Ratings & Reviews for Backyard Discovery Stratford 12-ft W x 14-ft L x 7-ft 10-3/4-in H Black Metal Freestanding Pergola with Canopy

Elegant and easy to install

Great purchase. Straightforward to put together; however would recommend having 2 people to assemble all the beams and then 4-5 people to hold/bolt together the frame. After that step, the rest goes pretty quickly (even faster with 2 people and 2 ladders). Still looks great after nearly a year of use. Highly recommend.

Perfect outdoor room

We needed a space for shade and a space where we wanted to create an outdoor room. We took a space of our outdoor patio to do that. So my husband and I with our sons completed the pergola in 4 hours. Each time I look at the pergola I’m in awe of its beauty and reminded of our time building it. It was actually a lot of fun to build. Each person had their role to play in making it. The instructions were fantastic. I would definitely purchase again from Backyard Discovery. Our sun shade is...

Beautiful addition to our patio

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the pergola a year ago. It added so much elegance to our backyard

Gorgeous Pergola

We bought this pergola for our lower level patio last summer. We wanted something to match our new home, and considered getting a cedar pergola since we have cedar trim on the ground level porch that sits above it. We decided on this one because it will be much less maintenance than cedar, and is still a great match to the house. We love it. My husband and I assembled it ourselves. If I am being 100% honest, the instructions were not great. Part of my job was writing instructions, and I would ...

Exactly what I wanted!

I waited months for this product to come off back order during the pandemic. I am so happy! It was well worth the wait!

Perfect Pergola!

Quality product and it is reasonably priced.

We love our pergola!

This pergola is just what our backyard needed! It's beautiful and we get many compliments. It came in well organized boxes and was pretty easy to put together. Customer service was excelent, responded right away to questions. We now have a nice place on our patio to entertain family and friends!

Awesome Pergola

Couldn’t be more happy with this pergola. Took my neighbor and myself a day to install it completely. The instructions were easy to follow and had no trouble at all. It looks fantastic and is beyond sturdy. The shade cover is great for those hot days. I can’t think of any changes to the design I would make, we love it!

Happy with my purchase!

Great product. Happy that I decided to go with a steel pergola since it looks and feels so much sturdier than others. Guests always compliment it.

Beautiful

We bought this pergola to replace an older one purchased at a local home improvement store. We are very happy with the quality, compared to the old pergola. The instructions were easy to follow. Highly recommend!

Very pleased with one suggested improvement

Shipping was prompt, especially given that the pergola required freight delivery. All the parts were well packed and protected. The hardware for assembly was on blister pack cards and easily identifiable. The designers did a good job limiting the variety of fasteners used. We assembled the pergola ourselves and did not find it particularly difficult - it's an erector set for adults :>) We are happy with the appearance of the pergola. One suggestion: the screen for the top is anchored only...

Love it !!!

The 16x12 Ashford Pergola is just what I needed for my west facing patio! The kit was easy to assemble, sturdy, and looks terrific!

Hawthorne 16x10ft Pergola

This is a beautiful pergola! It looks gorgeous on our back patio and is a perfect addition to our yard. It only took my 59 year old husband and his 68 year old brother 6 hours to put together! I highly recommend this product!

Outstanding buy !!!

We are absolutely in love with our pergola - it is solid steel , a beautiful elegant white and just perfect four our backyard . The additional electrical outlets are such a handy add on bonus !!

Awesome pergola!

This pergola is so beautiful and so well made! I love that it is steel and not wood and love the plug feature as well. Directions were straight forward and took 3 average guys about 6 hours to build

Sturdy, beautiful & no maintenance

We put our pergola up 10 months ago and we love it. At first the price was much higher than we wanted. We were going to build our own, but the idea of zero maintenance for years to come sold us. We had 2 guys come over to help my husband put it up & so hey had more fun than work. It was easy & done in a few hours. We’ve had storms & it doesn’t move or sway, so far no color fading or chipping or anything. If it continues like this it will be worth every penny! Only issue, the electrical box isn’...

Great addition to our back deck!

We bought the pergola last year and we love it! It's look and functionality are just what we wanted for our back deck. We get lots of compliments about it.

Very Sturdy

We love our pergola. Provides just enough shade and a designated area for lounging in what would have been an odd undefined space. Our wind in Texas has been crazy and it has not budged! Very strong and sturdy!

16x12 Ashford Traditional Steel Pergola

I bought this 1 year ago. Goes together well and still looks great. When I move I will dissemble and take it with me.

Very nice
