Outsunny 10' x 13' Patio Gazebo, Outdoor Gazebo Canopy Shelter with Netting and Curtains, Aluminum Frame for Garden, Lawn, Backyard and Deck

This is a really nice Gazebo. It is very sturdy & well built. Directions are self explanatory but could be confusing if you're not mechanically inclined. I assembled by myself but a second person wouldn't hurt especially when moving it into final position. It's screwed into the patio with Tapcon's so it shouldn't go anywhere but make sure you remove the canopy for a hurricane or tropical storm. During assembly, you may think it's missing a hole on the ends for the middle crossbar. It isn't, you use one of the existing bolts for the crossbar joint. Look closely at the picture on the instructions, you'll see it. The canvas isn't very thick and it has tiny holes which will allow water to drip or mist through and I doubt it will last very long but I put scotchguard (canvas waterproofing) on it so we'll see.

Update: bad wind storm ruined the top and sides, but manufacturer was very good about replacing them for free since it happened within the first year. I've had this up for about a month now. I'm giving it 5 stars because I like it a lot, but there are some issues people should be aware of. First, the negatives: -It's actually only 9.5' x 12.75'. -The fabric material feels thin and fragile. The 4 corner posts feel light, hollow, and fragile. I worry they will bend or break in a bad wind storm. So far, it has handled a few 20 mph wind storms like a champ. -The velcro doesn't stick well The positives: -It was very easy to put together. Took about 90 minutes and I was taking my time. I only needed a second person to hold the roof section up while I snapped in the corners. -It looks great and provides a lot of shade, the mosquito net works great as well.

UPDATE: I originally gave this 4 stars based on a few minor inconvenience's, but after today I felt it deserved all 5. We had a bad thunderstorm with 50+ mph gusts. We have it anchored into the deck so I wasn’t worried about it flying away, but I was worried about the canopy ripping. It is all still in perfect condition and I’m honestly shocked. 10/10! Easy set up with two people and looks great! I’d recommend using 3 people during the set up of the frame, but it’s doable with two. It was bigger than we expected but still fit our space perfectly. We ended up screwing it into the deck two weeks ago and haven’t had any issues with wind. The only reason for 4 stars is for a couple reasons. 1, the instructions are not very clear. 2, we didn’t like how the hooks that hold the curtain and screen are these thin, cheap plastic hooks. You’d basically have to take it all apart to ever replace them if they broke. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen. You will get wet during a heavy rainstorm, but that is to be expected with a cloth roof. But for the money it’s a nice gazebo that I’d recommend to others.

I tried to put up as many pictures as I could to help anyone who is looking into buying this gazebo ! I had read all the reviews before my purchase and there was this one particular review who had an issue with a missing pre-drilled hole and I chose to ignore it , my bad ! Anyways I’ve had this gazebo since a few months now and it has seen some bad winter time too and it’s stood up ! Let me start with the assembly, you wud require atleast one more person to help you , this thing is HUGE! But I managed to do it all by myself using ladder for support ! The assemble was fairly easy and the best part is they provide a bar scan to follow a video on YouTube for assembly ! I would say it was quite hard to put the top cover on so I would highly suggest to do that step before putting the frame on! After I had assembled the whole thing up including the top I realized there were two pre drilled holes missing !! Can you imagine the annoyance because it connects the top rods to it , and hence making the frame sturdy ,if you skip two rods I don’t know how long the frame would last or how sturdy it would be ! Please check for pre drilled holes before assembly Incase you need to make a return ! Since I had it all set up I just couldn’t fathom disassembling and retuning this huge monster ! It took me weeks to figure out what to do and this so the solution I came up with Pls check pictures for better understanding I took an extra bolt and used JB weld steel stick to glue it on the frame where the pre drilled holes were meant to be and then I was able to put the rod in place and used a nut and washer to finish the assembly,I used extra bolts I had ! Please make sure to let the JB with the bolt on it set for 24 to 48 hours ! (Purchased from Amazon ) So far it’s held up in super strong winds both the rods and the gazebo itself ! Also worth mentioning,One of the rods did have some white mysterious stuff on it (I’ve put up a picture of it ) no clue why it is or what it is ! I did not bolt it to the ground instead I used heavy duty sandbags (40 pounds of sand each) tied to all four corners of the gazebo ! They are huge but can be easily hidden pls check pictures for reference. During the rainy season ,the water did repel and things underneath it did stay dry ,but let’s not forget there’s a vent on top and some water may come through it ! While assembling pls do not tighten all screws or you’ll end up thinking the canopy isn’t fitting on top or other things aren’t falling in place ! The other issue you see in pictures are the bent frames ! But thankfully it didn’t ruin the function of the curtains ,pls make sure you’re putting in the right amount of curtain hooks provided ,one missing and there’s no way you can go back and put another one in after assembly !! I did have a few missing and that was my error and to fix it the only way of getting them in was by using pliers!! I did call the customer service , and they wanted to help but I wasn’t willing to accept their help at the cost of me disassembling this whole gazebo and returning it for a new one or new parts because none of that was an option for me ! I did ask them if they read reviews on their products and they said NO ! No wonder they aren’t able to fix issues before sending it off … it had a quality control stickers on all over the package so idk where they went wrong ! Go figure ! Coming back to the function of the gazebo ,the curtains provided are great ,the whole look of the gazebo is great , it’s pretty roomy ! Hoping it will last and not rip apart only time will tell Reason I’m giving it three stars is for all the hassle I went through and again I’m not sure how long it will last due to the missing pre drilled holes ,hopefully my solution works and it stays sturdy and helps someone whose already in the dilemma!

Overall, I do like the product. The material for outer shell is made of a strong fabric and its very nice in the brown color. It matches well with our outdoor furniture. It was a bit difficult to assemble because the instrcutions include a very basic step by step guide which includes photos of what your suppose to do and no written steps. It does show you which items are labeled to each part however not which side or any other critical details. I really like the double reinforced corners to help prevent the tent from wobbling. Where I am most disappointed was in the product I received. I laid out all the parts to see what is what and discovered as soon as I started a bend in one of the main posts. I found several others on the frame where the curtains hang as well. I was able to get the pieces to fit however it is noticeable where the damages are and effect the ability of the curtains sliding. I like how the material is metal but not how easy it bent. Not sure what to do at this point but I would like a replacement or replacement parts because it by far still one of the best iv seen around.
