[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We replaced our old gazebo with the Backyard Discobery gazebo. It’s well built and very sturdy. There is a convenient electric outlet that makes it easy to add lights and Bluetooth outdoor speakers. It does take awhile to assemble but just followed the instructions step by step. Love it. !

It's absolutely beautiful and incredibly sturdy. We decided to build it ourselves, it was tedious but the instructions were clear and easy to follow. The holes lined up easily, just don't tighten the hardware until they are all lined up. IT IS HEAVY! We had to have 4 people just to lift the 5 boxes off the truck. This is not a 1 man job, you'll need at least 3 people to install the roof. There are videos on YouTube showing people building these that include alot of hints and tips.

We bought this a little over a month ago and couldn't be happier. Everything about this gazebo is above and beyond expectations. To begin with it is absolutely beautiful and looks amazing in our space. The quality is outstanding, It is made solid cedar and the craftsmanship is excellent. we had it installed on a16x18 slab with the angled roof it fits nicely under the soffits of the house. We also feel that this was a excellent value. This will add beauty to our backyard for many years to come

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gazebo is beautiful. The quality of workmanship excellent. And best of all it came with easy to follow instructions and every pre drilled hole was exactly where it was supposed to be and add to that every screw bolt nut etc was there. We love it.

I liked that the 6 boxes fit into a pickup truck and that nothing was damaged because everything was packaged well. It took two old guys (myself and my brother-in-law) 3 days to put it together but a couple younger guys could have done it in a day and a half. The measurements provided by Backyard were correct and it fit perfect on my new deck. We have got several compliments about this gazebo.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this kit and love it. Excellent instructions and online video support. Each piece of the construction materials was clearly marked and easily identified. One small bent item was replaced by the manufacturer within two day. So no delay in construction. Can easily be constructed by the do it yourselfer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my dream Oasis. I wanted a place to heal and meditate. Everyone who has seen this design loves. We had concrete poured in the front yard. The contractors wished they had one. I would recommend the gazebo and Backyard Discovery.

Overall a very quality product. The assembly time in some of the reviews I read were very aggressive. Pros: Quality wood and hardware. The instructions were great, very detailed and offered many good guides throughout the assembly. Cons: I was missing three boards, all rafters. Two of the rafters were detailed with miter cuts and a rabbit. I am a retired carpenter so instead of waiting for who knows how long to get these, I fabricated these. I only had one other helper, also a retired carpenter. The panel assembly took the longest. I had two other friends help in raising and fastening the roof panels. I still gave it a 4 star because it looks great, is of high quality and the packaging was good. Expect to spend a couple of hours peeling off the protective wrap off the roof panels and drip edges.

Love my gazebo (totally transformed my space). A few pieces of wood came warped and the company sent new ones right away. They are open on the weekends which is really nice. I would recommend putting doing the roof slightly different than the instructions....the instructions say the grooves should go on top of the border at the bottom (that made the wood wet so I put the border on the bottom and no water touches the wood when it rains).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Every piece was well marked and instructions easy to follow. My husband and I only needed extra hands to put on the roof panels. It looks great, and is so sturdy! I'm sure it will provide shade and wonderful memories for many years to come.
