We got delivery in October and enjoyed it from the first day it was completed. My son, son-in-law, and a friend put it together. The parts are well marked making the build much easier than expected. Cedar is good quality making the Back Yard Discovery Gazebo a beautiful addition to our property. The only drawback is winter! 🥶 Can’t wait until spring so we can get back to enjoying our Back Yard Discovery Gazebo!

We purchased this in 2022 and I assembled it in the late summer. It has proven to be a focal point for the family as we can still sit outside in all conditions rain or shine. It would be a lot easier to put together with more than one person but it can be done. The Gazebo was well made just follow the instructions and use the bilt app for added clarity.

We purchased our Gazebo about a month ago and it is one of the best purchases we ever made! We love our back deck, but in the afternoon and early evening, the sun beats down on the deck making it almost unusable. We installed the Gazebo on the deck and added roll up/down blinds to the west and north side, a ceiling fan, and lighting. Our only regret is that we didn’t do it 20 years ago. My wife and I installed the deck doing most of the work ourselves. We engaged our son to help lift the 12 foot roof panels into place. You definitely need at least 3 people for that step. The instructions and BILT app were absolutely perfect. They were very clear and we didn’t encounter any mistakes or issues. We finished it with linseed oil, which we plan on reapplying twice a year (spring and fall).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Cordova 14×12 gazebo has completely changed the look and appeal of our backyard. Yes, there were a few warped boards but they pretty much straightened out once we tightened down the brackets. It took all of three days to assemble, don't try it alone! I recommend using the instructional video vs the hardcopy version. I also recommend applying oil based sealant for an extra layer of protection. It's been up for just a couple of months so time will tell how it stands up to Texas extreme weather conditions, but looks great for now. Note - don't forget to go back and tighten the screws/bolts that the instructions say to hand tighten at first!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing in every way! Gave us the outdoor space we wanted at a fraction of the cost!! Beautiful, spacious, solid, and can be kitted out in so many ways! We’ve added a fan with light, TV, hammock, curtains, heater, ring game and 8pc patio furniture set with Blackstone griddle off the side. 5 stars for SURE!

The assembly of the product has very little tolerance for error and field conditions. Roof panels do not overlap with wide seams. I have a concern for when it rains that water will drip through the seams. Further the fact that the entire process requires assistance of others to install is a downfall in my opinion. Assembly of the roof in four units that each require lifting is not a good idea. The units are very heavy and lifting is awkward and not safe for a 16ft section. The roof should be considered to be assembled in place. Hardware is a low grade steel and should be replaced/ upgraded in key areas such as where the roof sections combine. Overall the unit has a nice look but could benefit from another person or review assembly by a single person.

Got a quote from a contractor for a 10x10 gazebo and was quoted $14,000+. We found this and for the price it was worth a try. There were some very slight imperfections on the wood when arrived (from shipping co.). I was able to assemble mostly everything myself. Lifting the roof panels definitely requires 3 people and ladders for each. We bought this as part of building our dream outdoor kitchen. We've had the gazebo for 9 months now through rain and wind and blasting sun, and it still looks brand new. We are very happy with the purchase and for the price you can't beat it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were so impressed with the Backyard Discovery pergola that we purchased last summer, we purchased the 14x 10 Cordova Gazebo last fall to compliment our new pool. The quality is just as nice s the pergola (even better with the thicker corner posts). The instructions we simple to follow and my husband and I assembled this together without any difficulties or confusion. The company kept us informed regarding the shipping logistics when we had questions about the delivery. The shipment arrived undamaged and complete. This gazebo is a game changer for our backyard and provides much needed relief from the Gulf Coast sun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wonderful gazabo. Exceptional craftsmanship and instructions for assembly with the BILT app made this a no-brainer. We did have someone assemble for us; however, no issues were noted. We loved this product so much, we purchased another for our pool, and the large grill gazebo. Should the need arise, I will not hesitate to purchase this product again for other areas. Don't hesitate, buy it. In my opinion, you won't be sorry!

So I will start with this review in regards to our first gazebo. The first one we put it together, it took about a day or so, definitely is do able with 2 people that have very little experience. I absolutely loved it we had the lights around the inside carpet down it definitely set the tone for a relaxing backyard. But, I skipped a step and own 100 percent of this. I failed to secure this monster gazebo into my stamped concrete patio and it was a costly mistake. With that being said, we loved it so much that I of course had to purchase another one. Same size, same location. The second one we put up I had paid for the company to install it. This was money WELL spent. This team of guys came in and blasted this thing up in about 5 hours. The one thing the installation company doesn’t do is secure it to the patio. (WHICH IMMEDIATELY DID). So this summer we look forward to enjoying this. I can’t stress it enough since I have purchased 2, well worth it!!
