So far so good!

The installation is a task!. But don’t be scared. Have a few friends ready to help. Especially when you get ready to lift the roof panels. Pay attention to the instructions and the positions of the wood/ bolts. Overall, fairly simple to install with common knowledge of building things. Beautiful outcome.

Excellent purchase

This is an excellent gazebo. The quality is great, and instructions were easy to follow. We coated the wood with a sealant as recommended. The gable ends require two people at least to set up. A third helper would've been nice, but my wife and I got the job done. Overall, we couldn't be more pleased with the product.

Great solution for any backyard

I had the open area where we wanted to build some type of pergola solution. I really didn’t want something that would be attached to the house since our home is historic 140 year old farm house. So found this 16x12 pergola, I didn’t want to spend a bunch of money hiring a crew so I built it myself using a material lift. Instructions were easy to follow and I felt like the structure was well thought out, it’s elegant enough where it doesn’t feel like a do it your self Pergola. I’m considering buying smaller version for an outdoor grilling kitchen. I highly recommend this product it shipped quick and easy.

Almost 5-star!

We finally finished up putting together our 12X14 Gazebo and we love it! My husband and I are in construction so we understand how things work. The instructions were really amazing, and we downloaded the 3-d instructions just to see if they were helpful. We followed every single step to a T and still ended up with one little confusing part when it came to the roof rafter. Somehow, following the instructions, we missed something because the nut locks didn't line up, so we drilled our own holes and made it work. Also somehow we were short one H06, so we used the H08 (support board) and cut it to fit. Otherwise, just the 2 of us did almost all of it. We recruited 2 neighbors when it came time to lift the roof panels up. It is beautiful and we are so glad we did it!

Stunning gazebo. Time consuming assembly

I think it should be said that this build will take considerable time for anyone who has not built one of these before. The amount fasteners and pieces in the kit is pretty daunting at first. 3 people is probably the right number for efficient assembly. I did it with 2 and some of it just myself. point of note I also raised mine 12" on pilings which added some complexity to the assembly.

Gorgeous...and HUGE

It is a beautiful addition to our large backyard and even though the description is accurate, I didn't realize how huge it would actually be in the space. My only criticism is that the instructions say it is a two-person build and "a third person would be helpful to install the roof." This is a huge understatement. We had four adults and it still took us 8 hours. The roof was especially precarious and we ended up purchasing an additional 6 hurricane clips to ensure safety. Do not attempt with only two people! I love it so much and cannot wait to add lights and a sound system. A couple pieces came slightly damaged, but not enough that we wanted to wait for replacement parts to assemble. Also, MOST of the pre-drilled holes aligned perfectly, but a few did not and required some creativity and muscle to make them work. When all was said and done, only the middle hole in the center of the roof and one hole a the end of the roof didn't align. It still feels quite sturdy. The video tutorial was helpful, but not perfect; pay attention to the angles of the brackets and try to keep pieces organized--the bags/boxes are labeled with the piece name/number, but not the individual pieces.

Love my backyard discovery!!

I bought my last Backyard Discovery gazebo a couple of years ago. We loved it so much that we just purchased another one for my deck. It has been a game changer… So beautiful, no longer have to worry about changing those annoying tarps. It is beautiful to look at, and it is the perfect size for my deck. We had it put together, from the beginning when they contacted me, to setting up the appointment, to the team arriving to put it together… Best experience ever!! cannot be happier with our Backyard Discovery gazebos!!

Great ..I need the gazebo built; no crew here now.

The gazebo looks great out of the box. Good match for my greenhouse. Wish I had waited a month to get the sale price now. I did not opt for the assembly option. Can I do it after the fact? Everything is unpacked , stained, sealed and hardware labeled. Site is cleared and ready for build. Do I have any options for help that I now need?

Great Gazebo

We purchased this gazebo less than a month ago and are thrilled with the product! It was a bit daunting when it first arrived, but following directions and videos it went up quickly and we love it!

Love it!

The gazebo was just what we wanted! It did require us to be organized in order for us to assemble it, plus we had 4 people to do the work. We assembled it in about 3 days. Looks great!
