[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my gazebo installed last summer and I am in love with it. It is my favorite spot to sit and relax with my girlfriend and my dog and it compliments the patio furniture well. I may get the covered grill portion next!

The instructions were very thorough, I would recommend downloading the BILT AP as well. I would recommend a total of 3 people to install the roof panels but can be done with two strong people that have some basic carpentry skills. Keep all parts organized and take your time, the end result is beautiful. Highly recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gazebo is beautiful. The quality of workmanship excellent. And best of all it came with easy to follow instructions and every pre drilled hole was exactly where it was supposed to be and add to that every screw bolt nut etc was there. We love it.

We purchased the 14x10' gazebo in 2021 and assembled it over Memorial Day weekend. Wisconsin can provide some challenging weather and so far the Gazebo has withstood it well. We added a bar, lights, 2 TV's and a ceiling fan. It is our oasis in Milwaukee.

Great value for the money. Gazebo is well constructed and provides a great addition to any home. Word of caution...don't use GoConfigure for installation. Our experience was horrible! It took approximately six weeks to get someone scheduled for installation, and the installers were terrible. We used the app thumbtack to hire a crew to install our gazebo.

I bought this 16x12 Barrington for its style and guarantees with the wind and weight load. Most gazebos, I noticed my research, are only rated for half the wind and weight load of this one. It came palletized in six boxes. You need a large area to spread everything out to make sense of the parts. There were two pieces of wood that were damaged in the box, but the company immediately replaced same within a couple days without a problem. I did need two other people to attach the legs to the framework and again to install the roof panels. The 16-ft roof panels were a challenge to install because of their weight and awkwardness of its size. I did need a little help with the rubber mallet and wood clamps for this step. I did find it weird that you install the drip edge over the roof and not under. The rain does go down under the drip edge, over the cedar fascia, and onto the deck. I don't know how long this wood will last before rotting. They should figure out a different way to finish the roof with the water being diverted in a different way. Also, when I had the paver patio installed I gave the contractor the measurements to wear each post was going to be located. He then poured a concrete footing under the pavers and those pavers are also embedded in the concrete. I used 5-in concrete anchor screws to lock down the posts.

We purchased our Cordova 14X10 Gazeebo in July and had it installed on our pool deck on four foot deep concrete footers. One of the main reasons we went with Backyard Discovery was the ability for the structure to withstand heavy winds. I live in the Tampa area and we just went through Hurricane Milton last night. I had major concerns about the metal roof and when I woke up this morning, the entire structure was completely intact. Apart from the being a beautiful structure, it’s amazing to see that it withstood 90 mph gusts and sustained winds of 75 mph for several hours. If you want a well built and beautiful pavilion, I’d highly recommend Backyard Discovery. We couldn’t be more pleased.

We purchased this gazebo a few months ago and we are very happy with it. Everything was included that we needed to erect it. The lumber was pre-cut to the correct dimensions and the holes were all pre-drilled. Our sons helped us build it on a Saturday and we were finished by mid-afternoon. The only thing we didn't realize until after we purchased it was that we were strongly encouraged to apply a sealer to all the lumber before erecting it. While that required a little extra prep time, we're glad we did it. Other than that, everything was as we expected.

This is our second gazebo to build at two different locations and it was a great experience. My wife and I (61 and 58 years old) assembled the gazebo by ourselves. We had our neighbor help with the 14foot roof panels, but we did everything else by ourselves. It was straightforward with the instructions. Just take your time. It helps to have the right tools, drills, etc. to assemble. The quality of the wood is great. And there are plenty of extra bolts and screws for future repairs or needs. If you enjoy DIY projects, this is a fun one to build.

This gazebo is very nice when complete. We were concerned with space and the level of our concrete patio since we have a pool and the concrete slopes so we opted to put it together ourselves. Oh my.... that was a project and there was much cussing. But the finished product is absolutely worth it. We've installed a ceiling fan and string lights. We will be installing one of backyard disvovery's grill gazebos that matches the Cordova as soon as the slab is ready!
