I needed a gazebo no taller than 8 feet or so, since I wanted to keep my tress without much trimming. This gazebo fits our space perfectly. I know it's called the 'XL Grill Gazebo', but for us it's the pool tools and shade gazebo. The power box and shelves are perfect for pool items and other backyard tools. The shade space is great. I would have loved a bigger one, but don't have the space in the area I had designated. Installation was professional and my dealings with the BYD service folk was outstanding. The quality of the solid cedar wood parts is exceptional. I would definitely recommend BYD with no reservations.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best quality material as wood, roof, etc as I expected and match with the price. Variety size of products, so I can choose the right one for my needs. The assembler also finished it professionally.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love our Grilling Gazebo! It looks great on our patio and provides shelter from bad weather too. We've had several neighbors comment on how nice it looks. We added Edison lights to create a nice ambiance. Great purchase for us!

The gazebo looks good, the space is nice, and I am happy with the purchase until probably we get some high-speed wind... some screw broke while anchoring them to the concrete, and some wood were not fully glued or a little bit broken. To get replacement pieces, you must pay for it, so it's not worth it.

Had this Arcadia Gazebo installed September 2024 to cover our jacuzzi and patio table! It is beautiful and the perfect size. The gazebo is exactly what I wanted for our recently purchased home. We've already installed a fan and beautiful lights on it. I couldn't have been more pleased! I absolutely love my gazebo!  It is exactly what I envisioned to cover my patio and keep the rain away from the house! 

This 20x20 carport kit arrived in 11 boxes. When we opened them, there was hundreds of boards and several hundred bolts, nuts, screws, washers and brackets. This could all be intimidating! But, my wife (age 71) and I (age 75), sorted out the lumber and applied an outdoor stain to all of the pieces. We also sorted out the hardware. Luckily, my 75th birthday party coincided with the need to erect the nine vertical posts, so we had help. You really do need extra people for this step. After that, it was all on my wife and I. Took us about three days to finish, working short days because of the heat. A few things to note: Every drilled hole was exactly in the right place. However, on some occasions, boards had to be flopped to align the holes, otherwise you'd think the holes were drilled in the wrong spots. Try not to leave the untreated boards out in the blazing sun. They will twist. Be careful on opening the bags of hardware to keep all of the pieces in their bags, and to be able to read the numbers on the ripped-open bags. You cannot spend too much time squaring the roof. We must have measured it 20-25 times as we went along, before putting up the metal panels, as each time we worked on plumbing the posts and installing the rafters required a slight adjustment. As it was, we were 1/4 inch off, and that 1/4 inch did show up when we put on the metal panels. We installed this carport onto a concrete barn floor laid about 100 years ago. They made concrete tough in those days. Several of the screws we drilled into the concrete snapped off just as they were getting tight. (This also happened with concrete screws we bought at Home Depot, so not necessarily the result of low quality screws by the company.) While the instructions say not to get on the roof, unless you have long, long arms, you do have to either sit on the roof beams or lean way over to screw in the metal roofing panels. But I never felt any weakness from the structure when doing so. Oh, I was lucky and had a dental procedure this summer which has limited my eating. Consequently, I lost about 20 pounds. You need to be lean to fit through the holes between rafters in order screw in the panels from above. By following the instructions (and reading ahead a few pages) this project was very do-able for us. It turned out so beautiful that even our neighbor, who is a building contractor and perfectionist, has complimented us. It does the job of keeping our car and other vehicles dry and is a wonderful addition. We would recommend this carport.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My New Gasebo from BYD is awesome!! Looks great, very well made and easy to put together! My back deck was so hot and I very rarely went out there, but now it's my new hangout! I've added a fan and Bluetooth speakers... Awesome!

This is the ideal setup for any patio or deck setup. Large enough to fit a full grill or flattop with space to sit and enjoy drinks while you wait on a meal. The full top keeps your equipment mostly out of the elements and space to hook up your electrical equipment.

This Gazebo was the perfect t solution for a tight patio space and western sun exposure. Cooled of the area in the late afternoon and evening to make the patio enjoyable to sit outside. Quality materials and we hired the recommended third-party installed through Backyard Discovery. They were professional and did an excellent job.
