[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased the 20'x9.5' Arcadia Gazebo in April 2023. Took 2 inexperienced people approx 10 hrs to assemble over 2 days. It is a beautiful addition to our deck, provides excellent shade and a pleasant area to relax. Family members and neighbors are envious!

All parts were there with extras of most of the hardware. A couple of guys and myself took 2 days to fully complete the install. But probably 1 day full day with 2 or 3 people would work. We took our time. Overall fairly easy. There's a couple of areas where you have to pay attention to which boards to put together in correct orientation but generally instructions were good. Roof went on fairly easily. I couldn't drill into my concrete patio with the bits provided. But it's so sturdy I'm thinking of leaving the posts free standing.

This was my mothers day present and honest has been the best addition to our backyard. We used it all summer and now into fall. I’m beyond obsessed. It’s so durable but also its so lovely when it rains or drizzles hearing it hit the roof. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking. It took quite a while to put together but the whole family loves it.

Bought this gazebo because of the size and shape for my back porch. It gets lots of sun and was too hot to sit out there, as well to have rain coverage. We flipped it where the high end is next the house so it drains way from the house. Took three of us to put together in about 5 hours and three of us to put the roof on. Best way is to put a ladder in the center and push it up, we had three people to push it. You will have to treat it with stain, but over all high quality, instructions are easy to follow. Looking forward to hanging out now in the backyard. The dogs are too!

I was planning on designing and building my own covered grilling / smoking area, but I have been "planning" for 4 years now, and somehow never got around to it. Then I saw an ad for the Saxony XL Gazebo and it was exactly what I wanted to build. I finally decided to go ahead and buy this kit and am very happy that I did! The hardest part of this project for me was the site preparation. I had to clear out old landscaping and run electrical wiring for a smoker and lights. Then I installed pavers and was finally ready to assemble the gazebo. After staining all the parts, assembly was a breeze. I was very impressed with how well laid out everything was and all pilot holes and whatnot were right on. I was having a bit of a hard time attaching the roof panels but found that setting the front edge on some scrap 2x4's made it much easier. You can see that in the first photo. The next hardest part was putting the roof on, but luckily three of my son's friends came over to help. They are all over 6' so we didn't even need a ladder! :) Now I just need to get my grill and smoker in place and do some landscaping around the gazebo. But somehow it got to be December and in the Pacific Northwest, that is not a great time for yardwork...

We bought the gazebo last fall since it was out of stock everywhere last summer, but with such solid reviews we wanted to wait…..and it was well worth the wait!! What a well built gazebo for the money and the design is so convenient having the two shelves while cooking! I can’t say enough good things! We even added our own panels on the back for additional shade and protection. If on the fence, press “buy” today.

Backyard landscaping is finally done and the gazebo could not have turned out better. Took a couple days to assemble but turned out great. I didn't way to use string lights, I grill and bbq quite a bit and there is just not enough light. I work in the lighting/electrical engineerimg industry and installed (3) LED strips with black finish to match the ceiling with all of the pipe ran on top of the cover, so it looks pretty clean and very bright.

I bought this back in October and it took me 2 days to complete. Pretty straightforward instructions just keep all your fasteners separated. Definitely solicit the help from two or three friends to put the roof portion on hasn't made it very easy. I purchased corrugated galvanized Barn Roofing from the local hardware store and covered in the back which is very helpful when it snows as you can see from the pictures. Miss gazebo is well worth the price and a bargain compared to others.

Got this Gazebo last summer because I got tired of melting my vinyl siding. I'm now able to grill in all weather types. The electrical features allow for music and television on the outside deck and the shelving is perfect for the margarita maker. I had no problems building this by myself and only needed assistance placing the roof on top of the structure. Love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few months ago and looks amazing and fits the need perfectly. Assembly directions where so simple to follow and went togther as directed. Was able to do 90 percent solo and then with an extra person came togther quickly. Only thing I needed to add afterwords was so drip edge to the backside to further keep the rain off the back end.
