Solid and gorgeous - Took professionals 4 days to build

The assembly company offered on the website does not have any PNW crews so I had to hire my own. I had 4 guys on the first day and 2 guys for an additional 3 days, working full 8-9 hour days. They were carpenters who did excellent work, it just took a really long time. The finished carport looks outstanding.

I love this so much and great instructions

I put this together in one weeekend mostly by myself. The Instructions are really good. I am 5 foot tall so I needed a pretty tall ladder for some of the roof parts but it worked. Did need help lifting the sides up but if you can get a friend to help for an hour doing that, otherwise you are good to go solo. I love it so much!

Party upgrade!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this! The grill tender always gets left out of the conversation when entertaining, this is the perfect addition. Now the cook can keep some can keep some company and take a rest as well. Must have for frequent barbecues!

Exactly what I wanted

Backyard landscaping is finally done and the gazebo could not have turned out better. Took a couple days to assemble but turned out great. I didn't way to use string lights, I grill and bbq quite a bit and there is just not enough light. I work in the lighting/electrical engineerimg industry and installed (3) LED strips with black finish to match the ceiling with all of the pipe ran on top of the cover, so it looks pretty clean and very bright.

All I wanted and more!

I purchased the saxony XL last summer and built it on a deck I built specifically for this gazebo. I absolutely love the functionality of the gazebo from keeping my grills protected, providing sun cover for me, to adding a beautiful conversation piece to the back yard. I added LED rope lights, a menu board and a hook for my apron. I plan to gutter the back this week. the assembly was straight forward and took a day or two working mostly alone. The roof was a four person job. I have recommended this to friends without hesitation. I just stained the whole structure this summer with Cabot semitransparent cedar wood stain. It looks great!

Great size for my yard and quality materials

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.

Met our expectations and needs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We wanted a lean-to style gazebo to protect our cob oven and have extra room for other outdoor cooking. After pricing out materials to build one from scratch, we found it would have cost close to what we'd spend on the Saxony XL, not to mention take us longer to build without a kit, so we decided to go with this one from Backyard Discovery. We're really happy with the results. We did find out the hard way that it's best to actually follow the instructions to a T rather than assume things and "freelance," so we had to undo things a couple of times and read the instructions more carefully, but all worked out in the end. My husband and I were able to build the gazebo, including lifting the roof into place, without additional help. One roof panel was missing -- which we didn't discover until we actually opened that box when we were ready to put the panels on -- but the missing piece was shipped out to us at no cost and arrived within a few days. The only downside was that the single sheet of metal roofing wasn't braced or padded in the box, and it arrived bent. But we used it as it was, and you can't really see the bend. Overall, we're really happy with the gazebo and the customer service.

Awesome Gazebo

The gazebo was very well packaged. Everything was there, no missing parts. They even provide screw tips for you. Took me, by myself about 8 hours start to finish on two separate days. Assembling the roof frame, then adding the roof tiles was the way to go. Very heavy. Very well made product. Instructions easy. The bilt app was a huge help. Really great gazebo. Looking forward to grilling underneath it soon. Just need to add some thompsons water seal.

Looks amazing!

So happy with the grill gazebo! My husband added motion lights and even a gutter on it to make it perfect for our yard! He even added lights pointing down at the grill so I can cook at night! The gazebo is perfect to house our grill, and I am looking forward to being able to cook outside for our friends and family! Thank you so much for this gazebo, it is the perfect size! I looked everywhere for one that worked and was thrilled when I finally found this one!

Perfect grill gazebo

We bought the gazebo last fall since it was out of stock everywhere last summer, but with such solid reviews we wanted to wait…..and it was well worth the wait!! What a well built gazebo for the money and the design is so convenient having the two shelves while cooking! I can’t say enough good things! We even added our own panels on the back for additional shade and protection. If on the fence, press “buy” today.
