Review on Outdoor Hardtop Gazebo With Privacy Curtains And Mosquito Netting - 11' X 13' Spruce Wood Design For Patios, Gardens, And Backyards - YOLENY by Kevin Ballard

Exceeded expectations in appearance, design, durability and ease of assembly. My wife and I assembled in three days taking several breaks in the low 90° temperatures. We liked the appearance in the manufacturer’s photos and selected from those photos. Read several reviews and made decision based on both. We knew we would not have help to assemble posts to side and erect frame, but with those items being constructed from aluminum the weight was doable for us. First box of 6 arrived in two days and remaining 5 the following day. The first box contained the roof framework and side structure that connected to the corner posts. Box was burst open on both ends and was severely damaged. After opening and inspecting contents, we found no damage. The remaining 5 boxes arrived with the exception of one of the flatter boxes containing the roof panels with no damage. One of the flat boxes had a couple gouges on the flat side. When opened the roof panels had dents. After evaluating situation, we decided we could use those on side that was not in our view but side neighbor would view. After assembling dented panels on roof, it was hard to find damage. Another persons review said screens and curtains were cheap quality. We did not find that to be true. We didn’t plan on using screens and curtains, but installed anyway and will store during winter months. We are not bothered with insects just flies. After using screens and eliminating flies, we will definitely use during summer months. The zippers work well and slide easily to open and close. Our experience with zippered curtains and screens in the past has been they don’t operate well. The appearance of the finish is very pleasing and attention to detail of trim and exposed fits are above expectation. I did not have enough 6mm X 47mm long screws. I contacted seller requesting they send me 6 to complete assembling roof panels and as I suspected they gave me $15 credit to purchase at local hardware. I’m sure these are packed in China and seller does not have any hardware. Only problem is local hardware stores are limited in selection. I visited 2 hardware stores with no success. I found 6mm X 50 at Lowes that I cut excess off and painted head black to match. Also, I mentioned box damage and the two sheets of roof damage FYI, but didn’t ask for compensation as I informed I could use on back side out of view. They also gave me $15 credit for damaged roof. They responded next day, so customer service responded immediately and addressed my needs. I would definitely recommend this amazing Gazebo. It is very time consuming to assemble, but as other reviews have said, take your time and follow the illustrations and you want be disappointed with this Gazebo. The instructions have no written words, just drawings.
