I'll admit that on arrival I was hesitant that all the pieces would become what I saw in all the pictures. Allow yourself some time and don't rush when putting it together. Brother in law and me put it together in about 6 hours. 4 hours on Saturday for the build and then 2 more on Sunday for final assembly. The quality is great and the pricing was right where I needed it. Would definitely buy another one and I highly recommend it if you are considering. Love my XL Grill Gazebo!

I would recommend this gazebo. All was well labeled and instructions were very clear. However, I mounted the roof panel after the frame was up and secured. If would have been too heavy for my wife and I to lift. We are seniors and it work out better that way for us

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this a couple of months ago and have been having so much fun adding to it. We poured a concrete slab to set it on, added a bar around the entire interior perimeter, installed ceiling fans, wrap around lights, used cedar planks to semi enclose, are in the process of screening it in so we can enjoy it as a mosquito free gazebo, and will be installing a tile or stone floor. Such a fun project, easy to install and customize, and we love the addition to our yard. We also purchased a grillzebo for the other side of the pool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few months ago to replace my old canvas BBQ cover. The installation was very straight forward with great step by step instructions. Everything about the gazebo is of the highest quality, I expect this to last a long time. I added a permanent back for privacy and weather protection and also added removable sides to protect from the cold and snow here in Colorado during the winter; these will be removed for the summer. Just a great product overall and now I can grill in any kind of weather and stay dry and warm.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fits perfectly on the side of our house. The installers did a great and efficient job. I would give it 5 stars but a couple of the boards don’t line up perfectly preventing the screws from sitting flush. I hope that doesn’t lead to issues down the road. For now, we are very happy with this purchase!!!

I wasn't sure if it would be too big for our relatively small yard, but it has changed the whole look of our backyard. We used to have the grill pressed up against the house, but we actually moved it out into the middle of the patio with the gazebo over it, hung some lights, and have the table a bit further out... and it looks like the back of a restaurant now. I thought it was neat but I actually really didn't expect it to so dramatically change the look of our yard. People comment on it every time they come over.

Nice-sized grill gazebo for our new grill and small smoker. Assembly was relatively straight-forward with 2 people, and took most of the day. They did a great job putting this kit together so the pieces fit and made assembly easy. We did put a clear polyurethane on all the cedar pieces before assembling, to preserve the color and make it last longer... if there is a stain on it, you can't tell as the wood is very thirsty for more. Very pleased with the hardware, and the fact it came with a couple spares. The roof is okay... I wish it extended out further on the sides to protect the counters/tables, further out the back, and wish it had a greater slope for shedding rain and snow. We may eventually end up altering the roof ourselves. Overall, I'm happy with it. It looks great on our patio and will be very usable in nice weather.

My partner and I built this grillzebo over a couple of weekends. The video directions and the booklet made the assembly process very clear given the complexity of the design. My husband originally wanted to build something from scratch, but I’m glad we went with this tried and true design. It is worth the added cost. The individual pieces are cut in such a way to make them not so heavy or unwieldy. The only difficult part was getting the roof on but my partner who is over 6 ft was able to do it with the help of 2 friends. There were a few boards that arrived with small cracks in them, but they didn’t compromise the integrity of the structure and is not that noticeable. I’m interested to see how soon the cedar starts to gray and needs to be stained, but hoping we can get away with doing that next season.

I paid for assembly with my purchase thru Sam's Club. They use a company called Out of the Box Installation and that was the beginning of my nightmare. Twice, their tech did not show up for the appointment because he said they sent him to another "job" instead. The tech finally came out after a whole bunch of back & forth with me and Out of the Box. It was so much trouble that I don't have the time to list here. Bottom line - the Arcadia 9.5x12 gazebo looks great once up. I do wish it had a drip edge or gutter for the rain. If you pay for assembly thru Sam's, please ask for a different company to assemble. The reviews for Out of the Box Assembly are terrible & you better believe every single word!! If I could give them a thousand negative stars, I would. I wouldn't even want them to tie my shoe! Sam's Club & Backyard Discovery needs to stop using them immediately!!!

All parts were there with extras of most of the hardware. A couple of guys and myself took 2 days to fully complete the install. But probably 1 day full day with 2 or 3 people would work. We took our time. Overall fairly easy. There's a couple of areas where you have to pay attention to which boards to put together in correct orientation but generally instructions were good. Roof went on fairly easily. I couldn't drill into my concrete patio with the bits provided. But it's so sturdy I'm thinking of leaving the posts free standing.
