What the reviewers say

For these and many other reasons, Wayfair shoppers were impressed with this outdoor structure.

Pros

“It’s not an expensive, top-of-the-line canopy, but it keeps the sun from hitting us – it does exactly what I bought it to do. Easy to set up with two people. It stayed up even in light winds and heavy rain. The rain didn’t it penetrated nor ran down the sides. It is long enough to accommodate a patio table and six chairs without any problems.

Another reviewer agreed: “I love my gazebo! It’s super sturdy and very easy to set up. We’ve enjoyed many mosquito-free nights in our beautiful gazebo. An absolutely great way to enjoy and escape the sun!”

This buyer used the gazebo to create a little outdoor oasis: “I love this thing! I turned it into an outdoor theater room. The grandkids and I watch movies and don’t have to go far.”

Cons

One buyer warns that the fabric may be questionable. “The gazebo style of the tent was very pretty and looked great in my backyard – however, there were some dark stains on the fabric.”

This last fan had a problem with the ties used to pull the curtains. “It was very easy to set up and seems very sturdy. Perfect for keeping the hot Florida sun off of you. Everything lines up perfectly. Some tethers on the screen came loose very easily. They are not very secure, but don’t change anything, because there are many ties.”

This was designed to be a “semi-permanent structure”. Translation: You can show off your good taste from spring to football season. When it’s time to put it away, use the storage bag that comes with it.
