Nice little shade structure.

Pretty easy to assemble and my wife very much enjoys sitting inside. We use it as a little gazebo. The wood is a bit soft so you need to be careful handling it. Also, the range of motion for the canopy is more restricted than I would prefer.

[Rewarded Review] Nice Pegola; not great directions.

I like the look of the Pergola and so far the pieces seem to fit together well. (We are still in the process of putting it together. We clearly knew for us, it would take more than two hours, but as a retired couple we were not in a hurry.) The part I took exception to was the directions. They are all in pictures, which would be okay (although not ideal). The dimensions they give are only the largest outside dimension (part of the roof extends beyond the posts). What it does not give you is how far apart the posts need to be. That would obviously be helpful to know when you are trying to install the metal post bases. Measuring that took quite a bit of time as we were putting it around our hot tub. Also directions go from installing the front piece and the back piece – no real directions about the side pieces, and again how far apart the front side should be from the back side.

WEBSITE MEASUREMENTS ARE INCORRECT

First this pergola is very nice and easy to assemble with a couple of people. Seems to be well made and looks great. Although the instructions are only pictures so if you like reading instructions, look elsewhere.
