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!

We bought this a month ago and love it, added a run off gutter, installed a TV, installed patio lights, and started to decorate with signs, clock, ceiling fan, etc. Its real sturdy and anchored to the patio concrete. Would recommend to anyone considering a good product to purchase the Backyard Acadia.

Worked just as I expected for my smoker but it would have been nice if the roof panels were a touch longer. The problem is the panels are just long enough to reach from the front of the roof to the back. I want to put a gutter on the rear of mine to stop the water rolling back under the gazebo. So I am going to add a drip edge to keep the water from going between the gutter and the board. Assembly was not bad using the Built app. Over all I would recommend this to anyone wanting to project an expensive grill or smoker it’s also a huge plus when grilling and it’s raining. I also added the lights the show in the picture.

Great kit. Totally happy with the finished product. Put it together really quick by myself but spent at *least* 50% of the entire build time pealing the plastic coating off of the roof pieces. That sucked. Almost have it one star but my wife and I just sat under the gazebo staying dry in the rain. That was lovely. Also...at least for people to put the roof up safely.

Don't think twice, this is an excellent product, easy to install. I'm 62 years old and did the entire project by myself except for assistance lifting the roof. After completing the build I added a few extras. Added a full double sided back pannel and then built two cabinets beside my blackstone grill. Last was power and lights. This was an amazing product for a 19th hole 110 yard par 3 and oversized putting green.

This is my second Gazebo from BYD and couldn't be happier. This one covers my outdoor kitchen and, just like the one I have covering my hottub- its rock solid, real cedar, and easy to assemble. I live in the PNW and having cover- that will not rot and stay beautiful- is essential.

i think, it wouldve been nice to have had the booklet, or the scan code, prior to the boxed parts, arriving on site. since there were so many boxes, it was difficult to get to the box with the instructions. it took 2 men and 1 woman about 6 full days to complete. I dont know if, instructiobs werent clear, or if the men jumped ahead, and thought they knew better ha ha. But the first 2 days was a lot of redoing. Did have left over bolts n screws, but were short on a few, and drip edge. seems like a wellbuilt carport. very nice color and trim. so time will tell how it holds up. Good luck!

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!

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

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.
