HAPPATIO10' x 12' Hardtop Gazebo with Netting and Curtains, Double Roof Permanent Patio Metal Gazebo Canopy for Patio, Deck, Backyard （Gray）

Let me say, 3 years ago I bought a Gazebo from Costco. It was one of the worst, most difficult gazebo to build. Three complete days later...no fun! Fast forward to this one and I had it built in about 6 hours with little help from others. love the draining of the water down the post. No verbal instructions, but good pictures and a video to help. built very well and the price was great! I bought the biggest one they sold and no regrets. Great value for the money.

Well made. Kind of a booger to put together, but just time consuming. All parts are numbered so it is easy to follow. You’ll need a drill bit for the concrete holes for the holding bolts and time but it’s beautiful when completed

Update: Added a star for excellent customer service. They saw my review and asked how they could improve the instructions and compensated me for difficultiesWe bought this instead of getting a carport for our UTV. I am happy with the assembled product. It is very attractive and seems sturdy. I plan to poor some concrete pillars in the ground to bolt it too. The assembly was hell though. Don't get me wrong, it's worth it, just be prepared.Absolutely use a drill with an allen wrench insert. It took me 11 hours with my wife helping with two of the steps. The pieces are well labeled and I laid them out first. I did find the S2 pieces inside one of the C pieces though. The instructions tell you to check inside the A pieces, but there was nothing there. It is really easy to cross thread the bolts and once you do, you just have to force them in. In a few spots the little thing the screws screw into break loose and you can't tighten or loosen the screw anymore. When that happened I drilled a hole and put in a rivet. There's one step where you have sets two 'A' legs connected with 'arms sticking' out and you are supposed to stand the whole mess up and connect them together with the L plates. This was really hard and the wind completely bent several of the arms and ripped the 'nuts' out of the legs. The first time this happened I drilled the installed rivets out of the 'A' leg, put a sheet metal plate behind it and held the 'nuts' in place with needle nose while I put the screws in. I saw another 'A' leg had one of its 'nuts' partially ripped out and I realized it was easier to just use my rivets rather than the plate method. On our second attempt to do this step, we did it upside down (duh) on the ground instead of in mid air as the instructions showed. We had to be really careful flipping it back over though to avoid ripping out the nuts. I think it would be smarter to do it upside down and install the angle supports before uprighting it. Other issues: On the top little roof the image did not make it clear which way the edge pieces were supposed to be oriented. I had to redo them when I got to a later step. There are several steps where you are supposed to mount these 'M' pieces over to edge pieces. To do this you have to line up 4 holes and get a screw in while being on a ladder. It was very hard. One one spot I could not get them to line up and had to drill out one of the holes bigger. When putting on the lower roof pieces, there is no way to reach the top most screw from a ladder. I had to do it from the inside and snake my hand out over the roof. It was hard to get the screw started. On the small roof, one of the 'F' pieces just would not line up. I had to make three cuts with metal shears to make it work. I was putting on the last piece ('R'?) and it was completely missing a hole to line up with the screw underneath.

I HAD to take the time to review. Probably my fav purchase on Amazon. I read reviews, and spent two weeks choosing a metal top gazebo. SO GLAD I chose this one. I have the 12x10 model. Unlike many manufacturers out there, you do not lose a whole foot due to roof overhang, it is the closest to 10 x 12 space inside. The directions for assembly are VERY clear. It does come in three boxes and the third box came a different day so be patient. EASY to assemble, but cmon, of course you need at least one other person. We assembled with three. Three or four people and you will have it up in no time. Being three big boxes it looks overwhelming, but it really was pretty slick. We put it in during a heat wave last week. With no breaks we WOULD have had it done in less than three hours, but it was so hot, we HAD to take breaks. None of my parts were damaged or missing. It rained the evening we put it up-to this day, NO LEAKS. All holes lined up, etc. just fine. The integrated gutter is genius. No water pouring off the roof at all. Love sitting it in during rain and storm. All is beyond my expectations-thus far, KOW. I DO live in WI so I plan on reinforcing the roof with 2x4 supports for winter so I do not have to brush it off. If I recall correctly I think it is rated for 6 inches? And with a black roof, the winter sun should clear it off, but I won't risk it. Love this thing too much. I did add window screen between the two tier roof to keep bugs out from entering through the top. We hung a box fan on low setting facing the top of roof, to blow out top heat, and it is always comfy in here.

Great addition to patio.

The media could not be loaded. Finally received all the boxes and had a chance to start putting it together. We had a 10x12 previous and this is not even close. It measures 9 ft 1 in x 11 ft 4 in. So almost a whole foot shorter unless this company is measuring the size of the roof which I haven't gotten to yet but even then it should be the structure not the roof measuments. Either way this is not a 10x12 no way. Very disappointing to say the least. Not happy when they asked me to contact FedEx when they said one box was delivered and it wasn't and the poor FedEx guy had no idea why it wasn't on the truck looking for it for10 mins. So if you want a true 10x12 do not buy this. Frustrated at this whole process. Nice looking so I will give it that and that only. Person saying you don't loose a ft is wrong. Also not going to keep bugs out when the roof has wide open holes as per pic that is totally and as you can see spaces. So what is the point of selling it with netting and curtains? It isn't going to keep bugs out on top. Supplying a video so you can see that water just pours down and does not all go in the gutter. At each seem the rain showers down and the product states with gutter no more rain coming down on the sides. Wish I could pack this back up and return it such a huge mistake from the shipping to the product. My old one didn't have rain pour down like that right where you would walk in or out it. Please do not buy and thus review will not be shown unless you hit the one stars which I should have done. Sorry forgot to attach the video
