We bought this pergola a year ago and love it. We actually bought two of them and they were very easy to connect into one giant pergola with just a few extra leftover pieces. It is very sturdy and has held up well through a Midwest winter and rainy spring. We installed our own shade sails under the pergola for added shade and it is great. Highly recommend this product. It was not difficult to put together, instructions were clear and easy to follow. My husband and I put up two pergolas slowly over 2-3 weekends, but you could do it all in one weekend if you wanted to.

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!

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!

I wish I had looked into getting one of these sooner. I debated on whether to pay for assembly or not and went without, and it was not hard for my husband and I to assemble it ourselves. Now we and our whole family spend a lot of time out there. We do game nights, meals, hanging out. I was a bit worried about it during some storms but it wasn’t impacted at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this Pergola a few months ago and we love it. Delivery was great! Assembly was fairly easy with 3 of us (took about 5 hours). We did not use the top layer of wood because we used polycarbonate roofing panels to provide protection during the rain. We also added outdoor curtains from Amazon to provide an additional touch. The pergola feels like it's great material. Overall we very happy with the product. Thanks!

We bought this a couple months ago and finally had good enough weather to build it. I loved the cedar smell that filled our garage! It came in 4 boxes. We stained all the pieces before assembly in our 2 1/2 car garage. We were able to lay all the pieces out on saw horses and the staining process took 3 days to get all pieces stained. The instructions were easy to follow and it took my husband and I two days to assemble without any help. They recommend 3-4 people to help and that's a great idea but if you can't get the help 2 can put it up. You just have to be able to work together!! We weren't sure if we were going to put the small top pieces on but we're glad we did and we love it. Good quality. We were very impresed with the whole process. From ordering to sitting under our new pergola... we love it! I would definitely recommend this product and company. We have no complaints at all.

I bought this a month ago and am pretty happy with the product. Instructions were good, but with warped wood for some pieces, the hardware was barely connecting. We found it easier to assemble the frame upside down, and it would have been better to assemble right next to the final location due to the weight.

We were looking for something to put over the top of our water garden. This worked perfect. It still lets the sunlight through but at the same time provides the shaded that is needed. Looks Fabulous in the back yard with the water garden. Wife is very happy!!!!!!

I left a 1 star review a couple weeks ago because after a month and a half, I hadn't received my pergola. After weeks of being told 'tomorrow' by the shipping company, I went and picked it up myself. The pergola is beautiful and the cedar smells wonderful. It took me about 6 hours to assemble everything except the 1x's on the top. Is give this a 5 if it wasn't for the shipping fiasco.

[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.
