My sons and I assembled the cover over a two-day period and had no issues with how all the components fit together. In past experience with structures like this, we always found issues with holes not being drilled in correct spots or something else not fitting the way it should. In this case, we followed the instructions (which were well written and illustrated) and did not have anything not fit as it should.

All shipping and support exceeded expectations. The assembly was not too difficult and the alignment of holes between boards was amazing. On the Roof Assembly (Step 25) I would suggest modifying the 3rd tip: "Layout all roof sections to center and determine equal gaps BEFORE any screws are used." I had a false start and needed to remove screws and adjust. Would be great to see what others have done with their Gazebo. I'm now trying to figure out lights over my grill and smoker and perhaps an exhaust fan.

Love our new gazebo! Great quality and it looks so nice! Also very impressed with Backyard Discovery! Great customer service. The first one we ordered was going to be a few inches too big. The boxes were unopened so they had it picked up and returned at no charge, and processed our refund promptly! Their installation cost is also very reasonable, after getting other quotes. Very impressed with the company and the product, which is difficult to find these days. Great experience all around!

We absolutely love our Arcadia Gazebo. My husband and I, both in our 60s, assembled it ourselves over two days to protect the front of our house from the Arizona sun. We set it up "backwards" (with the front facing our house so it slants away from the house). Last night we had our first beautiful rain on the "tin" roof. We just love going out to sit on the porch swing, protected from the sun and the rain!

I’m very satisfied with my purchase. All the hardware and instructions made it very easy to assemble. The cuts are perfect fit and the quality is great. Best of all my wife and kids love it and enjoy it and I can grill anytime and my family can enjoy lounging on our free time.

This review is actually of our XL Saxony Grill pergola…just finally finished installing last week. The pergola was easy to put together. Instructions were very clear, and 3d view was very helpful. My wife and I put as much as possible together in preparation for our sons joining us to connect the four posts and add the roof…it now houses our original outdoor kitchen. It is our 2nd Backyard Discovery pergola (you can see in the picture, behind the Saxony XL, our Arcadia Pergola, which we use primarily for concerts and movies). Next week we are putting together the smaller Saxony pergola to house a smoker and pizza oven. We LUV Backyard Discovery products!,

Quality is very good. Looks great! Assembly is best with 2 people and takes a few hours. Polyurethane all wood parts first. Everyone who has seen it wants one! I put it adjacent to the Backyard Discovery Norwood. Wish they would fit together without a gap.

I bought this and a matching "corner pergola" las month. Both are absolutely fabulous. I did each one over a weekend with a bit of help from my college age daughter. Instructions are really good, the hardware is top notch and I couldn't be happier

I found this gazebo to be of good quality and with all hardware needed for construction. Fairly easy construction although I had to recruit some help after I put the sides together. It was about a 6 hour job and needed two people minimum to put the roof on. Lots of compliments! P.S. good instructions but make sure to keep hardware with numbered bags.

The end result is a really beautiful gazebo. Unfortunate my husband and I are very much less than handy and can not follow direction all that well so we had a lot of steps to redo. For people who are even remotely handy assemble should be easy. We had a point in the assembly when we realized that the gazebo was going to be too big to fit inside our screened lanai (totally my fault for measuring incompletely.). Customer service was wonderful and offered to have the boxes picked back up with no restocking fee. This says a lot about the company and their dedication to customer satisfaction. We were able to find another location to home our gazebo and look forward to getting a lot of use out of it in the years to come. I would definitely recommend this product to my friends.
