[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my Gazebo last Summer and have been enjoying it more than anything. The fact we can bbq and sit out back and not get beat down by the direct hit of the sun is a pleasure and my family and I are truly putting it to great use.

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.

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.

Quality of components is top-notch and packaging was well thought out to avoid damage to any of the pieces. Every piece was there and accounted for in the boxes and assembly went exactly as described in the instructions. This is a super solid and heavy gazebo, so 2 adults is definitely needed to erect this building. Plan on 2 pretty full days of assembly with 2 people. The cedar looks and smells amazing.

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!

We were able to build this with myself and my husband but strongly suggest others to assist when operating the post. Didn't realize in order to be under warranty you have to stain or seal the wood every year for 5 years. We have received many compliments about the beauty of the pavilion. Overall we are very pleased with how it turned out.

Not for the weak of heart to put together. We just had two of us putting the gazebo together contrary to advice. We were shorted a couple corner brackets but once we got started it went fairly smooth. We added teardrop lights and a couple fans. It provides good shade and the fans keep a breeze stirring. If you’re not up for a full weekend project, pay to have the gazebo assembled.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had this put up in our backyard and love it, very sturdy and has great features like the black powder coating on all the metal on cider wood. This looks great and we get compliments all the time.

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought our gazebo in April 2023 and it has been the best addition to our yard. It gives us much needed shade and is a great entertaining space. The wood is beautiful and has stood up to some crazy summer storms already. Assembly was very easy! I built most parts myself and my husband helped with the heavy lifting and putting the assembled pieces together. We added curtains, lights and a TV and have a whole outdoor space that we use most of the year. If we ever move, I’d buy another Backyard Discovery gazebo in a heartbeat!
