This is a very good looking gazebo and the only one that has stood up to gale force winds, several times now! Has totally exceeded our expectations!

After enjoying our Gazebo for over a month, we have been using it almost daily and love it. It took my 13 year old son and I couple evening to put this together. I looked for many months for a 10' x 12' gazebo and the reviews/seller is what attracted to me. Not only was this by far the best one I could find at this price range to handle these high winds we get in Ohio, the seller commitment to your satisfaction sold me.

It is sturdy and very attractive. It took approximately 10 hours to put together. I thought that I would be able to assemble it myself, but I did need help. The instructions are good, but as others mentioned, watching the video really made it easy. We anchored it to the deck as we have pretty high winds. It really makes a difference as far as getting out of the sun and having some shade. I purchased the curtains separately to help when the sun is setting and to provide privacy.

We put our gazebo up on Saturday but I am already in love with it!!! It's definitely my new Happy place! It took my husband, father in law and I 9hrs. to fully assemble this. The instructions were clear and all parts were fine. I love everything about this except the color or the mosquito netting because I am not a fan of brown but the quality of the gazebo and netting is amazing so far. Also, the netting has great details for zipping, pulluing netting to the side, securing it to the gazebo, etc. Love, love, love!!!!! Will update as time goes on but so far it gets a solid 10 from me!!!!

The gazebo is perfect and exactly what I was looking for! The mosquito netting works really well and I love the fact that there is netting in the roof of the gazebo. It rained the other day and not a drop of water leaked through. The packaging the gazebo came in definitely prevented the gazebo from getting damaged, but I ended up with a lot of trash to try and get rid of - two wood pallets and two metal framing units. Overall, this product is perfect and I am extremely happy with the end result.

so far so good the only gripe is that there are no rain gutters and the metal roof makes a sound when its hot and cold at night occasional thud as expected when metal contracts or expands

Took me about 11 hrs- by myself to assemble. The fact it comes in its own skeleton metal frame- so as not to damage by shipping company- was a big bonus, as the handling destroyed the box. The parts are marked very well and I installed a power box while I had the roof frame assembly on the ground. the frame actually comes with a hook in the center for a lamp to hang- so worked out great. Purchased at same time the privacy curtain kit- since it has two rails inside for curtains- everything worked out perfect.

My husband and I built the frame the first day, but needed a second set of hands to connect them so our son came the second day to help us finish it. The most important thing to understand about the instructions is that each piece goes in a specific place. The directions are not always very clear, but it wasn't too hard to figure out since you couldn't really put it together wrong. We are very happy with the results!

My advice is that you will need at least 2 people to install this gazebo if you have a 3rd person that would be great. The video shows 3 people. You will also need 2 ladders. We used a 6' ladder and a 4 step stool. We only had one ladder, if you have two, even better. We are both in our 50s, 54 and 53, and we were able to assemble it by ourselves. The roof is very easy to put up but will need two people for this process as they are heavy. The Gazebo does come with extra screws and washers, in case you lose one or two, as we did. We used a cordless drill and it was much easier. We love this Gazebo so far. We hope it lasts us for many years.

This is a hardtop,all metal gazebo. After doing a ton of research, we decided against a soft top in the northeast USA as the first snow or strong wind storm would destroy the top. These "roof" panels are steel and framing structure a mix of steel and aluminum. Instructions say this is preferably a six man/two ladder operation that can be completed anywhere from 2.5 to 6 hours depending on available manpower and skill level. I'm a very skilled non professional builder and managed to assemble the entire structure solo with one ladder in a total of 17 hours. At the very least there should be one other person to assist. I definitely had some sketchy moments but this is not complicated to assemble. Literally only need a screwdriver and a ladder. If mounting over lawn/dirt you'll need a hammer for the post stakes They supply the hex wrench.....BUT if you want this built in a reasonable amount of time you'll need a 7/16" or 11mm socket, a power socket driver and a screw gun. There are hundreds and hundreds of fasteners and washers. I also used blue (medium) thread sealer on all fasteners after reading some other reviews of the stability of the structure. I also used a 4' level to check plumb of the posts and tape measure to check squareness of the posts to one another. Final product is very nice looking, price it's unbeatable, simple assembly, all metal construction, which is why I gave it five stars. Looking forward to nice weather....
