Beautiful wood and design!

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.

Cozy Outdoor Retreat

This gazebo was the perfect addition to our backyard. It is sturdy and very well made. The instructions and BILT app were easy to follow and our family of 5 put it together over a weekend. We ended up staining our deck the same color as the Norwood Gazebo because the wood accents the black hardware so well. We couldn't be happier with our outdoor grilling and gathering spot. Highly recommend!

We love our 12’ x 10’ Brindlewood Gazebo. The instructions were easy to understand and I was able to assemble most of it myself. I had a couple of friends to help raise the roof. We love making breakfast, grilling lunch and unwinding with cocktails in the evening. We can use it year round and in any weather. Would highly recommend this.

Beautiful and solid

We just got our 12x20 and are almost done with the assembly. The booklet and the app provide very clear instructions on putting it together. That is incredibly helpful. My husband and I have mostly done the work but because it’s springtime, the weather has been our obstacle. We love it so much already that we purchased the grillzebo to match. My son graduates high school in May and we are looking forward to celebrating with him on the new patio with friends and family. We will finally have an outdoor space we have looked forward to for years.

Beautiful addition to our patio

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We couldn’t be happier with this product. It’s gorgeous and provides shade for our patio that is in the sun all day, returning it to the shady, relaxing spot it was before we lost our shade tree. We added strings of lights that allow us to enjoy the space beyond dusk as well. We paid for installation and it was so worth it. The team finished in one day what likely would have taken us 3 if we had lots of help.

In general, the 12 x 20 Gazebo has expanded our outdoor living experience. We love the quality of the product and the engineering specifications for wind and snow loads which address common issues in our area.

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!!

Sturdy and looks great

This unit is well made and sturdy, but be forewarned. There are hundreds of pieces and hundreds of screws and bolt. It is not hard to put together if follow the directions and try to look ahead to see what it is that you are doing. I did 95% of it by myself, but I had plenty of time to do. If you have access to help take it. Things will go alot smoother. There were no missing parts. However one sheating board was cut wrong and I had to recut the lap and drill new holes, no big deal. Overall I'm very pleased with unit.

Perfect Backyard Getaway !!!

Purchased online and was delivered on time at the end of the driveway due to COVID restrictions. Sorted and assembled with 4 adults in about 7 hours. Highly recommend having one person on the instructions. Had a few problems towards the end getting things to line up, but with a little effort went together nicely. Definitely recommend and am thoroughly enjoying my new "room" addition.

Good price

The gazebo turned out pretty good. Not to bad to build. My only complaint would be the wood. I thought I was getting cedar. Turns out it is Chinese cedar. It's not really cedar, but part of the cypress family. It has the same general qualities of cedar, rot resistance, keeps insects away. The wood on my gazebo is stained from the factory. The wood splits really easy and exposes the white wood underneath. Some of the bolts and fasteners broke or stripped pretty easy, but they do have a few extras in the bags. Overall it's solid and will keep the rain and sun off of us when needed.

Greatly Exceeded Expectations

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!
