Absolutely love my gazebo now that it is together. Assembly however was extremely challenging. There is probably 100 pcs of cedar boards and 500 plus screws and other parts. The markings on the boards are small and faint on the ends of the board. It took me two hours of unboxing and relabeling each board with painters tape and a permanent marker. This up front work saved many many hours searching for parts. It took quite a bit longer than the suggested 3 people/10 hours. You need at least 3 strong people for the roof assembly but the more the better. The end result however is an excellent quality gazebo that I believe will last a very long time. This is much nicer than the ones you typically see in the big box stores. My husband did say he would hire out assembly if there was a next time, lol!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this in May and was able to have it installed before Fathers Day so that my husband could have his brothers get together. They were all surprised how nice and clean it looked. I have been enjoying it every chance I get. All my friends and family love coming over to hang out. Next Spring will be fantastic. I love it and thanks.

Was in need for shade on my patio. I ordered it on a Sunday and had it by Friday. I’m a 59 year old female. a friend of mine who’s older helped me pre assemble what we could (the beams and roof). We had never ever done a project of this size. We consider ourselves handy but a little bit of construction knowledge would have helped us. We made lots of calls to guys we knew and her husband helped a bit too. Instructions were easy to follow and at the end it all went together fine. If I did it again would take 1/2 the time. Definitely watch your critical measurements. Also take the time to make sure the trim pieces on the roof are secure prior to installing it. I did not put the trim on the beams where it attached to the roof. We have our periods of lots of moisture in Nebraska a thought it was a catch for moisture. Looks great though. It’s only been done for less than a week.

I got this gazebo to replace one that I had which had been damaged by a storm. The previous one was 14x10 but I decided I wanted a little bit bigger this time. I love the size it’s great. Love the light color of the wood. Was very easy to build. Would highly recommend this to anyone.

My husband is quite handy so he decided to build a similar structure from scratch. When I saw this on display at our Sam's Club, I brought him back to take a look because I loved it and it was a larger size than we thought we could afford. He was impressed with the truss system and all around durability.... After some comparison analysis, we bought the Cordova for far less than it would have taken my him to build. Not to mention the time this kit saved us from having to find the lumber and hardware, and then having to cut, stain, and assemble! I got what I wanted in a quick and easy weekend project, and my husband was thrilled at this being real a time saver for him!! It is a perfect relaxing place along side our firepit!! We are getting so many compliments on this sturdy attractive gazebo!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this gazebo earlier this year, with the plan on having a builder put it together for us… the builder ended up not being able to do it for months. So we ended up getting my family together and we built it ourselves. I would definitely recommend the option to have it built when delivered. It took my family 2 days to complete the build. The instructions were great but it’s just hard to do if you have no experience. Luckily my Dad does so it made it much easier for us. I would buy again and recommend to friends.

This is a great addition to my backyard. I call it my cook station. It has been so nice to be able to grill after sundown and on those rainy days. That said. This Gazebo is very well made and should last for many years. The only thing that would make it perfect is a gutter system.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When we first decided to install a gazebo a few months ago, we did our research thoroughly and decided on the Cordova Gazebo for style, strength and stability. We were not disappointed! The overall experience and completed result was amazing. It has since provided comfort, relaxation and a place for our family to enjoy being outdoors. The installation was simple and we had no issues. We added lighting, fan, blinds and seamless gutters to match. Thank you Backyard Discovery for a wonderful product.

We bought this Gazebo to provide shade for our backyard pool patio. We love the solid cedar construction and the metal roof which keeps us covered on rainy days. Assembly instructions were very detailed and easy to follow. Extra hardware was also provides for most assembly steps. Could not be happier with this purchase, we look forward to enjoying it for many years to come.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a large project but with it went together with good preparation. There were very good instructions. I will add I do have good construction/ wood working skills. I was able to get help of one or two people as needed. We are proud of the results and many of my neighbors are also impressed. We would strongly recommend this product.
