This review is only based on the gazebo and not the company that took 5 weeks to sent me replacement parts. Lots of pieces and time in this but it was worth it. its nice that you can open the louvers to let sun in when you want it. Pieces are sturdy, assembly was long, especially with a five week break in between, but it is a nice gazebo.

We absolutely love this pergola for our backyard garden retreat! But it doesnt assemble and build itself lol so be ready for a big job! Youll need 2-3 people, a well prepped space, and a lot of patience. It came in 6 long and fairly heavy boxes. However, the boxes are very well marked, everything is nicely organized, and the instructions are excellent. The materials are all of good quality. My only worry is the hardware is not stainless steel so I will have rust happening eventually here in our salty coastal Florida environment. Depending on what sturdy base youll be installing this pergola on, either concrete or wood, youll need to buy the respective anchors to secure it. This pergola is now our favorite space to unwind and relax. I love that I can close the louvers above to escape the summer sun but can open for clear and starry nights. We installed some soft solar lights to give a tropical, resort feel. So if you are or have some handy and able bodies to assemble and install this monster, I think youll really enjoy this pergola for your next covered retreat!

The direction did not help and were written poorly, and the product came damaged.

The aluminum pergola looks modern and works great in our backyard. The adjustable louver roof is smooth and provides good shade and ventilation. Installation definitely requires 2–3 people and takes some time. The four support posts could be a bit thicker and sturdier, especially for windy days. I also wish the overall height was slightly taller. Other than those minor issues, the quality, appearance, and functionality are all very good for the price.

Building the pergola turned out to be a big project. The quality of the materials is exceptional, and all the necessary pieces, instructions, and tools were provided. While it did require some time and patience, once you get into a rhythm, you can complete it in about a day. Having a second set of hands would have been helpful, but I managed to do it myself. The delivery experience was fantastic. We received six large, heavy boxes, and all the parts were neatly organized. The box arrived without any damage, which was a relief. The quality of the materials is evident, and we’re eagerly looking forward to setting up the gazebo and using it. I highly recommend this product. It has truly brought our patio together, and I love the convertible louvers that can be adjusted to let in sunlight when needed.
