Instructions were fairly easy to follow, installation was easy with the help of a few people and looks great put together. The impressive part is that since it was installed we've had two storms with at least 50 mph winds and one storm with 70 mph winds and the structure is intact and didn't move a bit. I had reinforced the roof a bit when installing and used some bigger anchors when connecting to the concrete but am impressed that this structure held up to the storms we've had.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this gazebo for my backyard project and it really looks amazing. Instructions provided are very detailed, easy to follow and the option of downloading an app in your phone or computer for visual instructions is really helpful. It allows you to zoom, rotate and basically see every step of the construction from different angles. For sure you will need help from another person to complete some of the assembly steps and maybe a third person when you get to the roof installation. Having all the parts very well identified and with all holes pre-drilled facilitate the work a lot. After completed, I added lights, a fan and a roller shade. Overall I am very happy with it and would recommend 100%. Attached some photos for your reference.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this gazebo for my backyard and it’s a beautiful addition to my landscaping. The gazebo is well built and the package included everything that was needed to put it together along with detailed instructions. The contractor that installed it for me was so impressed with the product that he recommended it to several of his customers.

The color of the gazebo is perfect with my new deck! I bought it before the deck was finished based on the photographs and it worked out perfectly. Love the A-frame design and the power access as well. Assembly was a bit intimidating but the instructions were clear and it turned out great! Looking forward to many a summers night (and day) enjoying this beautiful gazebo!

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.

We purchased this Norwood 16’ x 12’ gazebo a year ago after discovering we needed some shelter and shade to enjoy our outdoor patio furniture and fire pit. Assembly was not hard but was a little tedious and required a good deal of time as I still work full-time. That said, the instructions were very good, and my wife and I did most of the work. A good friend helped me with the roof and my excellent neighbors helped with the "heavy lift" portion of the build. Once completed, we absolutely loved it! We were spending so much time in it, that I decided to add lights, a ceiling fan, a propane heater, and a television! The television was a little tricky as I needed to protect it from the weather and the ends of the gazebo are basically open. I installed a 4’ x 8’ sheet of ultraviolet-resistant plexiglass in a secure wooden frame and a flip down motorized TV mount. I also added a mesh network satellite to improve streaming and download times. The electrical box supplies enough power and amperage to run all the electrical devices and the drop-down ledge is perfect for charging mobile phones. The entire structure is bolted into the concrete deck and the wood tones matched our patio furniture nicely. We thoroughly enjoy evenings and weekends outdoors watching sunsets, the night sky, and three dachshunds playing in the yard. I cannot recommend this product enough and I am completely satisfied with the purchase. The dachshunds love it, too!

We added a paver system to the back yard, and felt it needed some coverage from weather (rain/sun) so we could enjoy it as often as possible. After looking around at many options, came across this beauty. Fortunately for me, the crew doing the work on the patio agreed to assemble it. They didn't seem to have any issues with the instructions, and got it up in 2 days, while working on the other aspects of the project. The built-in outlet was one of the deciding factors in our decision, as it will keep us from having cords across the ground (required an electrician to run the lines from the house). All our neighbors who have seen it have complimented us on how it turned out. Very happy with our purchase.

What a beautiful product! The wife and I had long talked about having a custom gazebo built to kick off our backyard beautification projects. We eventually considered a Backyard Discovery kit because of its apparent ease. I’m glad we went with Backyard Discovery! The wood and metal hardware all appear to be of excellent quality. I can’t attest to the ease of the assembly because we hired a crew to put it together. However, it did take a small crew of 3 men nearly all day to finish. the finished product is fantastic! The family loves it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had this put up in our backyard and love it, very sturdy and has great features like the black powder coating on all the metal on cider wood. This looks great and we get compliments all the time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have thoroughly enjoyed this gazebo for the last few months. Looks great on my patio. My dealing with customer service after purchase was excellent. Look forward to enjoying my gazebo for years to come!
