This is an absolutely beautiful structure, good solid build, and fairly easy to put together. My wife and I would have had it done in an afternoon if not for rain. I would recommend 3 people putting it together we did it with two but some of the structure was a bit heavy for my wife to hold in place while i was driving screws.

Everything was very easy to install, I actually did the whole thing by myself (2 people would be faster and safer, but nothing is too heavy to do alone). One piece was broken in delivery, contacting about replacement but didn’t stop me from getting the job done.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn’t be happier with my pergola! Shipping was easy, came in 3 boxes and very well packaged. Directions were easy to follow, I recommend 3 people to assemble. Took us about 3 to 4 hrs to complete, hardware included was excellent quality and cedar boards went together perfectly. I’ve added louvers to my pergola for extra shade, looks amazing. Thank you backyard discovery!

Took wife and I around 9 hours to complete. Pay attention to the pilot holes for the corbels on the posts. Fairly smooth until one already split corbel came apart and had to be glued and finish nailed back together. The 14 top purlins were warped and don't fit together well. Had to redrill a lot of pilot holes as they didn't line up. Otherwise it looks good and much sturdier than our former metal unit.

We've had this for awhile now. It's not exactly what the intended use was going to be, but we decided to go with an entertainment space (was originally doubled to use as covered carport but my SUV was too big). We are very pleased. It is well built (though the top boards could be a little sturdier). It has ample room for entertainment space and we've really enjoyed using it! It was also super easy to put together.

Shipping was surprisingly fast. (1 week from purchase to delivery) Assembly was relatively easy. I put it together myself, with a little help from my wife and son when it came to installing the main joist beams. Finished structure was a little wobbly. But I chalk this up to the lightweight, soft, wood, and the manner of design which enables the whole thing to be hand delivered to your front door. (Main joists, which are comprised of three pieces bolted together, have a little too much play.) I did a couple of simple structural additions to firm up its integrity. We also added a shade cloth attached to the underside of cross joists. We did not use the top 2x2’s (intended for shade) as most were warped. We liked the idea of the cloth more anyways. All in all, for the cost, look (and easiness of constructing), we are very pleased.

I bought the 16x12 Beaumont Pergola in June and it really completed my backyard. My bottler and 14 year old put it together in a few hours. The directions were self explanatory, which made the installation process smooth. I was worried I got the wrong size, but couldn’t be happier with my choice. My backyard gets quite a bit of sun, so the pergola provided the right amount of shade for us to relax as a family. I would highly highly recommend backyard discovery, if you’re thinking about getting a pergola. I have absolutely no regrets with my purchase.

I love everything about our new Backyard Discovery Pergola. Ordering was easy, and it was shipped right to my door. Communication with the shipping company was fast and easy. I had intended to install it myself but other things took my time so I hired the company suggested and they were very professional and did a great job. This will infancy our enjoyment of our backyard for years to come.

I love my new pergola. It's like having my oun outdoor restaurant table. When friends come over everyone wants to sit outside. It went together easily and we waterproofed it. It is the centerpiece of my backyard and ads value to my home. I recomend getting one. Fabulous!

My wife and I was looking to dress up our back porch off of our home. We saw this Pergola in a Sam's flyer. It was a nice fit. It allowed my wife to dress up our back porch and provided a wonder place to drink coffee in the morning. It did take longer to build then the manual says and it took three people but it was well worth it. We love it! And we have received many compliments not only from family and friends but even strangers who have pulled in the driveway and told us how nice our porch looks!
