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.

Just completed my Norwood 12x10 Gazebo. I was very impressed with the engineering. Took some time but went together nicely. Not one missing item. The notching, drilling and cuts are super accurate. The instruction manual is nicely drawn and very detailed. It was a fun project and looks great!

[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.

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 searched and searched Sam's to get this. My husband was tracking it with an app to know immediately when it came back into stock. It is absolutely gorgeous once assembled. However, unless the 2 people building it are Thor and the Incredible Hulk, you will need more than 2 people. We used 4 at times to get it upright.

[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.

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!

Bought this kit to replace an old metal frame rusted out pergola, was love at first sight when I saw timber frame inspired pictures. Build it slowly with help from my two sons, so proud to say I build the roof grid all by myself, a 66 year old lady. I also stained it with Cabot's Heartwood sealer which is the most beautiful color. We were so worried about getting the roof up there in the limited space but it just went up perfectly on the first attempts. Then I took it the rest of the way to perfect- added rain gutters, sun curtains, ceiling fan, Alexa and over 500 fairy lights and Edison bulbs. Could not be happier with the finished product, it was been a really great summer project. Thank you, Backyard Discovery!

I added 4 feet to the carport height to house my 18 foot travel trailer. I inserted 3.5” x 3.5” x 2’ posts into each 7’ post. I then sandwiched (2) 6” x 1.25” x 4’ cedar boards & (2) 3.5” X 1.25” to the center posts. I then attached the provided baseplates to the new extension posts. The build from that point was normal.

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.
