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!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought our gazebo in April 2023 and it has been the best addition to our yard. It gives us much needed shade and is a great entertaining space. The wood is beautiful and has stood up to some crazy summer storms already. Assembly was very easy! I built most parts myself and my husband helped with the heavy lifting and putting the assembled pieces together. We added curtains, lights and a TV and have a whole outdoor space that we use most of the year. If we ever move, I’d buy another Backyard Discovery gazebo in a heartbeat!

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.

Based on the reviews I read before purchasing I expected to be very pleased with the product and overall experience - including the assembly process. I can say that this expectation was met! The product was packaged well and arrived completely undamaged. The assembly instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. That said - preparing and assembling this item is a BIG job... We decided to stain all of our wood pieces before assembling, which in hindsight I'm very glad we went this route. I did most of the work on my own, but there are several steps where several people are definitely needed. Getting the roof panels on, squared and attached was a bit of a challenge, but we got it all in place after some trial and error. The entire process took several weekends to complete. It's been up for couple of weeks now and has already been through several rain storms and a couple of thunderstorms. Happy to say it's held up w/o any issues!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this in the spring and we love it! We love using our backyard, but if it's raining we would always have to run inside but not anymore. Now with our Norwood Gazebo we can stay cool on the hottest of days or dry when it rains!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were looking to update our backyard for more outdoor living space, and saw the Norwood Gazebo. We wanted something sturdy enough to handle the weather in the northeast (rain, wind, snow, heat), and this was it. We cannot be more thrilled with how it turned out. All of our friends love it! It took a few weekends to set up, and I would say to have 3 people help to set it up. I love it, and cannot wait to keep using it!

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to understand manual instructions along with the app. I suggest you use them both together. We were able to build this with myself and my husband but strongly suggest others to assist when operating the post. Didn't realize in order to be under warranty you have to stain or seal the wood every year for 5 years. We have received many compliments about the beauty of the pavilion. Overall we are very pleased with how it turned out.

I had a son pass a little over a year ago so when we bought an acreage recently I wanted to build something in his honor. After doing a lot of research I opted for the Backyard Norwood gazebo. Since it’s usually windy here I liked the wind rating and thought the unit was well styled. I started by building the patio then erected the gazebo. I’m 67 years old and pretty much put this up by myself with the help of a bucket tractor getting the first wall up. Someone had said it helped having someone dedicated to reading the instructions so my wife did that which helped quite a bit. My oldest helped with getting half the roof up but wasn’t around for anything else so I put the other half up by myself doing the framing first then the panels. It actually fell right in place. Because of my schedule I couldn’t devote whole days to the project but time wise it was probably a 3 day deal. Lots of hardware, lol, but I can see why it’s so sturdy. I’m thrilled with how it’s turned out and plan on spending a lot of time celebrating my son there. I wasn’t excited about paying the price but I’m happy I did. Highly recommend it.

[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.
