This is an extremely well engineered item. I was contemplating building a gazebo from blueprints but I opted to get the Cordova. I was expecting to sacrifice some quality for the reduced amount of time that I would have to spend assembling and constructing it. What a surprise! The quality of this unit far exceeds my expectations. It is really a fantastic unit and worth every penny.

A lot of pieces for sure. Packed very tight. Finding the right numbered piece took some time until you got into all the boxes. All pieces went together good. One man picking parts two men screwing together. If time allows find and separate pieces according to part you are working on.

When the boxes came they were mangled from shipping. Several hundred pounds of wood boards shipped in a cardboard box is kind of a disaster. I was thrilled to find that we were only missing a couple pieces and nothing was broken. Customer service was so pleasant to work with for quick replacement. My husband a teenage boys love building lego sets, so building this was right up their alley. I tried to help and quickly discovered the important of details. I tapped out and just let the experts handle it. I have a beautiful gazebo. It withstood the winter. Snow slid off as it's designed to. I can't wait for spring.

Bought this 2 month's ago. Looks well built and the instructions are decent. The ap with 3d helps alot. The only things that would help are better markings on hardware bags(not black). And the boards that are have holes that should down to be labeled as lower/upper.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice looking gazebo! I built the whole project myself using only the instructions supplied. I did download the video, but the instructions were good enough to complete the project. The project is forgiving enough that you don't have to be exact on your measurements or squareness, but the closet you are, the easier it will go together for you. I poured four concrete pads for the legs and got those nice and level and I made them 24 inches square and that have me plenty of room to make adjustments to the awareness of the base once I started the assembly of all the component pieces. I would recommend at least two helpers when putting the roof pieces up because they were too awkward for me to get them in place by myself. My only complaint is that one piece of structure was damaged by a tomorrow fork, but it turned out to be hidden once the project was completed and I didn't have to wait on getting a replacement part. Overall, great looking gazebo at a fair price! I'm glad it is finished and we can enjoy it. It took me about a month to finish it from sight prep to completion, but I did work alone on 95% of it, so a helper would save you a lot of time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very Happy with Gazebo looks sharp and solid, Make sure you have plenty of help and lots of free time as this was difficult to put together with 2 people. In retrospect, I wish I hired someone to assemble. However love my gazebo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wonderful gazabo. Exceptional craftsmanship and instructions for assembly with the BILT app made this a no-brainer. We did have someone assemble for us; however, no issues were noted. We loved this product so much, we purchased another for our pool, and the large grill gazebo. Should the need arise, I will not hesitate to purchase this product again for other areas. Don't hesitate, buy it. In my opinion, you won't be sorry!

The instructions were easy to follow along with the bilt app 3D views. Considering the amount of parts and pieces of material nothing was missing. In most cases there were extra nuts, bolts and screws. I was really impressed with the simplicity of the installation.

We are very happy we purchased the Cordova 14x10 Gazebo. The instructions were very clear and the parts were marked well. Three people were able to put it up in a day. Another vice tool would have helped as the one that came did break during assembly. We are now the envy of our neighbors, or so one tells us.

I purchased this gazebo this summer and hired someone to assemble it for me. They never found time so I did it myself. I must say there are so many good things about this set. Very good quality materials that for the most part fit together like a glove. They even give you extra screws/bolts/washers which I needed because I dropped a few in the grass and could not find them and I stripped a couple screws (my fault). I did have a few problems but since I am not a professional handy man, it could of been my fault. You must get the roof framing within the correct dimensions as stated in the instructions. The 10' sides were off a slight bit and I could not get it fixed. This caused a little problem later. The roof pieces are heavy so it will take 3 strong people to set them up and secure them. The paper instructions were OK but I had to use Youtube to verify some things...and there's an app you can download too that helps allot. If you are considering it, do it.
