Outdoor Cooking Area

I purchased my Backyard Discovery Saxony XL grill gazebo to for our outdoor grill station. All of our parts were in great condition and install was pretty straightforward. It's great having a place to cook and serve hot off the griddle or smoker . Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Easier to put together than thought

Easier than I thought! Unfortunately, The cement patio wasnt big enough to accomadate the Pergola however, I had a professional make adjustments with the supplied materials. Took about 6 hours to complete and looks fantastic! On The day of installation, The temperature was 96° with the ," feels like" temperature around 104° with the humidity. But under the roof of the Pergalo, The temperature was 90° F AND the feels like temperature was 92° F. Needless to say, I'm very satisfied with the Pergalo.

Perfect! Just what I was looking for

I recently purchased the 14x12 Arcadia Gazebo and couldn't be happier—it's not only beautiful but incredibly sturdy and well-built. At 67, I assembled it myself with just a couple of simple braces I made, which speaks to how user-friendly it is. I was so impressed that I bought the 12x9.5 Arcadia to expand my patio setup. For anyone in the Midwest, especially Ohio, this is the perfect solution. The wind rating and snow load are exactly what we need for our harsh winters. I compared it to the options at my local big box stores, but they couldn't match the strength and specifications required for our climate. Backyard Discovery delivered exactly what I needed—highly recommend!

Getting scammed on assembly

Purchased this on sale for $900 off the gazebo. Purchased with the assembly. Gazebo arrived, however no contact from the assembler. Spent several hours on the phone with Sam's Club trying to find an assembler. After no success even after they supposedly reached out to vendor we requested a refund for assembly of $1220. We were told we would get it in 5 - 7 business days. Followed up after 8 business days and no refund. Sam's Club says the discount was on the installation and only wanted to offer $300 back. The item is fine but Sam's Club and Vendor will rip you off on the assembly. Find somewhere to get it.

Great look, rugged hardware and very functional!

I bought and assembled my grill gazebo earlier this month. The kit was very well packed and came with all the necessary hardware including some extras! The directions were fairly easy to follow but you need to pay attention to the details in the pictures. I found it easier to build the roof structure and mount it before installing the roof panels. It was much lighter to lift with two people. Once installed, we added the roof panels one by one using two ladders. The gazebo looks great and is very functional. I have both my pellet grill/smoker and BBQ side by side under the gazebo!!

Assembly tough but end product is worth it

Just finished assembling this and we love it. I will be honest, the assembly is tough and there are a lot of pieces. It took a couple of days to stain/waterproof the wood - make sure to look inside the main posts as there are quite a few smaller pieces tucked in there. Once you are ready to assemble, ask some friends over. We tried this with just the two of us and it is NOT recommended. We are using this as a carport and it is so much sturdier and attractive than the metals ones we purchased in the past. If we wanted to use it as a gazebo later on, simply move out the vehicles. I dare the Nebraska winds to knock this down!!

Fast, Cost Effective and Well Constructed

This kit was excellent. Extra fasteners in case you lost one on the ground while building was a plus. Super easy installation booklet. The app was clunky and too time consuming to use. Love the protection for my car and we will use it for outdoor gatherings as well. I will paint it to match the rest of my house posts soon.

Very pleased!

Assembly was at least a 3 person job over the course of a couple days. Helpful to put up temporary supports during connecting the walls together. We got the gutter and mosquito net also. This has been a wonderful addition to help shade our sunny concrete patio. Now we get to enjoy! The only issue we had was with the mosquito netting. They give 3/4” screws to attach the track which are too short to get aligned even with a longer bit. Highly recommend a magnetic bit or little fingers to get those rails up. It was by far the most fiddly part of the job.

Could have been great but no service and support

First they delivered it to our front driveway and did not let us know they were there. They blocked our car in the garage and we had to completely unload the boxes because they are too heavy for two people to move. The instructions are mostly pictures with little explanation and do not tell you what order to put some peices together. We discovered we were missing 2 pieces and when we contacted Backyard they said they would ship it out the next business day. 3 days later and it still has not shipped. We wanted to finish it over Memorial weekend but that didnt work because of missing parts. Also you will need at least 3 people to lift the roof up. 4 would be better. Finally I installed our gazebo on a patio that is sloped to drain water as most are. It would be nice if you could purchase extra plastic feet to allow the the gazebo to to be level. I had to fab a 1-1/2 inch cedar extension.

Beautiful Addition to the House

Just absolutely loved the entire experience with this carport. I knew it was going to be a challenge because of the grade where I wanted to place it. There is a good 15" drop from one corner to the opposite corner. Since the posts are hollow I decided to modify the bottoms. I first dug the required holes and filled them with concrete. Then I accurately measured the drop from the highest point to all the other post slabs. I then used 4x4 and 2x8 pressure treated wood to build inserts. I added 5" to all the posts so that the post on the highest point would have a "matching" base. The top of the black paint on the posts are now all level. My approach to this install was when I inventoried everything I stacked all the parts in reverse order from the instructions. I then built all the joists and reverse stacked them in the order that the instructions called for them. Day of the install went so very easy. Literally less than a day to assemble the posts, joists, roof, and anchors. Finished product is so much more than I expected. We love this carport!!
