We live in central California which can get hot in the summer time. About 5 years age we puchased a home with a small padio but needed more covered area in the backyard. Our gardener suggested a gazebo to increase coverage. We purchased a 12x14 Meridian Gazebo that the gardening company installed for us. It's has worked well in the backyard as it looks good and checks all the boxes of needs for us. We added a ceiling fan to help with the hot summers. One of the things that we added was white reflective paint to the aluminum roof. The reflective paint made a big difference at dropping the temperature under the gazebo.

I have to say that my Yardistry Meridian Gazebo has exceeded all of my expectations. It is a quality product that was not too difficult to assemble and is very beautiful. It’s substantial, sturdy & in my opinion a thoughtful & strong design. Paired with our Yardistry mosquito netting is a beautiful addition to our outdoor living area.

Sadly I am unable to give a better review. The product itself is nice, however ours was missing a few pieces. We did not find out until a year and half after purchase since we didn't have it installed until then. When I reached out to the company directly I was told that this was a warranty issue and it was subject to the 1 year limitation. I offered to provide evidence that we just unboxed last week ( paid a professional to come assemble) but they just stuck to the one year warranty stance. So if you purchase, make sure and unbox and do an inventory so you find out if you are missing parts. I am waiting on a quote to see how much I have to pay in addition to the purchase and assembly to resolve.

We purchased this item, very much dreading putting it together. What a shock, everything labeled correctly. Step by step instructions. Well built, sturdy and not as hard to put up as I thought. Looks great in our backyard, we have a firepit in the middle with our patio furniture around. Well worth the money

Easy to assemble after reading the instructions. The parts fit together perfectly. Was missing some pieces not because Yardistry but due to the retailer. Yardistry has stepped up and had my missing parts in a few days. The product is excellent the service is way over and above anything I experienced with any company in a long, long time. I would absolutely recommend anything they make based on my experience.

We ordered and erected the 10x10 Meridian Gazebo over the last week and I would like to compliment Yardistry on the quality of the product. The engineered design was very thoughtful and thorough; I am impressed with how well everything fit together and how relatively easy it was to assemble. The materials were of apparently excellent quality; given that this is a natural wood product, some minor deficiencies are to be expected, but they were very few in number and essentially imperceptible. My only quibble would be to repeat what others have commented on regarding the plastic film applied to the roofing panels; very time-consuming and annoying to remove. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase; 5 stars.

Built structure two years ago and still looks great. Will be restaining and sealing the wood this spring. Structure was easy to assemble but required three extra people to get the roof on and into place. I was able to do assembly mostly by oneself. Two required to put up legs and cross members. Instructions were clear and their videos on line were excellent. Great product and design.

Did all the work myself except for putting the roof panels up, where I just had a few neighbors help get them in place. I added my own back wall with louvers and getting ready to put an outdoor kitchen inside. It was perfect for my pool and backyard!

I just bought and built the 20 x12 gazebo and it's great. Quick delivery, good quality and good instructions. Better quality than I expected for the price. 1 set of pieces was missing but Yardistry sent the parts right away. Very satisfied. Tip for building...follow instructions carefully and have enough time/ manpower to complete to keep it fun.

The directions for the most part are easy to read and the assembly is fairly easy to put together. Why I give this a 3 star is because the roofing panels, all the side strips, well anything that is aluminum has a sticky plastic film on them. The assembly took 2 people about 8 hours until we got to pulling the sticky film off. That so far has taken us 6 hours.. My fingers hurt, I am cut up, elbows are raw from leaning on this roofing panel all day and how bad is this for the environment. If I had known that this film was on the aluminum panels I may have gotten the client to go with another company.
