I wasn't sure if it would be too big for our relatively small yard, but it has changed the whole look of our backyard. We used to have the grill pressed up against the house, but we actually moved it out into the middle of the patio with the gazebo over it, hung some lights, and have the table a bit further out... and it looks like the back of a restaurant now. I thought it was neat but I actually really didn't expect it to so dramatically change the look of our yard. People comment on it every time they come over.

Perfect addition to the deck! All the components were well thought out and easy to install. Everything was well packaged, and all parts were clearly identified either stamped on the end of the wooden components or in well numbered parts bags that matched the instructions to a tee. The Bilt app makes installation a snap, as you can clearly see all parts from any angle to ensure you have the right part and that you have it aligned correctly. Love that it is made from cedar. Should stand up longer to the elements and light enough to be installed on my deck.

The gazebo was very well packaged. Everything was there, no missing parts. They even provide screw tips for you. Took me, by myself about 8 hours start to finish on two separate days. Assembling the roof frame, then adding the roof tiles was the way to go. Very heavy. Very well made product. Instructions easy. The bilt app was a huge help. Really great gazebo. Looking forward to grilling underneath it soon. Just need to add some thompsons water seal.

I bought this to put on our farm for small community activities and it’s great! It did take a WHILE to assemble. The instructions thought it would take 3 people about 6 hours to assemble - that was wildly wrong. We had four people (2 strong people, an engineer, and an architect) and it took us 2.5 days (about 16-20 hours). It was simple to follow the instructions and all of the pieces and hardware were well labeled. The app instructions were much more clear than the printed booklet. It looks excellent, we love it, and I already want another!

I bought this March 29,2022. I was expecting a three week wait time. It turned out to be more like 6 weeks. I should’ve paid for installation. My husband and I put it up together. I had my grandsons help put the roof on. We had to ream out some of the pre-drilled holes. It looks very nice.

Got this Gazebo last summer because I got tired of melting my vinyl siding. I'm now able to grill in all weather types. The electrical features allow for music and television on the outside deck and the shelving is perfect for the margarita maker. I had no problems building this by myself and only needed assistance placing the roof on top of the structure. Love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this a couple of months ago and have been having so much fun adding to it. We poured a concrete slab to set it on, added a bar around the entire interior perimeter, installed ceiling fans, wrap around lights, used cedar planks to semi enclose, are in the process of screening it in so we can enjoy it as a mosquito free gazebo, and will be installing a tile or stone floor. Such a fun project, easy to install and customize, and we love the addition to our yard. We also purchased a grillzebo for the other side of the pool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We wanted a lean-to style gazebo to protect our cob oven and have extra room for other outdoor cooking. After pricing out materials to build one from scratch, we found it would have cost close to what we'd spend on the Saxony XL, not to mention take us longer to build without a kit, so we decided to go with this one from Backyard Discovery. We're really happy with the results. We did find out the hard way that it's best to actually follow the instructions to a T rather than assume things and "freelance," so we had to undo things a couple of times and read the instructions more carefully, but all worked out in the end. My husband and I were able to build the gazebo, including lifting the roof into place, without additional help. One roof panel was missing -- which we didn't discover until we actually opened that box when we were ready to put the panels on -- but the missing piece was shipped out to us at no cost and arrived within a few days. The only downside was that the single sheet of metal roofing wasn't braced or padded in the box, and it arrived bent. But we used it as it was, and you can't really see the bend. Overall, we're really happy with the gazebo and the customer service.

Backyard landscaping is finally done and the gazebo could not have turned out better. Took a couple days to assemble but turned out great. I didn't way to use string lights, I grill and bbq quite a bit and there is just not enough light. I work in the lighting/electrical engineerimg industry and installed (3) LED strips with black finish to match the ceiling with all of the pipe ran on top of the cover, so it looks pretty clean and very bright.

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.
