[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few months ago and looks amazing and fits the need perfectly. Assembly directions where so simple to follow and went togther as directed. Was able to do 90 percent solo and then with an extra person came togther quickly. Only thing I needed to add afterwords was so drip edge to the backside to further keep the rain off the back end.

The assembly company offered on the website does not have any PNW crews so I had to hire my own. I had 4 guys on the first day and 2 guys for an additional 3 days, working full 8-9 hour days. They were carpenters who did excellent work, it just took a really long time. The finished carport looks outstanding.

I was planning on designing and building my own covered grilling / smoking area, but I have been "planning" for 4 years now, and somehow never got around to it. Then I saw an ad for the Saxony XL Gazebo and it was exactly what I wanted to build. I finally decided to go ahead and buy this kit and am very happy that I did! The hardest part of this project for me was the site preparation. I had to clear out old landscaping and run electrical wiring for a smoker and lights. Then I installed pavers and was finally ready to assemble the gazebo. After staining all the parts, assembly was a breeze. I was very impressed with how well laid out everything was and all pilot holes and whatnot were right on. I was having a bit of a hard time attaching the roof panels but found that setting the front edge on some scrap 2x4's made it much easier. You can see that in the first photo. The next hardest part was putting the roof on, but luckily three of my son's friends came over to help. They are all over 6' so we didn't even need a ladder! :) Now I just need to get my grill and smoker in place and do some landscaping around the gazebo. But somehow it got to be December and in the Pacific Northwest, that is not a great time for yardwork...

I couldn’t be happier with this gazebo. The 14x12 Arcadia is the perfect fit for our patio, providing both shade and a beautiful focal point in the backyard. The cedar wood is rich in color, sturdy, and really elevates the whole space. Assembly does take some time (a solid weekend project for two people), but every piece is well-labeled and precision cut, which made the process straightforward and satisfying. Once assembled, the structure feels rock-solid and has handled both wind and heavy Nebraska summer storms without issue. The modern, lean-to roof design complements the house perfectly and gives just the right amount of height and openness. We added string lights, and now it feels like a true outdoor living room. What I especially appreciate is that it’s functional year-round: it keeps the grill and dining set covered, while still letting in plenty of natural light. For the price, you’re getting something that looks custom-built, but at a fraction of the cost. If you’re on the fence—don’t hesitate. This gazebo is a fantastic investment in both your home’s value and your outdoor lifestyle.

This is the ideal setup for any patio or deck setup. Large enough to fit a full grill or flattop with space to sit and enjoy drinks while you wait on a meal. The full top keeps your equipment mostly out of the elements and space to hook up your electrical equipment.

This build went extremely easily. I did it by myself over 2 days. About 5 hours each day. I did go slightly out of order. After assembling the rafters, I secured the roof on the gazebo before installing the roof panels. This made it easier to lift the roof up. make sure you recheck for square before adding panels.

I bought this Saxony Grill Gazebo about 1 year ago. It meets all my expectations. The added AC/USB module puts it over the top for sure. Easy to run my rotisserie unit and charge phones, etc. It fits right in with my other gazebo and hot tub surround. We love it - You will too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this when we had an old deck replaced. Shopped around and found this. IT IS PERFECT and BEAUTIFUL, in my opinion. My grills fit perfectly. My wife spruced it up with some lights and we are ready to go. I put it together myself over a weekend and just needed a neighbor to help me lift the roof into place during the final steps. If you are looking for a grill gazebo, this is the one. High quality!!!! Note... due to the way it sits on my deck, I chose to only put the bar table on one side. So you do have that option.

We bought this to have a covered area on our new patio for our grill and smoker. The materials are very solid and well made. The assembly wasn't too difficult. I love that a surge protector is included so that adding lights as well as using small appliances on the side shelves is no trouble. The grill gazebo makes the patio look great!
