We are happy with the Gazebo! My husband and I are both over 60 and we were able to construct the gazebo ourselves, needing only one other person to help elevate the ends. There is an instruction book included, which we found more helpful than the app. Always check with your delivery service to make sure you are scheduled.

I just finished the assembly of the Backyard Discovery Brookdale Gazebo and couldn't be more pleased! Early in the assembly I didn't open all the boxes first (as recommended) and thought I was missing some hardware. I called the 800 number and a live person answered and shipped the missing hardware overnight. To my embarrassment I found the hardware in the second last box I opened. I put footings in the ground below frost line with a post hole digger and 2x6 wood forms (for actual dimension 6x6) to the elevation of the adjacent pool. I also added 5" half-round gutters and a drip edge as the provided drip edge is ornamental only (since it's installed on top of the metal roof). I also added a ceiling fan and intend to add a wood burning fireplace to the rear, along with infill panels adjacent to hide the pool pump and filter. My assembly took several days' (usually by myself) but everything assembled exactly as intended, And I had no issues with the hardware at all...everything lined up perfectly! And the predrilled holes were perfect! The small torx bits they provide don't stay in the 12v drill motor as intended so I used small torx bits I already owned. I think T27. And don't pay to have it built. It's enjoyable. But you must start with a level and square base! And don't try to assemble the roof metal on the ground and lift the assembly. Build the wood frame and add the metal once the frame is installed on the structure. Two ladders (one insside and one outside, or keep moving the ladder as I did) and you can reach all the screw locations.

We received the gazebo promptly. My husband and two friends put it together. It took 10-12 hours of work. There were a few not so nice words said during those hours. The major advice I have is to read the directions fully before you start. As the wife's sat back and watched there was much laughing going on watching this interesting process take place. I will highly recommend this product and this is the reason why. We just experienced Hurricane Laura. I am sitting outside with no electricity and I have a smile on my face because this gazebo withstood 100-140 winds. Not even one screw came loose.

Had to use a tap and die to chase all the threads on the bolts and barrel nuts. Pre-drilled holes do not line up. Had to drill them out. This is the worst thing I have ever assembled. For this much money, you would expect better quality. Really had to fight it to get it assembled!

The top beam D1 was damaged with 2 holes in it. Awaiting to exchange that part with another one.

Although it took extra long to get here, it is FABULOUS!

I am happy I bought this gazebo. Good quality and looks amazing.
