Just finished the build , took all of 4 days . I give it a 4 star rating because it took 2 days to get the plastic off of the metal parts. the instructions are clear , diagrams are great . It even tells you when you need to have 4 people for some assembly. Great! The plastic coating was brutal! i would have help but they would only help for a short time and get frustrated and stop. Once removed pretty much an inch at a time it left glue residue all over the metal which we had to scrub with chemicals to remove. I had to leave some plastic inside as the metal as the metal was molded with the coating already on and I just couldn't get it off. I spent from noon until 8 one day and from 9-6 the next just removing the coating. It definitely took away from the project. I enjoyed the rest of the project. all the wood was in great condition and the Gazebo is a great addition to our yard.

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!

We bought this a few weeks ago and are very happy with the outcome. It looks great in our backyard and we are looking forward to enjoy it in the weeks and years to come. Watching videos were key in the assembling process. Although there was a damaged part in one of the boxes, customer service was very helpful and quick in sending a replacement.

Easy to assemble and good to as a foundation to customize to my specific needs. I turned the Gazebo into a small pool house. Equipped with a kitchen including a gas stove, sink, and fridge. Even a small bathroom and a roll down gate to enclose the bar opening.

We had the manpower. Everyone watched the 'helpful hints' videos on line. We had all of the cedar components built in a couple of hours. No issues. Until we started to installing the aluminum roof panels. Dead stop. It took us 4 hours to peel the plastic film off. A ridiculous amount of time. Yardistry will respond that the plastic film is there to protect the panels. My response: Find a better way. The ridge caps, roof ridge track sections and roof trim sections all peeled easily. The panels, not so much. It was like a kind of torture! Lol. Also, look for parts inside the main posts, they're hollow and we had some inventory hidden in there. A solid product, well packaged, well designed. Could have done without the plastic film drama.

FYI the Yardistry gazebo is considered by building departments to be a 'structure' and is subject to their review. Yardistry REFUSES to provide structural calculations or a third party certification of the structural integrity of the gazebo (so is it safe in the first place??). To send their drawings to an engineer will double the price to install! If I had it to do over, I would just have a contractor just build a custom gazebo....

I love this gazebo! It was easy to assemble and put up, as long as you follow the directions properly and view the helpful videos. I installed lighting and added a color matched gutter system that makes the gazebo pop! We always get compliments when friends and family come over...

A nice outdoor space! I purchased in spring of 2021 and enjoyed it up until we purchased our now home in early 2023. I enjoyed it lol so much I do plan to purchase again for our current outdoor space. I know the current owners are enjoying it. It also fit our bulky patio furniture perfectly. Being in the North with all 4 seasons the color held up nicely. Excellent purchase!

Assembled about a month ago and we could not be happier. Plenty of room for our large dinning area and a sectional set. Family and friends give us rave reviews and the quality is excellent. We added the rain gutter system and it does a great job of helping keep the water away from the sides of the floor. Not super easy to put together so just take your time. We spent a week and brought in lots of help for the roof assembly. Our only regret is that we did not go with the 12 by 24😎
