I purchased this Pergola as a Mother's Day gift. I had a unique size area where every Pergola was either too big or much too small. After reviewing the online plans, I determined with my basic construction knowledge and tools that I could modify the 10' X 12' Pergola slightly smaller to fit my area. Even without modifications, this Pergola was good quality and easy to install. I would definitely recommend this to other buyers.

We didn’t erect the pergola ourselves due to age and health issues, but our handyman Jake and his two teenage sons did.. they downloaded the app, and with enclosed instructions it went up in now time even on the hottest day in history in our town.. now it is ready for me to get out and get it ready for finishing touches. Thank you so much!

We bought this pergola from Backyard Discovery and purchased the assembly package with it. We love it and it was worth every penny to have it put together for us. What took them two hours to put tougher would have taken us days! The guys that did the work were very professional and polite. We even had them come back and put the polycarbonate to on it. Now it's out backyard Oasis!

The wood is very lightweight. There are short ends that bolt separately and could possibly sag. The stain on it is for aesthetics only. Therefore we stained it to help seal and preserve the wood even though cedar is naturally resistant. We wanted a reddish brown stain to match our trim. We also poured peers to raise the posts up to frame large living room window views to the backyard. Worked out great! Fairly easy build and we love the look.

We ordered the 16x12 and it arrived on time in several boxes. My husband put it together over a weekend. I will say that it’s a bit weird that the main posts are hollow and some of the pieces don’t seem to fit well together, almost looks like it’s a bit uneven in places but only if you have a critical eye like me. I’d say overall it has made a huge improvement to the look of our backyard. On it’s own, it does not provide nearly as much shade as I had hoped and we had to buy a separate cover to put on top. Again, for the price point, it was a great purchase.

I bought the 14X10 Pergola kit to add shade and structure to our pool area in our newly purchased home. Two big boxes arrived on Thursday and after 2 mornings of work, we were done! Very happy with the quality of the materials, however my helper and I could improve our reading and observation skills. Most everything was pre-drilled so no math or measuring needed (even though we did until we discovered the holes). Sealer and 8X10 shade cloth are next - necessary for Texas summer. Love it!

Overall I am satisfied with this product. I would have given 5 stars if the bolts and nuts would have been higher quality. They can be easily cross threaded if you are not careful. A few holes did not align on the short pieces but were fixed by drilling out a little. I would recommend this product and would buy it again.

Pleasantly surprised by the accuracy and condition of the contents of the shipped pergola. No missing parts and all components were in excellent condition. For such a large amount of wooden parts I expected to find some pieces in either warped or cracked condition. However every thing was in great shape and all parts fit as designed. No holes were miss aligned and all hardware worked as designed.

This is a nice pergola, but I can’t give it 5 stars for the following reasons: 1. Some of the boards were warped when we unpackaged them 2. As a result of the boards being warped, some of the holes did not line up. 3. Written instructions were a little confusing It is nice and sturdy. Because we live in Florida my husband secured the legs to a concrete poured base

The pergola is beautiful. The pergola arrived in four boxes. Nothing was damaged, no parts were missing. The setup instructions were easy to follow, Sine the pergola is made from cedar the individual parts are not overly heavy. My wife and I set this up in a day. We couldn’t be happier. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a pergola.
