[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this prior to Memorial day, knowing it would be a great addition for our backyard and pool. I purchased professional installation as well. The only drawback to the installation was the gazebo set in my garage until late July waiting for the installers to arrive. I had an early June date originally and they cancelled on me. Once the gazebo was erected it was everything I though it would be. I added a ceiling fan, roller shade to one side and towel rack for pool towels. It provides nice shade for hot days and cover for my backyard grilling. Overall a great investment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been wanting to cover our patio f or some time. After manh years of research, we decided on the Cordova. Not only did it come in the size we needed, it can withstand snow, hail and wind up to 100mph!!!!! It also had the option for assembly, which is well worth it. Overall our Gazebo is more than we expected! We raved about it so much, that my Sister bought one too!

I bought this kit about a month ago. 5 boxes with the heaviest around 200lbs. No parts were missing after unpacking. Everything was labeled well. Pretty straightforward and detailed instructions. Takes 2 people about 2 days install. Tips: sort and put in order all of the wood and same with the hardware by number. I placed my gazebo on a paver patio so I had to remove a few pavers to place 4 footers 12" round and 32" deep then reinstalled pavers. Also when you installed the footers, use the Sampson post plates instead of what they give you. This will give you a little leeway or ability to adjust. Don't even go to forward until your post are absolutely square and level. Hardest part of the job is peeling the shri k wrap off the metal panels, miserable tedious job. Looks beautiful next to the pool area and I bought a 1 x 6x8 cedar board and cut pieces to accent the pole bottoms.to.not see post brackets. SUPER well made product but takes some time to do it right. Also don't right and get a gallon of seal once and coat each cedar board. Also it doesnt say it anywhere but this gazebo is ve ted at the top too. Good luck and worth it when done!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We replaced our old gazebo with the Backyard Discobery gazebo. It’s well built and very sturdy. There is a convenient electric outlet that makes it easy to add lights and Bluetooth outdoor speakers. It does take awhile to assemble but just followed the instructions step by step. Love it. !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this at the beginning of summer, and it is a relaxing place to share with my family. My backyard is relatively small, but this Cordova Gazebo (14x10) is the perfect size for a small table and our hammocks. The fact that it includes electric and usb connections is awesome.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Birthday present to myself, wish I had got it sooner than September! So relaxing sitting under the metal roof when it rains. I am not going to miss taking down the fabric top from old one! Can't wait for it to snow and have a protected area.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very pleased with the construction of this gazebo. When all the pieces were put together, I had a few neighbors help put those pieces together. Very sturdy and ready for all the abuse Iowa weather will throw at it.

It took my wife and I 5 weeks to assemble, but we worked on it a leisurely pace. It's a good bit of work to put together but it came out really nice. Power tools are HIGHLY recommended, and you have to use your common sense as the instructions are a little fuzzy in certain steps. But overall a good experience and the end product is great/

Overall a very quality product. The assembly time in some of the reviews I read were very aggressive. Pros: Quality wood and hardware. The instructions were great, very detailed and offered many good guides throughout the assembly. Cons: I was missing three boards, all rafters. Two of the rafters were detailed with miter cuts and a rabbit. I am a retired carpenter so instead of waiting for who knows how long to get these, I fabricated these. I only had one other helper, also a retired carpenter. The panel assembly took the longest. I had two other friends help in raising and fastening the roof panels. I still gave it a 4 star because it looks great, is of high quality and the packaging was good. Expect to spend a couple of hours peeling off the protective wrap off the roof panels and drip edges.

When I bought it I was concerned about some of the reviews that damaged/missing parts and that the instructions was not easy to follow. I found that to be further from the truth. It is sturdy and the instructions were simple. For the most part, I put it up by myself and had the wife’s help for the roof in about 2 days.
