It came in five boxes complete with all hardware and special tools with great printed instructions. Also, there are 3-D instructions on the Internet, which were very easy to follow. If done by step-by-step assembly is fairly easy and putting the roof panels on you do need three people I called, the factory once to clarify an instruction very helpful people cleared up the question I had. I would recommend This pergola to anyone with some assembly skills. Very satisfied with it.

Great quality, looks awesome. We only had 2 people to build it, it took us about 18 hrs total over 2 days. Use the BILT app, it gave perfect instructions.

My husband and a couple of neighbors put this together over the course of a week. We didn’t have time to finish it all at once, but it went pretty smooth. We absolutely love this sturdy structure. I will say we had expected the 4 main posts to be solid, but they’re actually hollow. Not really a concern for us, but I don’t believe this was called out in the overall description so I’m just noting here for others, if any interest. We love it and are happy with our purchase!

We really love this thing. It has only been together a week so far but we have spent every night outside sitting under it. The wood smells so good.

The gazebo was well built and instructions were easy to follow for a build this big. Plenty of extra hardware. The predrilled holes were exact. It takes three asults to assembled snd lift the pieces into place.

We love our gazebo! It has transformed our backyard into a beautiful oasis. We hired someone to build it. They completed the project in the same day. It is so nice to have some shade in our backyard. It is the perfect size.

My husband and I put this together in a weekend! It really wasn’t that bad!

Great gazebo, great value, slow, but easy to assemble, most everything fit nicely, great quality hardware is included JUST FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION AND PICTURES VERY CARFULLY. (extremely important for successful project !!!) take your time, 2-3 days easy pace.

Heavy and sturdy, it won't go anywhere when installed correctly. Looks great on my patio. Some negatives. The roof panels are very heavy to raise. It takes 3 strong guys to get the long ones up. The seam cover between the panels will leak. The design is not totally waterproof. The gap is just covered with a thin seal that doesn't extend far enough to ensure rain doesn't migrate to the gap and drip. Don't put a TV in the gable between the panels. Make sure you put electronics under the flat of the panels. Use Red Devils to secure this to your concrete. Do not use the included anchors.

Very disappointed, I can’t believe I gave in and finally purchased it just to find that half way through the build the rest of the boards are warped. We were so excited to use it this summer but now we are contemplating taking it back down to return.
