Huge project! Review is worth the read..

Very nice piece for your property! Website offers someone to put it together for you for an expensive price. Honestly this project was over whelming coming out of the box.. full table of hardware (nuts, washers and bolts) 2 tarps full of pieces to assemble. Having it together and knowing what I know now I’d pay to have it put together unless you have a solid week of nothing to do… us 2 men got it put together in 4 sun up to sun down days… The app to use to build this is absolutely awesome. 360 view and you can tap every item to see what it is (down to a washer) and rotate it any way you want. I wish every assemble project was on that app. Although we did run into some part number issues and had to refer back to the hard copy Manuel as bolts 999 do not exist in the package and the app calls for them. A few things where off from the app to book but it was easy to figure out once we looked at the book. Still very worth using the app for assembly. 10/10 recommend staining before putting together. Each section and center beams where 4 boards that had to be bolted together to make one board, that seemed like it could have just been one board cut to spec for each section and would have saved about a days labor but I’m not an engineer so take that for what it’s worth. Also the sheet metal roof, each section of the roof (3) sections came with one little small strip of sheet metal to put at the end of each section. The sheet metal could have been cut wider to fit 8 sheets per section instead of 8 and adding the little strip.. that added extra time to the build. Once all together it’s super heavy, very sturdy and beautiful. We used this to cover our concrete pad at the back door to turn it into a covered patio instead of using it as a carport. It worked great and fits right under the gutters almost against the house. All in all PAY someone to put it together for you!

I finally have a great grilling cover!

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...

Backyard Gazebo

Bought this gazebo because of the size and shape for my back porch. It gets lots of sun and was too hot to sit out there, as well to have rain coverage. We flipped it where the high end is next the house so it drains way from the house. Took three of us to put together in about 5 hours and three of us to put the roof on. Best way is to put a ladder in the center and push it up, we had three people to push it. You will have to treat it with stain, but over all high quality, instructions are easy to follow. Looking forward to hanging out now in the backyard. The dogs are too!

We love our Backyard Discovery Grill Gazebo XL

Our Backyard Discovery Grill Gazebo XL is perfect for covering our pellet grill and soon to be added retro ice chest. It's sturdy and is screwed into the concrete which is important since we live at the top of a hill where we get high wind gusts. My husband added lighting to it which I love. Unfortunately, because of the location, we did not have room to include the side panels for seating. It's perfect for what we needed for a small outdoor kitchen area, providing shade and shelter from the rain. We were even able to stain to match the posts on our house.

Saxony XL review

I bought this back in October and it took me 2 days to complete. Pretty straightforward instructions just keep all your fasteners separated. Definitely solicit the help from two or three friends to put the roof portion on hasn't made it very easy. I purchased corrugated galvanized Barn Roofing from the local hardware store and covered in the back which is very helpful when it snows as you can see from the pictures. Miss gazebo is well worth the price and a bargain compared to others.

Best grill gazebo ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’re so incredibly fortunate to have found the Saxony XL grill gazebo from Backyard Discovery. The finished product is simply stellar. We love the cedar and metal stylings and the Saxony XL is ample enough to accommodate our Kamado Joe smoker plus our Napoleon Phantom grill. We opted for the professional installation from Backyard Discovery, which was totally awesome. Within a few hours we were able to enjoy this new addition to our home’s entertainment area. We added shatterproof Edison bulbs to the gazebo adding a fun party vibe. Truly, we could not be more pleased. Well done Backyard Discovery. This is an A+ for us.

Obsessed! Totally elevates our backyard!

We just had it installed and I’m so happy with the quality and look. It’s absolutely gorgeous and it looks custom. It fits perfectly on our patio. Unfortunately we had an issue with the concrete bolts missing from our order but the company sent them FedEx for no charge. Super great customer service and product!

Nice product - but 1 major flaw!

I am very disappointed in regards to the front top board is three pieces. Depsite us properly torqing the bolts in a circular pattern a little at a time the board is still not perfectly straight. This is the most important board in the structure. Overall I am happy but this is a disappointment.

Great Home for Backyard Kitchen

The perfect home for my array of grills and outdoor cooking gear. I even added the brand new Argentine style grill from backyard Discovery (another great purchase). Running power was a snap and assembly was smooth and very reasonable. We customized ours with some lighting and a high-end outdoor sound system and now everybody loves hanging out there. Highly recommend
