Everyone loves the gazebo, but you should know the corner posts are hollow and the long sides come in 3 separate pieces bolted together. Also, the metal roof doesn't have flashing at the side trim but really should have to prevent or ice from building on your roof. Design is nice once you finally get it together!

Could not be happier with our Gazebo choice. My husband and I put it together ourselves in just over 6hrs. Quality construction with decent instructions. We receive compliments each time visitors see it, several are now looking to purchase the same product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing that struck me about this kit was the perfect packaging. It came in a series of numbered boxes and nothing was missing. All parts fit perfectly together and we love our back patio pavilion. The materials are high-quality. The BEST part of this kit was the use of the digital instructions. I make training for a living and this app is SPOT-ON!

I spent a year looking at budget options for shade in the backyard before finally deciding to splurge on the Norwood 10x12. Glad I did. Assembly was pretty straightforward, there were a couple spots where the boards were warped or the holes were a bit out of tolerance and I had to drill them a bit larger to make things line up, but that's to be expected with wood. I did most of it myself, and then recruited a few friends to help me stand it up and complete the final steps. Would recommend at least 3 helpers for standing it up and getting the roof panels on. Could be done with fewer, but more makes it much easier. Finished it with Australian Timber Oil. Looks great, nice and sturdy. The building inspector referred to it as "handsome."

Bought mine several months ago. Very pleased with the craftsmanship and detailed instructions. Had contractors put it up. Could have done it myself(but not a one man job) Looks great and with the sturdy construction, it will be around for years to come.

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.

Assembly of the two gable ends, the double rafter Center section, and side rails can be easily assembled by one person in a garage or shop setting and on a work table with space all around to complete the bolt ups of the posts and tails. The assembly instructions are quite easy to follow by most people and moving the sections to the concrete pad for tilt up and connection is possible by two people but three people is recommended for tilt up. Note: Organizing all the numbered posts, numbered rafters, rails, brackets, nuts, bolts, etc. beforehand is highly recommended to avoid errors. Assembling the wooden roof sections was also easy to install in a shop but squaring the roof panel section within the allowable tolerance was difficult, although the holes were pre-drilled. I would prefer to install the metal panels after the wood frame was in place on the roof to ensure it is squared with the erected structure. Roof Cap needs a better design. Provide more screws, nuts, bolts, etc!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely adore our new Gazebo! It has transformed our backyard into a vibrant living space. The assembly instructions were straightforward, and the accompanying app was incredibly useful. Moreover, the products used are of exceptionally high quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased the Brindlewood 10x12 gazebo for our back yard directly from Backyard Discovery. The gazebo was delivered via freight about 15 days later. The packaging was very good and the parts were very well labeled across the different boxes. We installed the unit by ourselves and found the instructions to be very easy to follow. While it was a day and a half project for two people, it was definitely a project that was attainable for the average DIY person. The gazebo is beautiful. Solid cedar and stained ina nice semi-transparent dark walnut color. I needed a few extra parts - probably because of my error, and they were very willing to ship the fasteners to me. Their customer service was fantastic dealing with them when I needed them. I priced out different DIY gazebos as well as custom built patio covers, and Backyard Discovery has the best pricing and product, hands down. Here are a few pictures of our gazebo.

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.
