thrilled with our 12'x16' Norwood Gazebo

[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.

Straightforward assembly and stylish look

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this gazebo after looking at a lot of other kits. The price was right and it had the look we wanted, plus it was all cedar. I was most impressed by the roof assembly, having all the parts accessible from the underside made it easy to put the roof on. The hardest part was standing up the legs, it actually took 3 people to hold everything while the cross members were attached, but not a big issue. Lastly, the legs are not actual 6x6 beams, they are 2x6 boards tacked together, so they are lighter than an actual solid beam. Not an issue but it something I was not expecting.

Solid construction

We bought this a month ago and built and installed it a few weeks ago. Exactly what we were looking for and the construction is very solid. Fits a 5 pcs conversation set perfectly. Looking forward to enjoying the summer under the new gazebo. Assembly is a little involved and you will need a few friends to help when it is time to stand it and assemble the two halves of the frame. You will also need at least one friend to help put the roof panels up.

Strong and Sturdy able to standup to Texas weather.

It is a very strong and extremely well engineered Gazebo. I found the instructions easy to understand but it definitely requires 3 people to stand up. Personally I would install the roof rafters to the structure first then use a stepladder to screw the sheet metal roofing on. We truly enjoy ours.

Handsome but difficult

This carport is beautiful and very well designed. Installation is very tedious. You have to be willing to take your time. The Bilt app is great, however the roof rafters and soffit pieces are very confusing and it is difficult to tell which pieces go with which. I meased this up on several panels. The green plastic wrap on the metal sheeting takes an unduly long time to remove. It is a test of patience but the finished product is sturdy and attractive. It's a trade - off!

Norwood Gazebo 14 x 12 Review

Quality of wood and hardware is very good...no chipped discolored wood and location of pre-drilled holes is accurate. Instructions are better than most others and have detailed steps and pictograms of assembly with ballooned enlargements for clarity. Wood and hardware are all marked and accurate...pre-assembly is critical to success - group all like wood parts and organize hardware by number and your assembly will be efficient.

My New Carport

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.

Love it!!!!

It was too expensive to build a percent roof covering our back deck. This gazebo did the trick. We installed a sun shade to stop the evening sun so we can enjoy the tranquility of our back yard. And cookout without getting rained on. Would definitely buy again. I put most of it together by myself. You definitely need two or three people to slide the roof panels in place.

Gazebo of my dreams!!!

Purchased this carport for our second home and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. The instructions were easy to follow and the quality of the parts are Grade A. The electrical outlets are a wonderful addition to add lights to the gazebo. So happy we purchased this!!!

So glad I made the right Choice!

I was hesitant on going with Backyard discovery, you never know how these patio covers are going to look. I looked at some pictures of other patio covers and decided to go with backyard discovery, and I’m so glad we did! It really completes our backyard. And we didn’t only just buy one, we bought two!!! Also bought both for under $10,000, when we got estimates for a vinyl patio for one it was going to be around $20-30,000.
