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.

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.

Arrives in 2 200 lb boxes with no option for “white glove” delivery unless you pay to have it installed. We’re in our 60s so getting it to back yard was a challenge. It is as shown and looks really nice in on our patio. Will stain it a darker brown fall. It is a medium brown.

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.

Great product at a reasonable price! Make sure to read and follow instructions to the T. That made assembly very easy. Also do yourself a favor and pre stain the entire gazebo before you put together. Looking forward to may years of enjoyment

We are so happy with this purchase! It is extremely well made and everything fit together perfectly. There were extra bolts, nuts and washers of every size. We had 4 people to help assemble and it was completed in about 4 hours. Though doable, I think would be difficult for 2 people to do this so I would recommend at least 3. I also added a coat of stain before assembly and it is beautiful.

We bought the 12x24 version a few months ago and with only one hiccup of missing boards, which were promptly sent out to us, this went up so smoothly and is absolutely beautiful! Only suggestion is to make sure you use washers with all of the screws or you will have leaks! Overall, we were so happy with it, that when we saw the smaller version, we bought it to place our grill and smoker under and it's fantastic!! The quality and craftsmanship of the material is top notch! Highly recommend if you want to add outdoor living space!!

Excellent from all aspects. I did a one person assembly on concrete patio of the house which required some engineering up right supports. Great support replacing 2 missing brackets. Discover video after finish. The Power panel is great. Added soft ornate string lights, wi-fi socket and bug light. Super!

I bought this gazebo 3 months ago. I absolutely love it!!! It keeps us out of the summer sun and the rain. The size is big enough that we have 2 matching patio tables under it for entertaining a crowd. We hung a 72 bulb string of solar lights all around the outside of all 4 sides and on every roof beam underneath for night time use. We did coat it with a clear waterproof and UV proof coating as recommended in the owners manual, to protect it from water damage and turning gray. Cedar will turn gray and weathered looking if not protected. I would highly recommend purchasing this gazebo! You will live it!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this gazebo this past spring and it is perfect for our patio. I also purchased the installation package and it was well worth the money. I am very happy with the quality of the gazebo.
