I have zero complaints, love the final product. No missing pieces, and instructions were easy to follow. You do have to be somewhat handy to put it all together, and if you dont square it up the roof panels will not go on right. That was the only thing with the set up i would warn people about. And it 100% is not a one person job.

When we moved in, we just had a basic 10x12ft patio slab. We immediately knew we needed a covered area to enjoy our backyard. This gazebo was the perfect solution! We love it and sit out back often! We strung lights and they look great. We love that the gazebo has the power option! It has really upgraded our home! We did have issues with the assembly option we purchased through Sam’s Club and ultimately had to find our own assembly company. It took two guys about 8 hours to complete.

We’ve had this gazebo installed for a year. Stained every board before installation. Put it together by myself except for installing the roof panels. The instructions were very easy to follow. Sitting here, by the lake, with the soft rain sprinkles making music on the roof is just about the best thing I can imagine. I’d recommend this gazebo to anyone anywhere.

I am extremely happy with my new carport. It works perfectly for me and I keep my Ford F150 in it. We live in the Sierra’s and have to deal with snow. This carport is superb in these conditions. I was originally going to have an attached carport built. This was a much better and more economical solution.

I was hesitant on going with Backyard discovery, you never know how these patio covers are going to look. I looked at some pictures of other patio covers and decided to go with backyard discovery, and I’m so glad we did! It really completes our backyard. And we didn’t only just buy one, we bought two!!! Also bought both for under $10,000, when we got estimates for a vinyl patio for one it was going to be around $20-30,000.

Given the global logistics issues, it is understandable that this China-made product will be delayed. But the delivery issues were "last mile" with the US-based group. Once we got it, though, we were very pleased. The materials are good quality, instructions are sufficient and parts labels are very helpful. It does take a few strong people and at least 10 hours to assemble, so be prepared. The product support, including an app, seem like an advantage, too. We hope to enjoy this for a while.

Tired of DIY gazebos that will not hold up to the Nevada desert winds? Time for a real gazebo! The Norwood is the mother-of-all-gazebos and will stand strong, through wind, rain, snow, and whatever else nature throws at it. Pro tip: Treat yourself to the "installation included" option and save your marriage and friendships. After all, you'll want those same people in your gazebo!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our big project this summer was to add a swim spa to our back patio. As we live on a heavily wooded lot, we decided to purchase a gazebo to erect over the pool in order to afford it some protection from falling branches, leaves, etc. After much research, we chose Backyard Discovery's 12'x16" Norwood. We settled on this company due to their consistently positive reviews, high quality & attractive designs. Our gazebo was delievered quickly & complete. Instructions were straightforward & easy to understand, with everything clearly labeled. This may sound like a small detail, but on a large project like this it makes a big difference: Drilled holes were where they were supposed to be & bolts aligned as projected, making assembly as stress-free as possible. Our gazebo is now a beautiful, functional addition to our backyard. We have been delighted with every aspect of our purchase. From choice, to deivery, assembly to contributing to the aesthetic of our home, we couldn't possibly be more happy with our Backyard Discovery gazebo.

I bought this a few weeks ago and it’s one of the nicest units in its price range. I love the fact that it’s appearance is sturdy. My only issues are that they use a water based stain that must be sealed to comply with the warranty. Also the fact that the instructions require the screws to not extend past the end of the hole in the wood, the screws supplied if they were just a bit longer to meet with the edge of the hole approximately (1/4” / 6mm) would significantly decrease the installation issues. Other then that I’m extremely happy with the gazebo.

I was debating for a few weeks to purchase this carport and was worried about the quality of material. I decided to pull the trigger and am very pleased with the Norwood Carport/Gazebo. We have set up an outdoor dining area in our backyard and it provides adequate shade during the hot summer months. 5-stars!
