[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this in March to satisfy my desire for a covered deck. I wanted to hire a contractor to build a covered add on but it was way to expensive. I'm so glad I found this gazebo. I have not one thing to say bad about this product. It came in 4 or 5 boxes- earlier than expected which was a plus. The first thing I recommend is to find the box with the instructions and follow them from start to finish and you will not have any issues. It will start with telling how to unpack the boxes and lay everything out... yes guys, this is important. This product came with 4 clamps, drill bits, just about all you need to get the job done. You will be amazed how quality this product is. All the boards were pre-cut, pre- notched, pre- drilled, everything fit just as it was supposed to. We did have to change the order up a tad bit since we were building it on our deck up against the roof on the house, but it still worked great. It was designed to be built in the open. We also added guttering to ours to help keep the splatters down. (something to be considered as an add on maybe- it looks great) We have gotten so many compliments on it and everyone in agreement with how solid it is and well built. I hope this review lets you know just how much you need one of these. I don't think we've ever made a better purchase or have been happier than we are with this one. Don't think twice - just buy it. You won't be sorry. It''s now November and we still love it. I tell myself every day what a great investment this was

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had previously bought our playgound equipment from Backyard Discovery and purchased our gazebo in May 2023. Great product. Installation guys were perfect and highly professional. Since we live next door to our three grandchildren (and their parents), our backyards are connected and we spend a huge amount of time playing and eating and talking under our classy, beautiful gazebo. Thanks, BD.

This definitely is alot of work. it says it takes 3 people 10 hrs. I'd say 2 & both should have tools. it's not difficult to build. I did most of it myself (I'm a 45 yr old woman) with help from my son & his friend with the roof. the only negative I have is the clamp that it comes with is not strong enough & the one we received was broken. overall I love the gazebo & have been enjoying it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and sons assembled this two weeks ago & it looks great. They mounted an outdoor ceiling fan and lights to make it even better. We had some very strong winds over the weekend and were happy to see it didn't even budge the gazebo. Very happy with it so far!

We purchased this to Zibo because of the overall style in the electrical seizures and structural integrity. We are so happy with it it looks amazing and living in Arizona I’m confident now that I’ve added three coats of Watco finishing oil; it will continue to look amazing. I can’t believe my neighbor spent over 7K for an aluminum structure, wrinkly it looks like a complicated gutter system.

This installment was easy. Took some time due to weather constraints, but we were able to accomplish the gazebo with no issue. Mind you, it does take some arm work for other tasks when accomplishing the big post and framing structure part of it. As for the roofing, that also took someone with longer arms than normal, if that person is available. I’m 5’7” so anyone can do this!!!

We purchased our Gazebo about a month ago and it is one of the best purchases we ever made! We love our back deck, but in the afternoon and early evening, the sun beats down on the deck making it almost unusable. We installed the Gazebo on the deck and added roll up/down blinds to the west and north side, a ceiling fan, and lighting. Our only regret is that we didn’t do it 20 years ago. My wife and I installed the deck doing most of the work ourselves. We engaged our son to help lift the 12 foot roof panels into place. You definitely need at least 3 people for that step. The instructions and BILT app were absolutely perfect. They were very clear and we didn’t encounter any mistakes or issues. We finished it with linseed oil, which we plan on reapplying twice a year (spring and fall).

[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.

Gazebo is very Saturday and looks great. The only downside is the assembly. The roof is a pain, you need at least two people preferably 3. The panels that go through the seams and the trump around the top is painstaking. The screws are self tapping and you have to penetrate the steel roof to attach. The roof is a collection of 6 panels each probably weighing close to 125 lbs each. It would be much easier if the company split the roof into smaller sections that would allow one person to install. Also, as a tip, when putting the roof on use the two clamps provided to clamp in place to hold panels prior to connecting with bolts. Finally, the instructions were a bit unclear regarding the t nuts and the top frame.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kit was complete and had extra parts for the hardware and fasteners. The Directions were in two languages, the important one for me being "English"! It took three men to perform the roof install as you needed to be about %' 10" or taller. I am a semi professional modeler and am used to hard to follow Building directions...these we hard to follow. Study the pictures very closely, every little detail tells a story of assembly. It helps if more than one person look at the directions. But we figured it out! The attached picture shows the final outta the box Gazebo! I put Clear Large Christmas Lights around the inside roof edge for subdued night lighting and it looks great! Am going to buy for set of "magnetic screening" panels that can be let down or tied back to control breeze and some direct sunlight as well as bugs. I recommend a good buy. If the directions were more clear it woulda been a "Five Star" product!
