We bought this for shade around the pool. The order took months and we had to contact Sam’s to find out when it would be delivered as the time allocated on the website was not accurate. We were told they would contact us to deliver, yet one day we arrived home to find it all over our lawn in the pouring rain. When we assembled this structure though, the directions were good and the structure seems durable…

Unfortunately I do not have the gazebo up some issues that I am trying to clear up has held up the assembly. I did see this gazebo in person set up in Sams club and I fell in love with it immediately and it is so sturdy and so well designed I knew right away that i had to have it. Again I cannot take pictures or video until I have it assembled, but be rest assured that I will share many pictures and video as soon as that happens. Thank you Backyard Discovery for an amazing gazebo!

Bought this gazebo July 2021. Assembly was… intense. You may want to pay for assembly unless you have a couple of strong people around. Love this so much. Still looks wonderful. Great size. We mounted a tv in one corner and even installed ceiling fans. We spend much more time outside because of it.

I bought this gazebo last summer ( 2022 ) and it has surpassed our expectations completely. Hard rains with 60+ mph winds, Snow sitting on it for a month plus and it hasn't budged. Its not even bolted down. We added a ceiling fan, Tv with drop down mount and all the accent lights. My wife loves it and if she is happy , then I am happy. The installation from Goconfigure was awesome. They showed up on time and I was ecpecting it would take a solid day with 2 guys to build it. Nope, about 4 hours. They knew what they were doing. Well worth the money for both the gazebo and the headache of installing it. I'd do it again 100x . I did my research when it came to a gazebo that would last. After all of the wicked weather we have had in the last 8 months it still looks like its brand new. Cant say enough!!!

Bought this 2 month's ago. Looks well built and the instructions are decent. The ap with 3d helps alot. The only things that would help are better markings on hardware bags(not black). And the boards that are have holes that should down to be labeled as lower/upper.

We bought this gazebo last summer and it made it through a Wisconsin winter with no problems. Added some lights and a ceiling fan and it is our favorite spot to hang out. Assembly was a bit of a project and required 2 people but it was no more than expected given the size and weight of the gazebo. All pieces were accounted for and it went together quickly. I have no doubt this gazebo is going to last us years. I can't wait to finish the deck and railings in the same beautiful dark walnut stain, which is fairly easy to match.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] [Employee of backyarddiscovery] Ever since i upgraded my backyard by building Cordova 14x10 Gazebo, I've been excited to stay and hang around with friends or family preparing food, bbqing, talking and having fun. I have never enjoyed my backyard like this before.

Let me syart by sayonf I dont wrie reviews but was so impressed with this I wanted to share my thought and give credit where credit is due. My mom purchased this after having 2 steel frame with cloth covers for the past several years with the hassle of trying to get replacemnt covers. I researched the Cordova. We live in Northeast and need to have at least 40 pound per square foot snow load. This exceeded the regional snow rating and I also liked the all wood frame construction. I've built alot of things over many years from house framing to steel buildings and am usually dissappointed with kit type products being a professional. This was really easy to put together and alot of detail was put into the design as well as the assembly manual. Everything was very clear and easy to follow step by step. As long as you can read and have some skill I thing even someone without extensive construction skills could assemble one of these. I am completely satisfied with the finished product it goes beyond my expectations and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice product at a reasonble price.

Backyard Discovery 14’ x 10’ Cordova Gazebo Review This is a well-designed and organized kit for simple construction with minimal experience. It is packaged and labeled well. The instructions are clear except for a couple of places I’ll note below. Delivery: The order arrived in Houston about a week before the estimated delivery date but was not delivered to us until a week after the estimated delivery date. The packages were all in good condition. They are heavy to move around. Assistance & Assembly Time: I was able to do the assembly completely by myself except for two times I needed a few assistants for about ½ hour each time. [Step 7 (Attach 14-ft beams to posts with 10-ft beams attached), Step 12 (Installing roof support), and Step 30-35 (Attach roof panels).] It is a lot of bending over, moving parts, and using a drill to install connectors. I worked on it for about 5 days for about 4 hours each day. Tools: It would help if the Screw Setter H100764 was magnetic to hold screws while lining up with the holes. A hammer drill and 3/16” hammer drill bit are needed for installation on a concrete slab. I used firring strips as spacers between roof panels during construction so they could lay on top of each other during assembly. Positioning: Layout and mark final post positions. We put the gazebo next to our house with a 6” gap between the house gutter and the gazebo roof edge. This was barely enough to pass the roof section up between the gap and took some extra hands to support this during installation. It also made installing the Corner Ridge Cap in Step 40 difficult as this is intended to slide onto Ridge Cap Channel from the bottom. We used pliers to bend open the Corner Ridge Cap on one side to allow this to clip over the Ridge Cap Channel and then bend back in place as best as possible before sliding into position. Assembly Notes: Recommend doing Step 9-11 before Step 7-8 so assistants can help with Step 7 and Step 12 at the same time. I did all roof panel framing before attaching sheeting. (Step 14-18 twice, Step 22-26 twice, then Step 19-21 twice and Step 27-29 twice.) IMPORTANT NOTES: Step 20 & 28 Ridge Cap Channel Assembly – Ensure the bottom end of the channel is above the bottom roof joist to allow space for installation of the Edge Trim Corner Splice in Step 38. THIS IS NOT MENTOINED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS. Step 38 Edge Trim Corner Splice Assembly – Ensure Edge Trim Corner Splice is UNDER the Ridge Cap Channel. THIS IS NOT CLEAR IN THE INSTRUCTIONS. This is needed to allow installation of the Corner Ridge Cap in Step 40.
