Took 2 people about 7 hours to assemble. Very easy to follow instructions on paper came with the unit, but the BILT app was handy for zooming in on a couple areas. Assembled the entire thing inside a 23x14 area space. Will be adding a clear coat to protect the wood so it always keeps its beautiful cedar colour. This really added so much to the yard. Very happy with the purchase. Ordered from the manufacturer and it came in just a few days. Worth the money!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It all started because I needed a place to mount some solar panels. Skipping ahead (past a flimsy aluminum pergola that failed in the strong winds), I came across a 12X16 cedar pergola kit that seemed too good to be true. It wasn't! So after spreading out all the fragrant cedar pieces under my carport, I set about learning how to pour cement piers so I could transform an unused portion of my backyard into a relaxing home vacation spot. The instruction book was concise and easy to follow. All of the hardware was included, even with a few spares. The wood pieces were all cut perfectly. Only a couple of the top boards were warped, but by carefully tightening their bolts all the warp disappeared. I could have easily called for replacements, but didn't need to. When I first looked at all the parts and my untidy dirt area, I was skeptical. But carefully going through the instructions I was able to build this beautiful wooden pergola for which I constantly get compliments. As you can see, I have not even built a deck or poured a slab yet, but it is already being enjoyed. Oh yes, and those 4 heavy 400 watt solar panels that started it all now rest neatly on top, providing shade and free power. It's the good life!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a great and easy pergola kit. Comes in 4 boxes, easy to assemble, easy to follow directions, plus 3d directions via app on phone. Drill and attached to concrete was easy and straight forward. Majority completed with 1 person. Only need a 2nd person when standing up pergola and placing trusses. Definitely recommend!

The pergola is well thought through in terms of its design. Each part is marked, the hardware comes in labeled bags. The accompanying BILT program makes it very easy to visualize. One improvement would be a diagram showing the exact center locations of the four posts.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I unboxed my pergola I was impressed but the quality of all the materials. The instructions were easy to follow. All the wood and hardware parts were present. I was able to construct it all in less than 8 hours. I live a an area of high winds and the pergola is very strong and stable. I built the pergola on a Trex deck and we are very pleased with how good it all looks. I would highly recommend this pergola to anyone looking to shade and frame your deck or patio.

I purchased and installed Beaumont Cedar Pergola on my backyard deck. The pergola has added a whole new dimension to the deck and its usefulness. The cedar wood was high quality and smells great. The instructions were straight forward and pergola pieces marked which really helped during installation. Thanks for putting together a great product and a price that's very affordable. Check out my new beautiful pergola!

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.

This pergola was exactly what we were looking for without the hassle of a DIY. We went with the 20' by 12' and the pictures prove it all. Instructions were easy to follow. It took my husband a total of almost two days on and off throughout the week. He did it on his own. We are happy so far.

We purchased this in June. We had to wait to install once the concrete patio was completed. It took about 6 hours to install completely and we were completely impressed with the construction. All of the components necessary were included. It turned out to be much stronger than I expected. Originally I was going to build one from scratch but after pricing Cedar components and figuring out all of the hardware required we decided to order from you. So glad we did.

I love the idea of this kit for the DIY’er. It’s like a huge Lincoln Log set. I haven’t ha stud opportunity to actually put it together yet. The transport company ruined a bunch of wood pieces and I’m waiting for the replacements to arrive. This company has excellent customer service and immediately addresses issues with a friendly and understanding representative. They are a model for other businesses. Although I wish my experience was much smoother, you can’t get upset when you are treated so kindly. Awesome!
