This is not a flimsy cheap gazebo. This is strong, sturdy and very expensive looking. It's a little pricey but you get what u pay for and this is well worth the price! Love it!

This is a fantastic gazebo once it is completely installed. Installation definitely takes 2-3 persons. There were some bumps in the road while installing.First bump in the road came when assembling Part B, we noticed that the end was crimped/bent and could not insert into Part D. Kozyard support is helpful but we needed to email them proof of damage first. They wanted us to use a flathead plier which we had already tried to do prior to contacting them. Part B replacement was shipped but when we tried to assemble, we discovered that it was not the correct length. Part B on the other sides measured 67" and Part C measures 55". Photos were sent again and another delay in assembly of unit. We finally received the correct Part B and were able to continue with assembly.Next bump in the road came when we connected all the sides together. There were no holes to place for screws in some of the cross supports and had to use self tapping screws. See 2nd photo.The third issue we had was in assembly of the roof panels. Please make sure to use the grommets/spacers provided as they help to push the sections up and keep in place.Helpful tip: We had difficulty lining up the holes and were informed by Kozyard Support that we should loosen the R2 bracket carefully so that when you slide in the roof panels, it goes all the way to the top smoothly. When assembling the roof, we found that it is definitely easier to line the holes up if you attach screws in the upper holes first and do the lower ones on the edges last.It took a while to finally complete the assembly but it is definitely a beautiful structure and should hold up well to the weather. Will check back in after the winter to see how the structure holds up.
Make sure to follow directions and keep square as top interlocking. Beautiful and sturdy. Love the curtains too. I am very pleased with my purchase and am recommending this to all by friendsGreat price too
This gazebo is a very good value. It is well made and low cost. However, mine arrived with one box of parts missing (the frame) and slight damages from shipping. Not the vendor's fault for sure, but somewhere between China and my home, it was damaged. Regardless, although not their fault, the vendor refunded a portion of my cost, which I thought was generous. Also, the vendor proactively followed up and tracked the missing UPS shipment. It was assembled quite easily by two adults in about eight hours despite some of the pieces being incorrectly labeled.
I liked the quality of the Gazebo. I disliked the easy of construction due to alignment issues with the roof.We used the Gazebo on our patio stones. I anchored it to the patio stones.My wife and I have been enjoying every evening bug and mosquito free in the backyard.We are planning two Barbeques this month! (September 2021)
Very nice. Only complaint was instructions could be better. And the netting curtain comes off track very easy. Needs a better design
Like other reviewers said, this is a MINIMUM of a 2 person install. That said, it went together well, and the holes all lined up really nice. If you find they do not, that means either you have the wrong piece, or you installed the previous step incorrectly. It took us about a day and a half (over evenings after work) to get fully assembled. And the day after it was done, it proceeded to torrent rain for 5 days. Didn't even phase it. We are happy with the purchase. - Pro Tip! When assembling the roof, I used a motorcycle jack on a ladder to keep the top center spine in place at the correct (and adjustable) height. It made installing the main roof supports MUCH easier
Bought this gazebo about 2 months ago and it's been up roughly 6 weeks now. Here are my initial thoughts:PROS-Very nice looking gazebo; color and material are also very nice-High quality and very sturdy-Too soon to tell how it will hold up in the wind as it has yet to be "tested"CONS-Takes patience to assemble; took me (one person) 2 days to assemble as there are ~500 pcs of hardware - much of that time was spent rereading the instructions and locating and pre-fitting parts. Unless you like assembling things, like I do, then 2+ people for the job is recommended.-As some other people have mentioned, not all of the screw holes line up perfectly, so a little persistence is needed. In the end I was able to get everything put together with all of the supplied hardware.Very happy with it so far. Would purchase again despite the assembly challenges.
I got this gazebo to serve as a shaded area in the backyard for when I or guests want to relax in the shade. My backyard doesn't have many trees and the sun is usually beating down on this, so this gazebo took care of that issue. Building this was a job. It took many hours of trying to figure out the guide and then trying to put everything together with help from family. The holes on the shade don't align with the holes on the top which was frustrating because it wouldn't fit.
