Amazing retreat from Daily Life!

Staycation is my back yard. I regret waiting to many years before I added the Backyard Discovery Pergola to my backyard. It’s created a living space I’ve never had in my own yard. My contractor was hesitant when he say the boxes. But I arrived back at noon and it was completed. He said the construction was high quality, instructions were easy. In fact he has recommended and installed several Backyard Disciry Pergolas after his experience with mine. My only regret- not purchasing it sooner. Thank you

The pergola itself is fantastic

I bought this pergola direct from Backyard Discoveries and the pergola itself is fantastic. Fairly easy to assemble, my 19 yo daughter did most of it. I read a lot of the reviews that said the holes did not line up or that the hardware was junk. I did not find that to be the case at all. In fact I don't think you can build this for the price you get it for here. The hardware is not stainless, however it is powder coated and I did not have any problem stripping anything. It is very adequate and not cheap. The wood itself is Chinese ceder, It's not western red but for the price point It was fairly straight, and any minor twists are easily worked out as you build. I pre stained the wood with Olympic stain and seal #716. It was almost a perfect match. The pergola assembled looks fantastic!! My reason for only 4 stars is the use of YRC freight to ship this product. I know this is not directly related to the pergola or Backyard Discovery but please find a better company to work with. They were awful. They never called to let me know our appointment was not gonna happen and I lost a day of work. The shipment arrive 10 days later than our original appointment.

Worth the effort !

It's a good value and quality compared to other brands. Putting it together was not easy, but it was well worth it. It looks great and it feels very solid. I haven't felt the need to attach it to the ground as it is heavy and will not blow over.

Very Impressed

Bought this on 6-9-2023 arrived 6-13-2023, Assembly was easy took about 6 hrs. for 2 people. Well-built and great quality in making the parts. All cuts were accurate and holes clean and matched. no sharp edges. Really dressed up the curb appeal of our deck,lots of complements and several people asked where we bought it. Very Happy with this purchase.

Cracked Beam
3 out of 5 stars review

Beautiful but broken

I had our pergola installed before winter. It was a lovely spring day and we went out to see it up close for the first time and a beam is cracked. I was hoping to hang swings but now I’m concerned about the weight bearing aspect. We did have it anchored in cement.

Excellent Experience!

We bought the 16 x 12 Beaumont Pergola in April 2023. It was delivered quickly and the installation service Go Configure contacted us promptly, set up the appointment, showed up and efficiently installed the pergola. Great experience all the way around!!!

Excellent quality...beautiful addition to our yard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this pergola in the spring. We had 2 smaller resin pergolas in another part of our yard that provided a climbing structure for grapevines. We wanted to move these and provide a more elegant solution. High quality materials and clear assembly instructions facilitated the construction project. We've received many complements on the end results. We are a couple of miles from the coast and In the short time we've had it it's withstood a few hefty windstorms with no issue. This Backyard Discovery 10x10 pergola more than satisfied our expectations.

I Love This Pergola!
5 out of 5 stars review

Very easy

I am a 50 year old woman and I was able to put this up myself. I had my 20 year old daughter help me with lifting the assembled pieces to the top of the pergola while I attached them. All the parts were included and I had no problems with hardware or alignment. It was very easy to assemble because I planned ahead, had the right tools and patience. I assembled it in 8 hours on day 1, I anchored it to the concrete on day 2.

5 out of 5 stars review

Awesome construction and a very attractive Pergola

We purchased this in June. We had to wait to install once the concrete patio was completed. It took about 6 hours to install completely and we were completely impressed with the construction. All of the components necessary were included. It turned out to be much stronger than I expected. Originally I was going to build one from scratch but after pricing Cedar components and figuring out all of the hardware required we decided to order from you. So glad we did.

Lots of compliments

Purchased this in June 2022 and my wife and I assembled the entire thing. It's not difficult just time consuming. It took us about 10 hours but again not difficult to do. The instructions are well organized. We put together most of the pieces in the garage and carried them to the back yard for total assembly. We have at least 5 neighbors who have asked questions and compliments us on it. We installed some roll shades as well for the afternoon sun and it's perfect. I expect to do a protectant stain coat this teak to keep the color so the cedar doesn't start looking gray like cedar does when it's weathered. Keep in mind this is Chinese cedar which is a bit different than American red cedar, but for the price, and knowing what you're going to get, you can't go wrong.
