I seen this product in the store. It looked very sturdy and I was not wrong about that. Took a while to install because you do have to put everything together but overall, it was a good deal. I’d say installation took around maybe 16 hours over the course of a few weeks, no rush on our end we have no complaints regarding the plastic coating, blue or clear on any of the panels. It did not take us a while to peel them off. I would recommend if you live in warmer climate to do that as soon as possible or if possible do it in a cooler area because I think that that makes it easier. Looks great glad we purchased.

I received delivery on 6/5 and immediately sorted out the many pieces to ensure complete set. Noticed that #729 Corner LT was cracked. Later when assembling one of the roof panels the end of fascia beam had a chunk fall out when securing it to a Corner RT. I had drill set to lowest torque so I know that it was not from too much force. This is the only piece that fell apart after screwing in what seemed to be a thousand screws. Wish that these two items didn't occur because it seems like it might be a nice gazebo. Also, as another reviewer noted, some to the precut pieces could be a little more precise and some of the longer lengths of wood had a bend in them. I might have to fabricate replacement pieces of wood since I can't wait another 3-4 weeks for replacement parts.

We are very pleased with this gazebo and how it turned out. It seems well made. I would have given it 5 stars but took one away due to having such a difficult time getting all the plastic wrapping off the metal pieces. It may have taken longer for us to do that then actually build the gazebo. My husband did most of the construction by himself but we had 2 others help when it came time to putting the roof panels on.

We ordered the 10 x 11 gazebo and so happy we did! My husband put most of it together with a little help and we decided to hire someone to install the roof because it was too much for one or two people to handle and everything fit together perfect! Our cats are loving it as much as we are because it provides good shade for them to take their summer naps!

People always stop and ask who are contractor was who built it. If you take your time and make sure everything is level and straight it goes together fairly easily. The only negative is peeling off the plastic coating from the aluminum panels.......what a pain! Customer service is awesome.....their response and followup is one of the best I have ever experienced. All in all we are extremely satisfied.

Description: the description and online photos are 100% accurate. As described, the structure is super solid and pre-drilled holes are spot on. Price: excellent price considering the quality of the product. Packing: it comes in 4 boxes strapped to one 4x8 pallet. The pieces are well packed and easy to inventory. The only annoying thing was peeling all the plastic wrapping off the metal pieces (overkill). Assembly: it went very smoothly. I needed 2 additional people to get the initial steps completed to get the structure established. Then I didn’t need help until putting the roof sections into place. It took just over 1 day (14 hours) to assemble the structure. I lost a lot of time peeling the plastic wrap off the metal pieces. Of note: Keep in mind this is an outdoor structure, so the corners and long boards connect with small gaps and moderately flush. Regardless, the structure is super solid and rain doesn’t not penetrate the roof AT ALL...dry everywhere underneath during a rain storm. Assembly: it

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.

We bought this gazebo 3 years ago and love it! We sit out under it in all kinds of weather. We especially enjoy sitting out there in the rain, when all the neighbors have to go inside, we just enjoy the sound of the rain and watch the wildlife. We also have added a grilling pavilion this last fall, my husband loves grilling and this keeps him in the shade and out of the rain whenever he's cooking!

I was expecting missing and broken parts, horrible instructions, and difficult assembly but got none of that. I didn't even swear during the assembly process! It was actually very easy to assemble and required zero modifications. I'd suggest reading the directions COMPLETELY before starting as you can save yourself a lot of time setting up an assembly line. One person can complete all the subassemblies in a couple days. Instructions said 4 people required for final assembly but me and wifey did it just fine. TBD how well it holds up, but so far, I was very pleased with the purchase.

We ordered the 10x10. I put all the pieces together and half the roof by myself. You definitely need 2-3 people to put the roof up to get the angle. Some pieces were cut wrong and some pieces the wood was warped. But all in all Very sturdy and the final product looks awesome. Will definitely recommend this product.
