Quality and service

I was very impressed with the quality of the Brindlewoood Gazebo , assembled by my self with some help from my wife , quality is really high, and if I had any questions, the service was absolutely fantastic, needed additional support, got it, very professional company to deal with, highly recommended. You just can’t find service like that anywhere anymore. Thanks

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.

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.

Outstanding!

Outstanding gazebo. This was truly a professional kit. The cedar lumber, hardware, fasteners, directions, etc., were all top notch. I love the quality and the look. Now I don't have to worry about the wind blowing this gazebo down, nor the snow caving the roof in. The unit was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. Myself and my family love it. Our expectations were exceeded! Thank you.

Just what we wanted.

We just assembled our 16x12 Norwood and couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Assembly took about a day and a half for 2 guys. The only real issues we had were when we didn’t understand what the instructions wanted us to do and did things the wrong way ( following the instructions is critical with anything to do with the roof panels). If we were to do another one it would go much smoother. The wood all looks great, the hardware is substantially made, all the parts were in the kit, and everything fit like it was supposed to.

Great Gazebo excellent product

I purchased this for our vacation lot in Wyoming, what I really liked is the craftsman ship of the material and they rate their gazebo to specification that exceed Wyoming winter weather. Instructions are easy to follow, written very well and the mobile app helps with any questions on on assembly by giving you a 3D visual.

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.

Outstanding carport

I bought the Carport/Gazebo to park my new full sized pickup truck under out of the weather. This past summer was over 100 degrees, this winter started out cold and heavy rain and windy, the carport is holding up well. I’m unable to build the carport by myself, I had a contractor who had built my deck a few years ago do the job, ( So glad I did ) He and his guy leveled out where the footing go, made the framing, poured the concrete. Then they started the construction process, it took about 5 days. I’m very happy with the outcome.

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.

I gave a 4 star because of missing screaws /warp

Hi everyone buying the Brindlewood. We just put 12x10 Gazebo together. 1 This was a very time consuming process forsure with 2 of us being in construction for many years lets say. 2nd instruction were not so easy but we got through it . 3rd make sure you separate wood and also put some clear coat on all wood. (Wood is very soft too) 4th make sure you have everything i was missing some screws so i had to run to hardware store HD/lowes. NOW what we found out was some of board were not stright and we found out this whe putting together and when you go to put bolts through you need a drill forsure. So i love the way it look but i would check everything before you build one yourself agin not bad and not easy but 2 people can do it . Also we found put roof on last was easer then putting it on on the ground and 2 of us lefting it up. Anyway
