Description: the description and online photos are 100% accurate. As described, the structure is super solid and pre-drilled holes are spot on. Price: excellent price considering the quality of the product. Packing: it comes in 4 boxes strapped to one 4x8 pallet. The pieces are well packed and easy to inventory. The only annoying thing was peeling all the plastic wrapping off the metal pieces (overkill). Assembly: it went very smoothly. I needed 2 additional people to get the initial steps completed to get the structure established. Then I didn’t need help until putting the roof sections into place. It took just over 1 day (14 hours) to assemble the structure. I lost a lot of time peeling the plastic wrap off the metal pieces. Of note: Keep in mind this is an outdoor structure, so the corners and long boards connect with small gaps and moderately flush. Regardless, the structure is super solid and rain doesn’t not penetrate the roof AT ALL...dry everywhere underneath during a rain storm. Assembly: it

I bought my 10 x 10 ft.gazebo last fall and erected it in May. I decided to stain it Brown to:match my deck and stained all the pieces before putting it together. I am 85 years old and aside from installing the roof sections with a little help I was able to do most of the work alone. We love it..Good value for the money and it will last long after I’m in the ash can. . The instruction booklet was well put together and easy to understand…

People always stop and ask who are contractor was who built it. If you take your time and make sure everything is level and straight it goes together fairly easily. The only negative is peeling off the plastic coating from the aluminum panels.......what a pain! Customer service is awesome.....their response and followup is one of the best I have ever experienced. All in all we are extremely satisfied.

We love our gazebo. It helped us to create a whole outdoor living area. It definitely took an entire day to put together but well worth it. It looks great and we get a ton of compliments. We are getting ready to purchase another one for the side of our house.

Extremely happy with our Gazebo! The materials are top quality. If you tried to go out and buy the materials and build one from scratch (assuming you had the skills) - materials alone would cost more than this entire unit. Such an incredible value - such a beautiful addition to our backyard. Buy one - NOW!!!

We set up our gazebo on our patio in the backyard. Provides perfect shade and shelter for barbecuing in the rain. Solidly built and aesthetically appealing as well. Hollow posts allowed us to easily run wiring for twinkle lights, providing a great atmosphere at night. Yardistry customer service also amazing. We had a piece crsck about a month after install and they were so helpful and replaced it very quickly.

The Gazebo covers a above ground Spa. It provides shade during sunshine days and protection from the rain in bad weather. With the lights we added it makes spa use at any time and in any weather. at the instructions were very helpful and direct. It indicated you would need up to four people during some steps and if those instructions were followed everything went well.

We have had ours for nearly 5 years. Last year we redid the stain using a Cabot product. Found a very close color match with no problem. Still water tight and with the new stain looks like new. It was fairly easy for an experienced DYIer. Need to go slow and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. We set up an assembly area on the basketball court with saw horses and an assembly table. Well worth the price!!

I installed this pergola last August, 2022. I was truly impressed with great thoughtful reviews submitted and fair pricing. We had extensive experience on hand to install the pergola and followed the instructions to the T! Like others we installed the pergola in one full day. It’s a great looking structure for our newly landscaped yard however definitely faults in wood selected. Now we’re going to have to use filler on all the gaps and stain. Time we won’t get back there. Unlike your feedback to other comments, many of the wood splitting are not located anywhere near where the screws are drilled in (see photos). Recommendation to Yardistry: Ensure Quality Assurance really takes a good look at the structural pillars used for this product. Now I’m crossing fingers in hopes that our efforts to get longevity works.

I've wanted this gazebo for over a year now, but I had to get the "boss" to approve. She finally caved and let me buy it a few weeks ago! I ordered it online and picked it up a week ago. It's been completed now for 2 days and all I can say is I love it! Our backyard is not very big at all and our covered patio just wasn't enough. When we had a paver patio installed last summer, it gave us more entertainment room, but without any kind of shade, it didn't allow us to do much, especially in the hot summer sun of Phoenix. I'm glad I finally was able to purchase this gazebo and allow our family to enjoy the backyard year round! Construction is not for everyone. I work in the building materials industry and I have some extensive DIY experience, but this wasn't easy. The directions, at times, were hard to follow because there were some grammatical errors. And then some of the wood was warped (one of the side beams was warped, as well as a few of the of roof rafter beams), which made it difficult to fasten. Overall, I thought the construction was pretty straight-forward. The quality of the gazebo is excellent! I feel it's extremely sturdy and will stand the test of time. My wife already put on a coat of stain/sealer to darken the wood a little bit and it looks great! We'll be adding a fan and some string lights in the coming weeks. Overall: AWESOME PRODUCT!!! 4-Star Review only because of the warped wood and slight difficulty understanding installation instructions.
