Fantastic pergola look

I purchase this 16x12 Beaumont Pergola last year, I was redoing my backyard and I wanted a bit of a fancy look. The set up was quick and easy and after a few added plants, my Pergola area this year will look magical. I would recommend this product to anyone wanting a great look. Sorry no photo, we have been plummeted with so much snow this year that it wouldn't do any good taking them yet.

Love it

Much better than my expectations one of the boards and shipment got damaged customer service was so excellent to deal with they had my new part here in 2 days my only complaint is I have to put it together by myself which has no influence on the company LOL The instructions to put it together were on point all the hose lined up I would definitely purchase another one if I need it to in the future.... LOVE IT.... I've gotten so many compliments on how beautiful it is from my neighbors which it is has added value to my home

Love it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this in July and assembled it myself with my son over several weekends. we did have a few few issues like the concrete anchor, bolts snapped they appear to be made out of aluminum and should be made out of steel. Some of the pilot holes for the purlins did not lineup so we created our own pilot holes. But overall it’s wonderful. I enjoy sitting out in the evenings with shade and coffee on the weekend mornings.

assembly was the best part!

I am not one who usually writes reviews for items that I buy. But I want anyone who is thinking about this product to feel assured it will far exceed your expectations. I am thrilled with this pergola. It has added so much to our backyard. countless compliments from everyone who sees it. the quality of the wood and fasteners is top notch. . The ease of assembly is not often found in todays products. I would highly recommend this company for their customer service is very responsive and polite.

Not without issues, but the final product we love.

Started with just myself up thru STEPS 7, then two men for STEPS 8, 11, 14 thru 16, and 18. Most of the entire family joined in from this point on. Preliminary assembly and assembly-STEPS 1 thru 7, 9 thru 10, 12 thru 13, and 17 I did in my garage while waiting for HOA approval and concrete slab completion. (The good news is, there were no missing/damaged parts, save for what I considered to be minor blemishes in the surface of three different boards. Upon final assembly, there were no shortages and surplus in nearly all of the hardware parts). We chose to pre-stain everything from this point forward in the installation. 1st complaint: The sum of the various lap-joints does not produce the same thickness as the original board. Note: Depending on your selection of stains, this can be less noticeable in the final assembly. 2nd complaint: The depth of the lap-joints is often inconsistent, resulting in gaps as large as 1/8 inch. I know of no easy way to camouflage this, Note: I consider both of these complaints to be the result of a quality-control problem. If you choose to follow the Manual (Anchoring Layout pg-3, as we did), this can result in some of the Posts not standing perfectly vertical. To the critical eye, this can be annoying. Suggestion: Follow the Manual (Anchoring Layout pg-3) for a starting point, but before anchoring the base of any Post, tighten all hardware except those affecting the Post alignment. Then, make any fine-tune vertical alignments to the Posts using a carpenter’s level. (If everything has been done correctly up to this point, this should be very minimal). Lastly, anchor the Posts. Caution: I didn’t pay enough attention to the location of the pre-drilled holes in the JOIST and ended up with some of the pre-drilled holes facing down instead of up and on the outside instead of the inside (or vise-versa) of the POST. This will extend the installation time no matter how you choose to solve it. 3rd complaint: Neither of the inside POST (POST P03) were pre-drilled for the CORBEL on one side only as they should have been. Note: This I consider to be another quality-control issue. 4th complaint: Because there is no staggering of the lengths of the PURLINs, all the joints fall on a single SLOTTED-JOIST at each splice point. This leaves you with no attachment to the PURLINs to those two particular SLOTTED-JOIST leaving them less stable than the others. I chose to replace the PURLIN splicing bolt, nut, and washer in four staggered locations across the length of these tow JOIST with a 3” long - ¾” lag bolt and washer making the splice point serve as the anchor point to the JOIST in those four locations. If you are anchoring your Pergola to concrete, I discovered that dipping the concrete anchor screws in thick liquid soap such as hair shampoo before driving them will keep them from seizing up during driving. (Learned this the hard way).

Easy assembly with step by step instructions

I bought this 16x12 set and put it up very easily between my wife and I with no other help. Instructions were precise and everything lined up. Only disappointment were the cement screws they gave me in the hardware box. 3 out of the first 4 snapped off while screwing them into the predrilled holes in the concrete. I stopped immediately and drove to the hardware store and purchased Tapcon cement scres of same size. it went smoothly with the new screws. It looks awesome!

Love it!

I love this pergola! It was easy to put together as it was already precut and stained. Looks awesome next to our pool. I was nervous about if the stain would hold up during the winter, but it looks brand new. This pergola was much cheaper than buying one from Menards or Home Depot. Love it and would definitely recommend it to others!

Mostly easy to put together

I really like the way it looks. The new mods of a seat and eating bar on the opposite side have made this product even better. It doesn't provide much shade, so I put 2 x 4's in between the roof 2 x 2's and it gives us shade from the hit Texas sun. X

Nice pergola!

Light-weight cedar is easy to work with, and the kit is fairly well-made. Not a lot of warpage, and the bolts and washer stuff seemed fairly-well machined. Pungent Chinese cedar (too bad it wasn't from the U.S.). Only one short piece was split and nearly unusable. We'll see how the warranty goes....

Beautiful pergola and high quality

After reading many reviews, we decided to purchase the 12x20 Beaumont pergola for the far side of our pool area. It is the perfect addition and finishes the space beautifully serving as a separation between the pool area and backyard “fun.” The pergola is real wood and very heavy (when putting together). My husband and I (ages 52 and 46) did it together with help from our 17 year old son when lifting. It took us some time (a full Saturday), but that included organizing the pieces before starting. We also worked slowly as I wanted to be sure we were doing it correctly to eliminate the need to undo and redo something - which would be a lot of work. We chose to paint our pergola (Turkish Coffee by Sherman Williams) to match our Tudor home as the natural stain the wood comes in was too light for our surrounding decor. We also strung lights and added curtains for comfort. This space is a favorite - even amongst the teenagers! We only put our pergola up a few weeks ago, but it’s heavy, solid and obviously high quality. I would highly recommend this particular pergola (12x20 Beaumont). Side note, the delivery was easy and the product arrived sooner than we expected. It comes in 4 large (heavy) boxes.
