So far so good! Chose this product at a family members recommendation of the brand. We opted for the assembly which I think is worth the extra money to have it done correctly. Even with the product coming earlier than estimated the assembly company offered a sooner date even coming up on a holiday weekend. Overall very pleased with the structure and it feels super sturdy!!

We were very impressed that the kit included nearly every tool you'll need, including helpful clamps! You'll need a good drill driver, impact driver, and a deadfall hammer helped too. It is a large kit so we had it spread out and placed all the hardware (HW) and brackets on a table. Had to move the table under some shade cuz the sun made everything too hot to touch! all the packages are plainly labeled but it would have been better if the ones with stick on labels would have been printed on the plastic as well cuz the rain made some come off, so I just just open the bag and put the label inside, also a solution. I had poured 2 concrete pilings for the back and sunk anchors for the pool deck legs, so none of the provided foot HW could be used. The posts are TRUE 6x6 so going to the HW store to get "6x6" post brackets won't work because the store brackets are actually 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" even though they "say" they're 6x6. So we had to shave a 1/4" off each side so I could anchor them properly. Make certain you're square before you pour concrete or drill anchors. We did and it aligned just fine. Once you get to the phase of standing the posts up you'll need more than 2 able bodied people to help. The ROOF... FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS!!! Each side roof panel is assembled differently. The instructions state this as well. Making sure the roof is square is very critical. It says you can have a 1/4" of play and that is it, so don't screw it down tight until you get it flexed into the measurements needed. Again, you'll need 1 more than just two able-bodied folks to put each panel up to the roof. This unit is tall so the handy cedar boards provided as temporary support legs while each side is joined together worked well to help the 3rd person.

The pergola is great, not too bad to build. The process to get it, HORRIBLE. To spare reading an essay, it was an absolute NIGHTMARE to get it. It was extremely delayed and the customer service from Sam's was HORRENDOUS, including the third party, Twelve Point. Coastal Connections, people who actually delivered the six boxes, even said how horrible Twelve Point is. Manager at Sam's clearly did not care either after I finally tracked him down. Sam's, DO BETTER.

This was the perfect for my patio Irish I had purchased 2

We love our Backyard gazebo, it is the center of our family and friends get together. We spend all day outside enjoying feeding the birds and squirrels who love the food placed out for them.

We could not be happier with our Gazebo. It is beautiful and well built. Plus it has allowed us to use our deck. I would highly recommend spending the money on one of these structure from Back Yard Discovery.

We bought this about a month ago and are loving it, I paid for the installation, well worth it (three men on two different days, driving from 4 hours away)

It's beautiful, very sturdy, and an excellent addition to our backyard. I paid extra to have it assembled and I'm glad I did, two people put it together of two days. We did hire an electrician and added power. It's a nice gazebo.

We love our gazebo. I added lights and electricity and bamboo blinds to block the sunlight. We love sitting out in the early morning drinking our coffee. The install team got it assembled just before my birthday party. Thanks guys.

I do love the gazebo I purchased however, I was not impressed by the amount of warped boards I had in this package. I was able to manipulate the alignment in my favor.
