Bought this from Sam’s Club a few months ago to put on our back patio. The size is perfect. The quality of the wood and the engineering is outstanding. It’s not a simple assembly, but if you’re familiar with hand tools and have a friend or 2, it can be done in a day or two.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my gazebo for its durability and great looks. As soon as it went up people have been stopping by to get a better look. I have it lakeside with a fire pit near by. It’s been a grat place for neighborhood gatherings.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my dream Oasis. I wanted a place to heal and meditate. Everyone who has seen this design loves. We had concrete poured in the front yard. The contractors wished they had one. I would recommend the gazebo and Backyard Discovery.

We bought this Gazebo to provide shade for our backyard pool patio. We love the solid cedar construction and the metal roof which keeps us covered on rainy days. Assembly instructions were very detailed and easy to follow. Extra hardware was also provides for most assembly steps. Could not be happier with this purchase, we look forward to enjoying it for many years to come.

Overall very good kit. I’m an above-average handyman w construction experience. Having the right tools such as good drill, impact drill, extra construction clamps and hammer drill for concrete is important. Three strong people for roof install is a must. Not just for lifting but also moving the roof around to get it all square and booting together. We had some big gaps between roof panels that required moving panels and clamping hard. BILT app and paper instructions are very good. Blue plastic covering on sheet metal is a bear. That took an hour or more all-in peeling off the plastic as it tore in small pieces. There must be a better way to protect the metal. I’m a little concerned about the “corrosion resistant” metal. Saw some evidence of rust already and the panels get scratched a little during assembly. Plan to get brown touch up paint to cover scratches but hope the roof holds up for more than year or two! The pavilion looks great and seems sturdy. Overall I’m very pleased.

I purchased this in August of 2022 at a local Sams. Thought it would be a great addition to my stone patio. I used it almost daily as I installed a fan inside of it with shades for the sides that are in the direct sun. I also bought a small propane heater to use it in cooler temps. Great for watching baseball and enjoying the nice fresh air.

I just finished assembling this gazebo last weekend. I agree with the other points people have said in these reviews. The 10hr assembly is definitely not realistic unless you have two people experienced with this particular gazebo. I'm 53yrs and it took me 22hrs.. Plus another 6hrs combined from another person who helped me the 1st day and 2 more for about an hour to get the roof panels in place. Biggest advice... Pick the bilt app Or the written directions (they are slightly different) and follow it carefully! Once the roof panels are in place and secured by the 1st bolts it's easy to get ahead of yourself seeing what comes next and not look closely at directions. I was missing one piece from one of the 10ft "A" frame pieces (which backyard discovery shipped me 2day express with no problem or hassle) So we put up the other 3 roof panels and secured them. When we finally put 4th and final roof panel in to place I ended up having to loosen almost all the bolts to the other panels and nudge over panels to get all the holes to align... The manuals clearly say do not tighten until they are all in place and bolts started. So again.. It's easy to get ahead of yourself, don't skip something thinking you can come back to it, it's in that order for a reason. Also.. Pay attention to when you have to drill pilot holes! The pieces come with probably 95% of the pilot holes already there for you, but then the instructions will say fasten such and such drilling a pilot hole.. And if you read over it quickly you can think the pilot hole is already there.. Happened to me and wood started to split so backed out thinking I was using wrong screw,... Looked at instructions more carefully, and was like oh... I was supposed to drill pilot hole. Other than that it was pretty straight forward, a couple of the wooden roof cross pieces were warped making holes kind of a pain to align but nothing too bad. I definitely recommend taking the 2-3 hrs before you start and unboxing everything and sorting it, put bags of screws /bolts and washers in numerical order so they're easy to find, and be careful tearing open the bags, don't destroy the markings on the bag identifying what part# they are.. Some washers you'll use a lot of.. Then come back to them hours later and need more of the same part #. Raising the roof panels instead of putting a person on ladder in the middle we had person stand on ground, they used a 2x4 about 6 feet long as a pole to help guide peak of roof panel in place under roof cap, just had to remind them don't put 2x4 against sheet metal roof... Keep it on one of the cross wood frame pieces, it worked well. Bolted all together and tightened down its a very strong structure. It should last a long time and withstand the changes in weather here in Wisconsin and occasional heavy snowfalls.

We purchased the product in March, however it took forever for the professional assembly team to get us on their schedule. The wood seemed to be a little worn in some areas. Not sure of the build quality 100% The product itself looks great. I’m looking forward to many evenings under it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this at the beginning of the summer. It is exactly what I envisioned. It’s is the perfect area for grilling or just for sitting. It provides the shade needed on a hot sunny afternoon. All materials and parts are of the highest quality. The instructions were easy to follow. The whole project went together easily. We plan to enjoy our Cordova Gazebo for many years to come.

The gazebo is beyond our expectations. My husband easily put it together over a weekend and only needed a few friends to help when it came time to “raise the roof.” Between the printed instructions and the app called “Bilt” he didn’t have any trouble at all. It is a great space for our large family to relax in the shade or to listen to the rain on the metal roof. We love our gazebo. It’s well worth it.
