EROMMY12' x 20' Hardtop Gazebo, Galvanized Steel Double Roof Gazebo with Aluminum Frame, Permanent Outdoor Metal Pavilion with Curtain and Netting for Patio, Lawn and Garden

I have to admit that I was a little worried about the materials while installing this Gazebo. But once completed, I was pleasantly surprised how sturdy it turned out. The next day (after installation), we were hit by a big thunderstorm with 40mph wind gusts. Even though this was anchored into the concrete, no damage occured to the Gazebo itself.The installation did take some time. It requires two people and took approximately 9 hrs to complete. The install guide was perfectly written.In hindsight, I am impressed by this product and would recommend to anyone that is looking for a moderately cheaper solution.

So took about 9 hours to assemble, and yes the directions leave a bit to be desired. As such a little common construction knowledge helps. While two people can assemble will go faster with three - four. Once complete, I'm impressed with how sturdy the gazebo is and looks really nice.

This was a great purchase! After comparing gazebos at box stores in my area and online, I decided to pursues this Erommy 10x12 metal roof gazebo from Amazon. It was on sale for $679 and I paid $200 for shipping. It was delivered by FedEx in two shipments. One long narrow box that weighed about 112 lbs and another more square, fly box that weighed about 124 lbs. The boxes were labeled 1of 2 and so on. I couldn’t move the boxes to my backyard, so I opened them in my garage, sorted out the parts and then carried them as I needed them for each step to the backyard.Pros first: 1. Great communication with the manufacturer. 2. Product arrived on time and it was packed incredibly well. They even used a wooden frame in the larger box with metal corner brackets to protect the sheets of metal on the roof from bending. 3. All the parts were present and undamaged. 4. The instructions were mostly photos and relatively easy to figure out. 5. All the fasteners were sorted and taped to cardboard sheets which was a pro and a con. Pro from the perspective that they were sorted out, con because they were annoying and sometimes downright difficult to remove from the cardboard and sticky plastic covering. Also they weren’t labeled on the cardboard sheets which would have been very helpful, although it was possible to figure it out, but was a time consuming extra step. I think numbered baggies might have been easier, but riskier also sooo, whatever. 6. With one exception all the holes were present and matched up relatively easily. The weight and quality of the metal was at least what I expected and actually impressed me in weight, sturdiness, color, finish and appearance. 6. The assembled gazebo is beautiful, perfectly sized, study, and an excellent, excellent quality for the price and compared with similar gazebos of double or triple the price. 7. The assembly was mostly straightforward and not difficult with a couple of major exceptions.Cons: Everything was fine right up to the instructions for installing the roof panels. There are these clips that slip onto the slanted edges of the panel pieces that go in the corners, then the angled roof piece with the clips slides into a channel in the frame of the gazebo. You are instructed to first assemble a horizontal rail that the panels will rest in (so they don’t slide out and decapitate passersby. This means that the panels must slide in from the top of the rails. This was extremely difficult to accomplish on the smaller upper roof due to the height of the roof and the reach required to get to the very top and slide down. Also the clips would come off and fall into the channel which would require a restart on that panel. I ended up loosening the lower rail and sliding them in from the bottom on the short sides. This discrepancy between reality and the written instructions took me hours to figure out (at this point I was doing this by myself). I scoured the internet for anyone else who had this problem and could find nothing! Even the company’s own videos showed the roof panels magically sliding into place. I finally made it work on the small top roof, but in the case of the lower roof it was physically impossible to install the panels from the top. We had to devise a way to push the panels into the channel from the side without popping off the clips. We decided to use clear packing tape to tape the clips on. We pushed the corner panels into the channel from the sides and then put the middles in last. They have to overlap, so that is a bit of a learning curve too. Then we screwed the panels in with one of the spacers and screws just to hold it in place till we got the rest in and could put the lower track on. Once we figured that out, things picked up steam again. Also, the instructions show you installing the concrete sleeve anchors in about step 4, well before the frame is even squared up, which is obviously stupid. After we had the whole thing assembled and where we wanted it on our patio, we rented a hammer drill from Menards, bought a 3/8 concrete hammer drill bit for under $7 watched a bunch of YouTube videos and after some trial and error secured the entire gazebo to the cement patio with the sleeve anchors provided. If you don’t anchor this gazebo down, you will be throwing its twisted carcass in your trash after the first windstorm. The entire gazebo weighs less than 250lbs which is a fluffy human and once the roof is on it’s like a giant umbrella. Anchor it down well or you will be sorry. Once anchored it seems very sturdy. We rented the hammer drill for 4 hours and it took about 2 to do the work. The holes in the metal support plates were not big enough, but the hammer drill enlarged them easily.Once assembled this gazebo is exactly what I was hoping it would be. With the mosquito screens zipped it is cool inside and the bugs are outside. We spent the whole weekend hanging out inside reading napping, talking. It is perfect on my patio.

I did an inventory of everything in the boxes. All of the parts are wrapped in plastic and have a number tagged on the outside. I pre-assembled the legs and cross beams, which was very straight forward. I also had everything laid out according to the steps so it was easy for me and my 3 helpers to find everything. There are few things to watch out for when assembling. Make sure you slow down and follow the diagram instructions before going on to the next step.I am very happy with this product. I put the curtains on and then took them off. I didn't like the look. But I did keep the mosquito netting on. Having 3 other guys to help me made this assembly easy.One other trick to help you: they give you 2 hex keys. I cut them in half so I could put the put hex bit in my drill. Super fast and easier than hand cranking with a hex key.

Very difficult to assemble. I purchased the version with the steel roof panels. Roof panels have these slide on brackets that fall off whenever you attempt to put roof panels into place. After hours of frustration with the roof panels i gave up on these clips and was able to get roof up without them. The roof is not properly assembled but it does not appear to have any structural issues. I would definitely not recommend this product, in retrospect it would've been worth it for me to spend the extra money for something better quality and easier assembly. If i had not already committed so much time to building this, I would've returned it, but the thought of spending hours disassembling it and putting it back into the box is also not worth my time. Huge regret in buying this gazebo

This is thee MOST beautiful gazebo ever. It’s so amazing. You can use it in all weather conditions. When it cold and windy you just have to zip all of the curtains and you’ll be comfy and cozy. Just keep your eye on the zippers. They will fly off if it’s too windy. We lost 2 of the in a wind storm.
