been well thought out…The angles, color, and accents are all beautiful. We chose to have our gazebo delivered and put together. The team that came was wonderful! They worked together like a fine tuned clock. We love our gazebo! The added electric with usb ports just made the Norwood that much more special. A sturdy addition to our deck. Don’t wait….get one today!!!!

Great carport

Bought mine several months ago. Very pleased with the craftsmanship and detailed instructions. Had contractors put it up. Could have done it myself(but not a one man job) Looks great and with the sturdy construction, it will be around for years to come.

Cozy Outdoor Retreat

This gazebo was the perfect addition to our backyard. It is sturdy and very well made. The instructions and BILT app were easy to follow and our family of 5 put it together over a weekend. We ended up staining our deck the same color as the Norwood Gazebo because the wood accents the black hardware so well. We couldn't be happier with our outdoor grilling and gathering spot. Highly recommend!

Looks great

I bought this because it looked like a good value, and everything was included. I pre stained mine, and I would recommend doing it, It will add a couple of days to the assembly time. I was short some hardware. Most of the hardware bags had 1 extra piece , however some were short several pieces. I did erect this myself, except for the roof, with many saw horses, and scaffolding.

Great addition to the park

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased two of these gazebos for the HOA park. They made a great addition and look really nice. Excellent looking construction. The team of assemblers put them together expediently. One post came with some shipping gouges and customer service was quick to send out a replacement. Forgive the white specks in the photos, we are getting ready to test the snow load. Now we just need to find someone who can build a matching unit 24x12.
