Yardistry 10 ft. × 12 ft. Meridian Cedar Gazebo with Aluminum Roof

After spending 20 hours over two days we have finally finished constructing this gazebo. I hired a contractor with experience installing gazebo kits plus a friend to help me put this together. I also had an additional person help when putting the roof on. Now that it is assembled I am happy with the quality, look, and sturdiness of the gazebo. We found the instructions unclear at times and there was at least two instances where we were instructed to do something that we subsequently had to undo later in order to proceed with the assembly. One example of this was we were told to install t-nuts in an area that we then had to deconstruct the entire beam assembly later to remove before moving forward with the construction. The diagrams, in several instances, did not match up with the written instructions thus causing significant confusion and backtracking. Moreover, the diagrams were often vague or unclear which resulted in further delays once we realized the mistake after already proceeding several steps further in the instructions. The plastic wrapping on the roof sections was also too abundant (could have perhaps separated using pieces with tissue or wax paper instead?) and very time-consuming to unwrap. To reiterate, I am happy with the apparent quality and look of the structure, but I would not recommend purchasing this product unless you plan to have it professionally installed by a company very familiar with Yardistry products.
