[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my first Backyard Discovery Gazebo in August in preparation for my partner’s birthday party. We added blinking string lights across the entire ceiling. Everyone just loved the look. I loved it so much that i bought a second Backyard Discovery Gazebo to add to the look. I am truly considering a third to place all of my cooking appliances under them.

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.] 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!

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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Directions were clear, and very easy to put together (considering the massive size). A drill is needed and it comes with all other needed tools and drill bits. Extra screws and nuts etc. come too! I’ve recommended this style and company to my neighbors and family. It’s such a beautiful and very sturdy piece. If you’re on the fence… JUST BUY IT! It will not disappoint!

I bought this back in October and it took me 2 days to complete. Pretty straightforward instructions just keep all your fasteners separated. Definitely solicit the help from two or three friends to put the roof portion on hasn't made it very easy. I purchased corrugated galvanized Barn Roofing from the local hardware store and covered in the back which is very helpful when it snows as you can see from the pictures. Miss gazebo is well worth the price and a bargain compared to others.

[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.

[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.

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.

I searched for the largest, most affordable structure I could find to make an outdoor kitchen. This was it! It was a little intimidating at first with the parts that came in 11 huge boxes, but it was pretty easy to assemble. Two of us did most of it but a third person was needed at to move and make adjustments. I am in love with how this turned out and definitely recommend it. Price cannot be beat for the size and the material.
