[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect addition to our backyard. It feels very estately, large, substancial, but provides a cozy space for our yard. The gazebo is very sturdy, solid and has survived 2 snow storms and several wind storms already. We paid for assembly and it was well worth it. It took one (very strong) man 5 hours to set this up. He was definitely a pro, as I'm certain it would have taken us several days to complete.

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.

The instruction are incredible. Each step lists all items that are needed for that step. It all comes together like it should. We took our time and made it in less than three days. Enjoy the shade and being able to sit outside when it is raining.

We absolutely love our new gazebo. The cedar is sturdy and gorgeous, and the roof is really durable, which is so essential in our midwest climate. We love the power outlet feature so we can hang outdoor lights, as well as a TV! The size is perfect to fit our large outdoor sectional, with ample room to spare.

We love our 10X10 Norwood Gazebo. All of the pieces were packaged well to prevent shipping damage, and the steel roof panels were even in a protective wooden box. The five shipping boxes were clearly labeled on the outsides and the packing slips in each box showed which pieces were in the box, making it easy to find the needed pieces during assembly. All of the hardware (including extras) was packaged in clearly marked bags, and each wooden piece was clearly marked on the ends. (I suggest laying out the hardware packages on a table - out of the wind - in numerical order. And if you can't find a certain bag, look again because it's there somewhere.) Assembly instructions were excellent, and there is also a helpful animated video to help understand the assembly. Assembly takes some time because of the number of bolts and screws, but that attests to the quality and strength of the gazebo. I was able to assemble the gazebo myself except for assembling the two end pieces together (three of us, twenty minutes) and sliding the roof pieces up on top (two of us, ten minutes). The finished gazebo is very attractive, high quality, and strong. I would definitely recommend this gazebo.

The instructions are extremely well. The best I've ever seen. The quality of the wood and hardware is extremely good. This far exceeded my expectations. I did not want an unfinished wood look.So I primed and painted the wood prior to building the structure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 14x12 Norwood kit a couple of months ago and recently got a chance to put it all together. I just followed the instructions that came with the unit and it went together relatively easy. I do have some building experience so that helped. This is a beautiful, structurally sound unit. Very pleased with how it came out.

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.

We constructed this last summer. Happy to report how it has withstood some heavy wind storms. Would argue that it could be constructed by only 2 people (maybe if they were very tall). 4 workers is what worked for us. Very happy with detailed written and digital instructions. We understand it met minimum code requirements, but a little beefier construction would have been preferable. Looking forward to adding gutters and rain chain as well as light & fan fixture this summer. Thanks for a nice quality product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my gazebo for about six months and I love it!! We are always using it. It was so easy to buy, track and we paid fir it to be assembled. Highly recommend if you pay fir assembly..not only professional installed but at an excellent price.
