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 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 seen this product in the store. It looked very sturdy and I was not wrong about that. Took a while to install because you do have to put everything together but overall, it was a good deal. I’d say installation took around maybe 16 hours over the course of a few weeks, no rush on our end we have no complaints regarding the plastic coating, blue or clear on any of the panels. It did not take us a while to peel them off. I would recommend if you live in warmer climate to do that as soon as possible or if possible do it in a cooler area because I think that that makes it easier. Looks great glad we purchased.

I regret buying it, and now I’m stuck with this humongous object in my yard. The plastic is stuck to the metal and won’t come off. The paint underneath the plastic is peeling. Assembling it was a nightmare — we had to pay people to help us, and even then, we could never get the plastic off the metal.

I have a large yard with a pool and gorgeous mountain views! This Gazebo makes it look even more impressive. Everyone that has seen it loves it! Very good quality with all the parts were there to put it together! It is a very time consuming project. I'm sure we could do a second one in half the time but don't think your'e going to get it done in one weekend. Luckily I spent 1/2 a day before help arrived just unpacking it and getting all the plastic off the roof pieces.

We bought product about 2 months ago. Like that it had predrilled holes so you know exactly where to attach parts. Instructions were easy to use. Make sure you have 4 to 5 people for roof assembly, but otherwise it is an easy 2 person job. Love the looks and gives good shade.

We are both 72. We constructed all the parts and erected the 10 x 10 frame on a wood deck 21 inches above the ground with no assistance. We then waited 3 weeks until the Stay at home order was lifted and our Kids ( adults) came out and installed the roof panel . We found the instructions clear,easy to understand and along with the videos very helpful. I required the Adult kids to watch the roof install video . From start to finish under 2 hours. We laided out every item and counted every thing. Being organize ,having a place to lay down material so they can be counted . Very good and well made Gazebo

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.

Built structure two years ago and still looks great. Will be restaining and sealing the wood this spring. Structure was easy to assemble but required three extra people to get the roof on and into place. I was able to do assembly mostly by oneself. Two required to put up legs and cross members. Instructions were clear and their videos on line were excellent. Great product and design.

After allot of researching different products and companies I purchased the Meridian Gazebo. It took 2 full days to assemble. Wood quality and pre-drilled hole alignment was excellent overall, I only had to re-drill 3 holes as they were only slightly off. The roof assembly was the most challenging. I'd suggest to lay all the roof panels on the wood before screwing anything down. I also used a clamp and wood to help bring the roof panels close enough to begin joining them. Overall, it goes together well and the end product was worth the cost and effort.
