[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had spent years running out during high winds or thunder storms, climbing on a ladder to pull the cover off my old lightweight patio gazebo. I desperately wanted to upgrade but the cost of building my own was crazy expensive. Then comes the Cordova! What a huge upgrade! Unit looks great even like I built it myself (well I did!). It was a lot of work to build but I’m very happy with the outcome. Be sure to give yourself time to build it. It does take time and extra help. Don’t rush and layout all of the parts. You’ll need extra help lifting the roof panels into place. They are not light. Plan ahead, take your time and it will be well worth the effort. They also gave one or two extra of every fastener. No missing parts! That all said, I did have a number of chipped or warped boards. Careful planning allowed me to cover or straighten most of them. Backyard Discovery did offer to send me extra stain (which was nice!) but haven’t seen it yet. Will be adding my own electrical and ceiling fan in the next week. Just in time to enjoy the summer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bough the gazebo one month ago and is happy about it. The wood smells so good and it is light, but sturdy! easy for us to assemble all by ourselves. The size is great to connect with our pool, provides good seating spaces. The customer service is also excellent, we missing one type of screws, they shipped out to us within 2 days which is great. Overall, happy with the purchase and highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought it and had it installed. After watching the guys put it up, that was money well spent. We love the extra room it provides with cover, and the dogs and our cat who believes he is a dog spends many hours there.

I bought the 14x12 Barrington Gazebo in September for our backyard and haven’t regretted it for a second. Delivery was smooth, assembly (for an extra fee) was excellent and we have really enjoyed the purchase. It’s been a perfect addition for our backyard.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been wanting to have a gazebo for our backyard and I'm happy I did buy this Backyard Gazebo 10×14, it is perfect and sturdy! Assembly is fairly easy, it took us 2 days to put it up with the help of our friends! Now we can enjoy eating out more by the backyard with this beautiful gazebo!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice looking gazebo! I built the whole project myself using only the instructions supplied. I did download the video, but the instructions were good enough to complete the project. The project is forgiving enough that you don't have to be exact on your measurements or squareness, but the closet you are, the easier it will go together for you. I poured four concrete pads for the legs and got those nice and level and I made them 24 inches square and that have me plenty of room to make adjustments to the awareness of the base once I started the assembly of all the component pieces. I would recommend at least two helpers when putting the roof pieces up because they were too awkward for me to get them in place by myself. My only complaint is that one piece of structure was damaged by a tomorrow fork, but it turned out to be hidden once the project was completed and I didn't have to wait on getting a replacement part. Overall, great looking gazebo at a fair price! I'm glad it is finished and we can enjoy it. It took me about a month to finish it from sight prep to completion, but I did work alone on 95% of it, so a helper would save you a lot of time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this to go above our hot tub in our back yard. It has done it's job providing necessary shade and weather protection. We are very pleased with the quality of the materials. They were shipped in multiple boxes, which were not organized based off of procedure steps. This would have been more helpful in easily locating the correct hardware for the correct steps. However, the instructions were very straightforward, and all components arrived undamaged and in excellent condition.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this item about 8 months ago. I was a little hesitant in assembly it, but once I got started, it was fairly easy. The roofing was a little tricky, but overall, it was very user friendly.

Save yourself a lot of time and money and build your own. This is all cheap 1" wood. You have to spend an hour finding 5 different numbered boards, numerous numbered nuts and bolts, to bolt them all together to make what should be just a 2x6x14 to save them on shipping costs. Wood scratches and mars easily when assembling making it look terrible before it's even up. Sheet metal is cheap and thin and arrived dented. Nothing lines up like it's supposed to cheap 1" wood warped and bowed immediately after short, which took an hour to sort into numerical pikes of wood and hardware. I am amazed at all the 5 star reviews, they must be fake. I'm a contractor and could have bought nice redwood and sheet metal and been done eith my own in a two days. 6x6s are fake and hollow inside, pre drilled holes don't line up, metal sheets don't line up. This was a mistake.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased and assembled our gazebo this past summer and used it many times rain or shine. It was not difficult to assemble. The directions were clear and detailed. We have received many compliments on its appearance from our friends and neighbors. We are very pleased with the price compared to hiring someone to build one from scratch. We highly recommend this kit.
