Looks great!

I ordered the 10x12 pergola in early June 2020. It arrived in a couple weeks very neatly packed in 2 large, heavy boxes. We unpacked all parts and pieces and laid them out to verify all parts were there (they were) and to confirm everything was in good shape (it was). We took the suggestion of others and sealed all of the wood prior to installation. We completed the installation over 3 evenings, working a couple hours each night. It is definitely suggested to have 3 sets of hands to assist with the first few steps of the getting the joists installed to the posts. The directions were fine, and the installation is pretty simple and straightforward however the worst part of the entire project is the hardware. Most of the predrilled holes lined up (seems like this was an issue for many) but we had many cases where the bolt would not thread into the hub piece. Very frustrating although we got it to work out but had to throw an extra deck screw into a couple locations. The little joist end pieces, which are only decorative, were the worst part of the entire install as the hardware issues we had made for putting these up very difficult. When completed the pergola really looks good and we are certainly happy with the purchase. As others have stated the wood is very soft and light. We love the stain color and as you’ll see the wood is very aromatic. Be cautious when installing the purlins as we used an impact driver and if not careful it will drive the screw deep into the wood. For the price paid this is a really nice and functional pergola. If they sort out the hardware this will be a really great setup.

In love with our backyard now

I had been wanting some structure to provide shade in our backyard since we bought our house four years ago and I only wish we had done this sooner! The pergola looks beautiful and it defines our space so much better. You will want to seal it beforehand and it does require a few friends/family to help put up.

Beautiful and quality pergola

We bought this pergola last May, my husband installed it mostly by himself, I only helped him to carry the heavy posts to the footings. Before purchasing this pergola, I had been shopping for a pergola for years. When I saw this online, I was drawn by its size and quality, think that it will elevate our backyard, and we both just completed our master’s degrees so I bought it as our graduation gift. The delivery took about two weeks to arrive, the crews unloaded the four packages in our covered porch. As recommended by some of the reviews, my husband read the instructions thoroughly, sort through all the pieces and group them. He poured 6 footings that is 16”wide x16” long x18” deep for stability. The installation of the pergola took him about two weekend days. It is absolutely gorgeous. We are very happy with this purchase.

Large and Sturdy

We have been looking for a pergola big enough for a large sitting area and dining table and finally found this one. I love that it is wind tested too as our backyard can get wind gusts and I know this pergola is quality and will withstand the elements.

Good Materials and Design

Pros: Great wood, durable hardware, good design. Very solid. Extra hardware. Cons: Plastic caps on top of four set posts leave 1/8" gap so that brace boards are unable to have bolds and nuts be threaded through - too much space. We tried cutting some of the edges and ultimately discarded the caps. Instructions not detailed enough to explain that two of four brace boards have a row of holes along their top (for the lattice) and need to be placed on outside of the two that lack holes. Probably should have had an extra page in the instructions for this or give the boards with holes a separate number. Neutral: Plastic base plates too flimsy for Florida hurricanes. We used steal base plates that worked well. Interior of set post are not solid cedar, but ripped pine 2x4s. However, cedar overlay done very well - looks like solid cedar. Wish the brace boards were 14' long w/o extensions, but shorter boards with extensions seems to work. Really need three people for this construction, not two.

Easy assembly with step by step instructions

I bought this 16x12 set and put it up very easily between my wife and I with no other help. Instructions were precise and everything lined up. Only disappointment were the cement screws they gave me in the hardware box. 3 out of the first 4 snapped off while screwing them into the predrilled holes in the concrete. I stopped immediately and drove to the hardware store and purchased Tapcon cement scres of same size. it went smoothly with the new screws. It looks awesome!

We love our new pergola!

We took delivery of the 12 x 10 cedar pergola kit in early June. From start to finish, the process has been positive and the end result is the creation of a new peaceful place! Ordering was very simple, delivery arrived a day sooner than expected. The kit came in two boxes. Before assembling, we used a protective sealant. Easy to assemble, quality construction, quality hardware, excellent, easy-to-follow instructions. We added a removable light-filtering tarp on the roof for protection from the mid-day sun, and solar-powered lights on the inside ceiling. We absolutely love the addition to our outdoor space!

Great Quality 🥰

I bought the 16x12 Beaumont Pergola in June and it really completed my backyard. My bottler and 14 year old put it together in a few hours. The directions were self explanatory, which made the installation process smooth. I was worried I got the wrong size, but couldn’t be happier with my choice. My backyard gets quite a bit of sun, so the pergola provided the right amount of shade for us to relax as a family. I would highly highly recommend backyard discovery, if you’re thinking about getting a pergola. I have absolutely no regrets with my purchase.

backyard pergola 12x10

assembly was easier to follow with Bilt than with instructions that came with kit. Wish I'd have purchased and assembled in January instead of June. Texas heat was brutal.\nI had a little issue with holes not lining up. Ended up drilling larger holes to get boards lined up\nIt's now finished, sun shades are mounted and we love it!

Love This Pergola!

We bought this Pergola from Sam's Club. It said it was to be delivered in a month, but we received it much earlier. We love it. I had so many people message and call me asking where we got it. It is definitely a 2, maybe even 3 person job. I give it 4 stars because my husband did have to redrill some holes, as not everything lined up as it should. We also noticed after it was up, a front post split vertically down the middle. Otherwise, we love this Pergola.
