PURPLE LEAF12' X 12' Outdoor Hardtop Gazebo for Patio Galvanized Steel Double Roof Permanent Canopy Teak Finish Coated Aluminum Frame Pavilion Gazebo with Netting

This took around 10 hours to do and 3 people. The instructions are pretty clear. We only messed up once. Everything fit together the way it should. The company was very communicative.Its pretty sturdy for not being wood.Overall we are very very pleased and will promote this company.The only thing I wish is that they had their own line of curtains to purchase.

The media could not be loaded. Awesome gazebo. Very well made and looks amazing. I added the stack stone base for each column and it turned out amazing.

I love this gazebo! I really wanted a screened in porch to enjoy the outdoor without the bugs but it was just to expensive. My dad’s wife suggested getting a gazebo for our deck as it’s way cheaper. I started researching and reading reviews for a couple weeks before I bought this one. We spend a lot of time outside in this.Pros: It’s aesthetically pleasing, sturdy, and accomplishes the job of being protected from bugs and the elements.Cons: Lots of parts, took my husband a couple days by himself to complete… if he had someone else to help he could have probably done it in a day.Over all review… worth it! Not paid, to give this review.

Material came in 5 boxes. Sturdy and well packed, but a few of the aluminum pieces were crimped and required pliers to straighten. No missing pieces 🙌. Instructions were 90% illustrations, and those were often confusing, because it was hard to determine what angle it showed. My husband, his friend and I (all in our late sixties) did the assembly, but it took a week, doing a little bit every day. Much of our time was spent trying to figure out the instructions. Many holes didn’t line up so extra time went into drilling holes. We added the curtains today and am so happy with our shaded sanctuary. Worth the trouble, but will take a few days to recover! Since it is a dark metal roof, it will get hot under the hot summer Central Texas sun, so I’ll be adding a pedestal fan to circulate the hot air out better. My advice would be to have a slow, methodical approach to avoid having to go back and redo. Sure wish they could improve the directions!

Great Gazebo!When the Gazebo arrived I unboxed and verified everything was there and not damaged. Everything looked good and no parts missing. Assembly went smoothly and everything fit very well. Instruction were fine as long as you pay attention followed the sequence and didn't get ahead of yourself. I rented a small rolling scaffold for easier access. I wasn't impressed with the gutter seal included very messy and dry time wasn't great. On the screens around the upper roof I added some metric fender washers before tightening to help them lay flat. I siliconed caulked around the supports of the two center panels on both of the long sides where there was a small amount of daylight the top. Rained the next morning and no leaks. Just what we were looking for.

We received the gazebo about a week after ordering it. It came in 5 boxes. The company did send an email letting us know it was coming and how many boxes we could expect. Once it arrived, we went through every box and inventoried the contents. Nothing was bent, everything was there. We then grouped all of the screws and parts into individual plastic containers. I put a piece of tape on top of each container and marked with a sharpie what was in it; ex: #7 screws, #S, etc. This made it so much easier once we started to put it together.My husband (72) and myself (65) put it together. It took about 22 hours over 4 days from the first inventory to anchoring it onto the deck. We didn't rush it, just worked on it in groups of time. Hubby put the posts together in the garage (it was raining that day) and there was only one hiccup. One of the screws wouldn't fit into the hole as the hole had been drilled about 1/8 inch off. He redrilled it. The next day, we took the posts out to the deck and using ladders, we were able to connect it. Putting the very top tier on was a bit tricky, but I stood on the second to top rung of the ladder in the middle, and held it up while he connected and screwed it to the sides.We knew the roof would be a long day and it was. I was on the inside ladder under the roof, he was on the outside one. It wasn't hard, just a lot of parts and screws, and lining up everything. The Z clips would fall off if you didn't wiggle it in perfectly on the first try, so off the ladder one of us would go and re-connect. But all the screws and holes lined up just fine, do remember not to tighten anything until it's all done, especially the middle beam. We found that when putting the first middle pieces on, it helped to hold the first piece in with a #5, then put the second piece on top. Otherwise the two middle pieces would slide around when trying to overlap.Once done, hubby went under our deck and put up thick pieces of wood between the joists for extra support. He then used 3 inch lag screws to anchor it to the deck. Hopefully it will stand up to the winter winds we get up here. We'll see.We do have a lot of trees in our yard, and after watching a few videos regarding the gutters getting clogged and having to use a screwdriver to remove the debris, I decided to run screening along the top. I purchased 2-inch sticky screen repair (it comes in rolls) and ran that all along the top where the roof meets the gutter. Water can still get in, but the leaves and other debris won't. As you can see from the photos, pollen from the trees is already starting to get on the roof.All in all, it seems like a well built gazebo. The netting is very nice, the roof seems sturdy. We're very pleased with it.
