[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Final product looks great. I purchased WITH installation but due to a hiccup in scheduling I chose to get a refund and tackle it ourselves. It did take us more hours than described, and more men to get the assembled roof on. Missing 1 screw and had to use several online assembly videos. Recently no problem holding up to 8” of snow.

Purchased this carport for our second home and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. The instructions were easy to follow and the quality of the parts are Grade A. The electrical outlets are a wonderful addition to add lights to the gazebo. So happy we purchased this!!!

I bought my Brindlewood Gazebo almost 2 years ago and I just have to say it has just made wonders in my backyard and has really Enhanced Is the features on my backyar This casino took 2 of us to put together and took about eight hours. Where I find the most about this ultimate gazebo is that it makes great shade and had held up to the to strong 50 mile winds and the rain and still looks new after almost 2 years and still standing strong . And that's why it's the ultimate Gazebo.

My husband got me this as a birthday gift a year ago. It’s been a delightful addition to our back patio and we have enjoyed it daily. It provides a wonderful shady spot for our outdoor table and chairs set. Assembly did take quite a few hours but the directions were clear.

We purchased this gazebo from a big box store and built it ourselves. The final product is great, we have really been enjoying it! 4/5 stars because some of the instructions could have been more clear, and some of the parts in the kit were missing or incorrect. Backyard Discovery was great in that they shipped us new and correct parts, no questions asked.

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.

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!!

My husband and I bought the gazebo for cover over our patio area by our swimming pool. To be honest I was hesitant at first because it was a “kit” but it was easy to follow directions and put together. It is also very sturdy and solid. It’s a beautiful addition to our backyard area!

I'm so glad I purchased this carport. Originally, we were going to build on an additional garage, but after getting quotes on a project that size, we started looking at other options. Settled on the Norwood Carport by Backyard Discovery and man I'm glad we went this route. I'm 63 and somewhat handy with building things, so I put it together myself. Obviously, doing it by myself posed a few challenges, but all in all it was a breeze. Very simple install. The step by step directions (included) were great, and the labeling of the pieces was perfect. Total install took me about 2 weeks to complete, but that included some special concrete footings which I poured myself since I was installing it on a slight grade (and it was winter) On a flat space this would be super easy. I was amazed how well engineered this structure is. This thing is awesome. The only assistance I needed was to set the roof panels on. I had the panels ready, so with 4 people, we were able to set the roof panels into place in about 1 hour. Once those were on and in place, I was able to secure them by myself. Making sure all was square and plumb; those roof panels went on very smooth. In hindsight, the only thing I should have done differently; I should have stained all wood prior to install. Also, since it was on a grade, I added (taller) customized 6" x 6" cedar posts to accommodate the grade. I plan to use the extra four 6"x6" cedar posts that came with the unit as fence and gate posts on the backside of the carport. I will add pics later.

Very durable product. Very nice looking. Paid extra to have put together because I didn't want the hassle of assembly! Item will be delivered in 5 separate (heavy) boxes, so be aware of where you are going to store those before they arrive. Company who assembled product did a good job. Only 2 minor dings on cedar posts that the installer ordered stain for.
