Gorgeous traditional design

We bought this last fall and it is beautiful! Gorgeous stain color and easy assembly with the BILT app!! It has transformed the entire feel of our backyard space! Plus the company is so amazing and responsive! We bought another version in white galvanized steel for our lake house and it is amazing too! Great value for your money!

Even the deer love it!

I’ve owned my house 31 yrs and regret not adding this pergola years ago! It’s created living space in a part of my yard I never used til now. My contractor was skeptical. He planned a day to build the deck and 2 days to build the pergola kit. He arrived at 6AM with his crew of two. When I returned at noon they were almost done!! They said kit was easy and well built. In fact he has ordered kits from you for other projects. He said more economical and time saving than have his crew build from scratch. The deer watched the crew built it and quickly realized they now need to share the yard with us.

Better than building from scratch!

Last summer we finally got to realize our dream of having a backyard pergola. I researched designs and priced materials for building my own from scratch, and then I looked online at kits to compare. I am so glad I did! The Backyard Discovery kit cost less than the wood alone for building my own, and the assembly was super easy. The only tricky part was anchoring it to our patio: the provided anchors kept stripping so I had to replace with stronger ones. But other than that small issue everything else came together really well. And we love sitting outside in our new outdoor living room!

Good product, better service

The pergola itself is fine. It has some weird gaps in the joinery as you might expect from something manufactured in China. But both the customer support team and the assembly folks were great. Very responsive, very friendly, very quick to resolve issues. I would buy from them again just because the customer service was exceptional

AWESOME QUALITY

We are so surprised at how few boxes arrived for the Pergola. At first we were concerned and immediately opened the boxes to check to ensure it was correct. it was and each part was meticulously labeled. We had read the online reviews for assembling and decided we could tackle on our own. My husband our 25 year old completed the assembly in less than 4 hours. My husband had previously unpacked and laid out all of the pieces and parts, so it was ready to go. The organization took about 2 hours, to include ensuring both drills and batteries were all charged. :-) We are thrilled with the quality of the product! Great value for the price!

Good buy, beware of measurements

Overall the pergola is very nice and instructions were clear. Unfortunately the instructions for how long the base is were wrong. All the concrete was laid out exactly to their plan of 114" on center, but when assembled the posts were just over 115" on center. I recommend building all of the long pieces FIRST, then calculate how far apart the posts will be. I am a woodworker and teach engineering. Normally you would cut everything to size as you are building because there can be some changes in wood or other things. So for a pre-made, pre-drilled pergola it's understandable that some holes don't line up, kind of annoying the post distance wasn't correct as they will not be centered on my columns. One thing to add, all of the pieces are short and use a lap joint and bolts to secure them. Cedar is a soft wood, so I glued all of the lap joints and bolted them. Because all of the pieces are bolted together I would not trust standing or putting anything heavy on top. From a learning experience, I recommend building all of the long parts in sections and then sealing them before assembly. Overall it is a fairly good product. The only reason I did not build this from scratch is because the price of lumber to make something similar would have been as much or more than the kit. Had I known all of the long pieces were bolted lap joints and the 6x6 columns are hollow I may have just held out and designed and built my own.

Ok Pergola

Kit is well thought out. The wood is not so good. I have had some punkie spots in the legs and there is signs of cracking now starting to show up after one winter season here in Michigan. Over all its ok but I don't know how long it will last. To bad the wood is not from North America.

Best Kit Ever

At 73, I have been putting together kits for a very long time and in all those years, this is the best kit ever. Everything was included, everything fit, the wood was excellent and the hardware was first rate. Thank you for extra hardware as well as this would be hard to find locally. The directions were terse with great illustrations leaving no doubt as to how to put the pergola together. I am one huge fan of Backyard Discovery!

great assembly instructions, no shortages on hardware, all pre-drilled holes lined up perfectly.

Great product when it finally arrived.(shippers fault) read assembly instructions at least once before beginning. One person can easily do up to step 3. Personally I would recommend anchoring the unit after step 4. It’s much easier to handle being lighter. Then add the rest of the wood. Directions were superb, good hardware and tools and wrenches supplied. A well engineered product.

Awesome Pergola!!

I purchased the 14x10 pergola last fall and absolutely love it. I put it together myself over the course of a weekend (without an extra set of hands, I had to be creative and used step ladders to lean sections upright when fastening together). It’s trickier that way…but still manageable. I was amazed at how well the pieces were marked. Most pre-drilled holes were lined up well, except for a few where I simply had to help with a drill. I have it on our back deck, which has created an entirely new feel and an outdoor oasis - almost like a bonus room. Now I am just looking for some type of cloth shade covering to add on for additional sun protection. BYD - do you have any recommendations?
