We have had this Gazebo up for just over 3 months and the Cedar wood has split apart on every corner, and the top wooden boards on roof are warping. The Gazebo has been up since July - Now, Nov 1. I have reached out to customer service, and they state nothing can be done because the Protection Plan was not purchased. The Gazebo itself - looks beautiful. However it’s flimsy, and does not withstand wind very well. The Tin has pulled off from the bolts and flaps around in the wind. We have yet to make it through the winter Months here in Saskatchewan. if I were you I would save your money on this purchase, and go for something more durable with built in warranty.

Great Gazebo - Good Value

The unit assembled easily and everything lined up perfectly. The instructions are pictorial but were very detailed and easy to follow.

Great gazebo!

I am very happy with this purchase. It took about 10.5 hrs with two adults. There is a missing step in the instructions regarding the middle post on the long side of the roof. Overall, the instructions are decent but you need to pay close attention to the layout in the picture. I recommend using painters tape and label your frame pieces with their numbers) to help assembly of the roof faster.

OK. Don’t typically write reviews. But think this one is worth writing. This Gazebo is freakin amazing. The build directions are very well done. I will say this. Day ONE. do your subassembly’s. When you actually start to build the Gazebo you’ll be glad you did. And trust me. When you set the poles and build the cedar frame. FOUR PEOPLE ARE A MUST. After that two is convenient to save up and down the ladders. But once you are done. You’ll be very happy with the quality and precision of this gazebo. Extremely Happy. Thank you Wayfair.

Gazebo shipped one week earlier than what I was told through the email, which was nice. Two big, heavy boxes, I used a moving dolly and freight driver helped me roll them up the driveway from the street (had to do it twice). Lots of pieces, I took my time organizing each, which helped in building it. Directions said you would need help from other people at certain points, but I put it up all by myself, no help. I used two A frame ladders in order to do it. Only spot that was tricky was standing posts up and connecting the other post to them. When I had a cross beam connect to two post, I picked it up and leaned it against one sturdy ladder (make sure there is no wind) after that I did an end piece to connect to one of the standing posts. Once three post are connected you should be good to go. First day took me about 6 hours. All post up, cross supports and all metal framing for the roof. Second day about 5 hours to complete rest. I have mine on a stamped concrete patio so I used concrete screws to give it extra support as I get a lot of wind in my area. Good project and looks great when done. Time will tell how it will hold up.

I have build Gazebo's and other covers in my years from scratch. But never thought I would receive such a awesome product compared to what I could build. The instructions were very simple to read and assemble took us about 6 hours with 3 people including a couple of breaks for food and drinks. It came in 2 big boxes from Sunjoy through homedepot on a fedex truck and weighted around 600 pounds. Took me about an 45 minutes to unbox everything and move it to the backyard for install. All components were marked with letters and numbers as the instructions stated from start to finish. Once I got it in the backyard I organized the parts using the instructions which took about 30 minutes then started the assembly.I used (4) 16x16x4 cemet pads that i bolted to concrete that was already in the ground from an older cover removed years ago.The soft cedar wood was easy to screw the screws into using just a Phillips screwdriver , but of course to speed things up i used my low torque drill and this made things go much faster. Just remember when putting together do not over tighten the screws as the instructions states this because the wood is so soft you can strip the screws or crack the wood. You will also need 2 to 4 ladders I used (2) 6' and (2) 10' ladders. I used the 10' ladders to put on the very top of the roof, made it easy to reach the bolts to screw them down so I would not need to reach or put my weight on the roof. Also it came with extra bolts and nuts. when putting the roof together best to leave the bolts a little lose for any adjustments you might need to make and then go back and tighten them. This is all in the instructions as well. Like I stated at the beginning this is such an awesome Gazebo from Sunjoy and the workmanship Sunjoy put into it is outstanding. We look forward to spending many years under it grilling and relaxing once I finish leveling and adding the brick flooring. THANKS SUNJOY FOR MAKING SUCH A AWESOME PRODUCT
