Outsunny 3 x 4m Hardtop Gazebo Canopy with Metal Roof, Aluminium Gazebo Permanent Pavilion with Netting and Curtains, Brown

Very good quality product.Comes in two HEAVY packages (be careful moving these).Instructions clear and (as expected from other reviews) construction straightforward up until the roof panels.Skeleton was done with two people - though ideally a third would have avoided having to balance it against a wall to get the legs and uprights all put together.Now … the roof panels. This is quite achievable but ONLY IF YOU HAVE A TALL STEP LADDER.Overall: Choose a corner to start. Fit the bottom and top panels, then move around one position, but skip the centre side sections (square panels) as these don’t need access from above so are done last.We spent over an hour failing to get the first corner lower panel in using a small step ladder for the bottom person and a 5 rung step ladder (top rung 1.36m) that only allowed the top person (me) to REACH through the ceiling level. In retrospect this was utterly impossible. I eventually used a 7 rung ladder (1.48m top step) which allowed me to be high enough to reach down and across to roof level when fitting the panels in. I’m 5’8”.Procedurally, the instructions are right (bottom panel first and then top panel) but trial and error gives the following insights.I tried loosening one ‘vertical’ strut each time (the idea being to slot the panel into the tight strut and then ‘easily’ position the looser strut into place). BAD IDEA! It works on some but left too much tensioning to do in the corner verticals to be able to get them bolted back into place. So DON’T LOOSEN THE VERTICAL STRUTS.However DO loosen the horizontal bars (the ones half way up the roof). When tightened these can hinder the panel being pushed up into its slots. Just loosen each end so the bar isn’t hindering movement.For the bottom panel: best to position the ‘hypotenuse’ side first (ie the gazebo corner). We ended up laying the panel roughly in place over the frame and then (mainly from above) slotting the first side (hypotenuse) with the panel just low/out enough for the panel to be clear of the other vertical strut. Then gradually push the panel up from below while the top person guides (sometimes with some pressure) the panel into the second upright. Once in both sides, push up as far as possible and fit the horizontal retaining bar across the bottom of the panel. For top panel the tricky bit is the overlap with the bottom panel as it’s quite a tight fit into the strut/groove. I found fitting the first side easier with the free side lifted up a little. Reach over and force the overlap into its groove. Then fit the free side much the same as for the bottom panel.For the final two sections (mid-side squares) slot the top piece a little way in then make the overlap with the bottom panel (ie below roof level, not in the grooves yet) and push them up together. Fairly straightforward.I would definitely recommend this product but wish I’d had these instructions (and a bigger ladder!) first to make it actually quite readily achievable.

Easy to set up, sturdy, exactly as per description. Stays strong during the storm

Great stuff, had a bit of a panic after reading other people experience of assembly but actually1 man 1teenage boy And 2 ladies supervising and passing bits and keeping the lads right, went together in less than 4 hours and no swearing, we put the two straight panels in last and slid the two pieces together like a tamba door from the bottom and all went really smoothly . It does have a little wobble if pushed but it's not going anywhere, bring on all weather 👍🏼💙 ☀️😎☔️❄️💨Great VFM, just hangs over the patio nicely 🤞🏼 no leaks

*Edit*we've had this up for a few weeks now and it's honestly the best thing ever, we've already had family over, neighbours and our first BBQ of the year and everyone kept commenting on how amazing it is.It's absolutely solidNothing needed readjustingWe bolted the feet down onto slabs and then covered with shingle and the thing doesn't move a muscle, you won't be disappointed*This is an amazing product and I love the finished result, the frame and roof struts were pretty straight forward but OMG the roof panels!Me n my husband managed it between two of us but they are ridiculous to put togetherI read other reviews that said the same or said don't follow the instructionsWe tried putting the smaller top section in first then the bottom, then we tried it the other way around (as per the instructions) bottom section in first then smaller top section after and honestly we found it better the second way, which is how the Instructions sayMy main tips are when doing the middle rectangular pieces, slide then in together at the same timeAnd when doing the triangles, slide the angular side and line that up first then try get the straight side inGood luck it's not for the faint heartedBut other than that I love it, the neighbours are coming over shortly to try it out 😂

No sizes for the setting out for the legs in the instruction pages ,poor diagrams for fitting roof panels, ask for grey got brown with grey curtains double the time it said on the box .once it was finish it look alright ,Don't know if it will hold up in the winter storms.

Item works well, delivery was a complete disaster as the courier left one of the two boxes at the depot so we had to wait for several days.Definitely a two man build. What they could improve is the fly nets and curtains. If it’s slightly breezy they keep blowing inwards and hit you on the head as the little piece of material you are supposed to tie in a bow at the bottom of the leg just detaches from the material. Not strong enough.

Make sure you check contents before start building. We had to have box 1of2 completely replaced owing to bits missing. Frame work is easy. The roof panels are an absolute nightmare.About 2 hrs to erect frame and 6hrs to erect roof.Once completed seems very good.

We thought it easy to put up the gazebo it took two of us a day, with no real problems, I went online YouTube and watched the Outsuny video and just followed it step by step.
