Solid and perfect size

I can't say enough good thing about this product!! I searched a long time for something that was going to the size I wanted and withstand possible wind conditions. I had this built in September 2025 and this past winter we experienced lots of heavy wind conditions and zero concerns especially because my area building code requires 3ft footers so it definitely wasn't going anywhere!!! The only complaint from my contractor was the way it was packaged having to unbox everything and find all the parts. We had electric installed including a ceiling fan and the power port if excellent to be able to plug in additional items needed. Can't wait to get out this spring!

Very happy with my purchase!

I bought this because living in the Pacific Northwest it rains (a lot!) and I wanted an outdoor kitchen that wasn’t weather dependent. I’m really happy with how this turned out! The instructions were easy to follow and I put this together by myself in a weekend. The hardware was all good quality and there were plenty of extras, even though I didn’t need any, and I love that is made from real cedar. It seems durable and I think it’ll last me a long time! And it saved me thousands over my first plan of building my own shelter from cedar. This was a much better decision.

Fast, Cost Effective and Well Constructed

This kit was excellent. Extra fasteners in case you lost one on the ground while building was a plus. Super easy installation booklet. The app was clunky and too time consuming to use. Love the protection for my car and we will use it for outdoor gatherings as well. I will paint it to match the rest of my house posts soon.

Wish I had bought this years ago!

This has completely transformed our backyard. We used to only be able to take our toddler out in the early morning or late evenings, but this gives us shade and makes our yard usable the way we always wanted it to be. My only regret is not having bought this sooner

Outdoor Cooking Area

I purchased my Backyard Discovery Saxony XL grill gazebo to for our outdoor grill station. All of our parts were in great condition and install was pretty straightforward. It's great having a place to cook and serve hot off the griddle or smoker . Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Great look, rugged hardware and very functional!

I bought and assembled my grill gazebo earlier this month. The kit was very well packed and came with all the necessary hardware including some extras! The directions were fairly easy to follow but you need to pay attention to the details in the pictures. I found it easier to build the roof structure and mount it before installing the roof panels. It was much lighter to lift with two people. Once installed, we added the roof panels one by one using two ladders. The gazebo looks great and is very functional. I have both my pellet grill/smoker and BBQ side by side under the gazebo!!

Assembly tough but end product is worth it

Just finished assembling this and we love it. I will be honest, the assembly is tough and there are a lot of pieces. It took a couple of days to stain/waterproof the wood - make sure to look inside the main posts as there are quite a few smaller pieces tucked in there. Once you are ready to assemble, ask some friends over. We tried this with just the two of us and it is NOT recommended. We are using this as a carport and it is so much sturdier and attractive than the metals ones we purchased in the past. If we wanted to use it as a gazebo later on, simply move out the vehicles. I dare the Nebraska winds to knock this down!!

Very pleased!

Assembly was at least a 3 person job over the course of a couple days. Helpful to put up temporary supports during connecting the walls together. We got the gutter and mosquito net also. This has been a wonderful addition to help shade our sunny concrete patio. Now we get to enjoy! The only issue we had was with the mosquito netting. They give 3/4” screws to attach the track which are too short to get aligned even with a longer bit. Highly recommend a magnetic bit or little fingers to get those rails up. It was by far the most fiddly part of the job.

Beautiful Addition to the House

Just absolutely loved the entire experience with this carport. I knew it was going to be a challenge because of the grade where I wanted to place it. There is a good 15" drop from one corner to the opposite corner. Since the posts are hollow I decided to modify the bottoms. I first dug the required holes and filled them with concrete. Then I accurately measured the drop from the highest point to all the other post slabs. I then used 4x4 and 2x8 pressure treated wood to build inserts. I added 5" to all the posts so that the post on the highest point would have a "matching" base. The top of the black paint on the posts are now all level. My approach to this install was when I inventoried everything I stacked all the parts in reverse order from the instructions. I then built all the joists and reverse stacked them in the order that the instructions called for them. Day of the install went so very easy. Literally less than a day to assemble the posts, joists, roof, and anchors. Finished product is so much more than I expected. We love this carport!!

Beautiful Gazebo

We absolutely love our 14x12 Arcadia gazebo. My husband and I set this up by ourselves. The instructions were impeccable. Although, you do need to have advanced DIY skills in order to tackle we took our time and were able to do it. Every detail was perfectly outlined. The kit itself was extremely high quality. The end product is beautiful and sturdy. We couldn't be happier with it!
