Norwood Gazebo 14 x 12 Review

Quality of wood and hardware is very good...no chipped discolored wood and location of pre-drilled holes is accurate. Instructions are better than most others and have detailed steps and pictograms of assembly with ballooned enlargements for clarity. Wood and hardware are all marked and accurate...pre-assembly is critical to success - group all like wood parts and organize hardware by number and your assembly will be efficient.

Beautiful features really makes our backyard patio

My husband just built our new gazebo. We love it we had a massive rain last night and the furniture basically stay dry even know there was a lot of wind. The intricate design of this gazebo is amazing. He pretty much built it himself except for needing help with putting the roof up. We are thrilled with our new gazebo.

Beautiful Gazebo

Very well made and sturdy. Well worth the money. Follow the instructions and you'll have it built in a day. Takes two to put together, but need minimal 3 to put roof up. Make sure you secure one of the roof panels, before putting up the second one. I didn't do this and it slid off. Was able to repair and paint, but was not happy. It was my fault, because I did not follow instructions and put screws in to secure it before putting second roof panel. You don't have to climb on top of the roof. Saw it on a video and was worried, but you don't have to. The most time consuming part of install was the amount of hardware.

Easy to follow build progression. The sorting of the hardware and box opening sequencing would be helpful.

I added 4 feet to the carport height to house my 18 foot travel trailer. I inserted 3.5” x 3.5” x 2’ posts into each 7’ post. I then sandwiched (2) 6” x 1.25” x 4’ cedar boards & (2) 3.5” X 1.25” to the center posts. I then attached the provided baseplates to the new extension posts. The build from that point was normal.

Norwood 20x12

We got this at the beginning of June 2023. It’s beautiful my husband and I put it together ourselves once we found instructions in box 3 LOL it wasn’t that difficult it took us like 4-5 days were 64 and 70 years old but in good shape our oldest son came to help with the roof panels there not real heavy just kinda awkward for the 2 of us but it’s done and looks amazing only real issue we had was a little roof leaks screws just needed to be tightened down more my husband was worried about ripping the rubber washer if he did them to tight but once he tightened them more all up no more drips .instructions for overlapping roof ribs kinda hard to understand . On page 44 measuring from the rib not the edge hard to understand . We opened all boxes first and layed everything out according to part numbers it made thing way easier to find . We’ve had several parties under it already everyone LOVES IT !

Backyard gazebo build.

You have to really pay attention to the detailed instructions. If you follow the directions you will not have any problems. The 2 different size washers for each bolt was painful at times but you have to follow the directions. I’m 65 years old and built this over 2 weekends at my own pace. I found the use of a ratchet strap helpful in keeping the roof panels square and did not screw the cross pieces for the roof panels until I had the framework square. I also used the ratchet strap to help pull the outside rafters in which helped with the final roof bolts alignment. This gazebo is of great quality and very sturdy. I recommend this to anyone who is handy and follows directions carefully. You truly can’t deviate from the directions.

Nice product at a great price!

I’ll keep it simple: after buying and returning a cheaper product from a local big box store, the quality surprised me. Excellent! There was one miscut piece in the boxes and it was Fedexed to me the same day I called. The city inspector was very complimentary about the quality of the final product. We love the new area and feeling it created in our yard. Love it!

Really nice, quality feel, and very sturdy!

Purchased Dec 2022. It took three days to assemble, however we probably could have finished in two if we didn't chit chat and take a ton of breaks. Assembly went smooth and the paper instructions where put together very well. There is a 3D app that can be downloaded that also helps walk you through assembly. We referenced the app a couple times when we couldn't quite see something right in the paper instructions. Very pleased with the quality and sturdyness. Highly recommend. Would definitely.purchase again, and have been thinking about getting a size smaller for another area of the backyard.

Overall great gazebo

I bought this a few weeks ago and it’s one of the nicest units in its price range. I love the fact that it’s appearance is sturdy. My only issues are that they use a water based stain that must be sealed to comply with the warranty. Also the fact that the instructions require the screws to not extend past the end of the hole in the wood, the screws supplied if they were just a bit longer to meet with the edge of the hole approximately (1/4” / 6mm) would significantly decrease the installation issues. Other then that I’m extremely happy with the gazebo.

Great Addition

This is a great addition to our backyard. It gives us plenty of shade in the SC heat. The interior allows for a host of add ons for your liking such as mounting a TV, adding shelves, or adding hanging decorative lighting. I wish I knew the exact brand and stain color for the gazebo in order to prepare to restain when necessary in the future. This project will take a minimum of two people to complete by the way. I had another friend help me, but we are construction savvy. We have also purchased the grill cover style gazebo. I suggest it as well to match this gazebo!
