MASTERCANOPY Outdoor Garden Gazebo for Patios with Stable Steel Frame and Netting Walls (8x8,Dark Gray)

I bought this in October, put it together in December, by myself as a 5'6 female and had NO PROBLEMS! The instructions were clear and concise, the parts fit perfect and I have essentially LIVED in this canopy tent since I put it up. It's been my saving grace for relaxation and just enjoying the outside. Until... last month I had a tornado rip through my backyard. It picked it up and threw it into my house. I was unable to assess the damage until tonight, March. I have no idea how to fix it. Pieces are bent and broke and I have cried so hard. I have no idea how to order replacement parts. The canopy top itself is perfectly intact. The metal bars and two of the legs however, have met their match. I am absolutely devastated because I have RAVED about this product, but I cannot afford to buy another one, as this was what I had worked MONTHS of overtime to be able to afford. I cannot find a way to get in contact with anyone to see if I can buy replacement parts of the frame, because again the canopy top remained PERFECT!! I cannot speak enough good about this canopy, but I am beyond devastated that I cannot fix this myself. It just doesn't make sense for it to be a total loss when the canopy itself is in PERFECT condition!

Overall this was a good product. The assembly instructions were relatively easy to follow, and the finished product was a good quality. We were also pleased at how easy it was to take the tent portion down at the end of the season. About the only thing we hadn’t been anticipating was the loss of color due to sunlight on the exterior. it did a good job of providing shade and cover from the rain however, so it clearly did its job.

I purchased this a year ago. Super easy to put up and was a great spot on my deck to hang out bug and and sun free. Unfortunately it did not hold up to the New England winter and collapsed early spring after a windstorm. I had it secured well to the deck, the metal actually bent and collapsed. I looked into purchasing a heavier, more sturdy model but this would require reinforcement of my old deck, much more difficult transport and assembly, and quite a bit more expense. I decided for ~$200, this model is worth the price even if it doesn’t hold up so I bought it again. I put it in a less windy location this time and plan to take it down for the winter so hopefully we’ll get a few years out of it this time.

Update: 1 storm and it is now torn up and unusable. Too late to return to AmazonEasy to put up by yourself! You only need 1 screwdriver and hammer for ground pegs if you’re not drilling into wood or concrete.

mine has a brown top. the gazebo was easy to set up/install with 2 people. it didn;t take as long as the instructions say. i am handy though.the downside is that the top piece does not have velcro so the meshing will not stay in place and the squirrels did a number on the meshing. the way the main support bar for the meshing makes it difficult to use the hangers and open the meshing up. fortunately this only affects us on one side as the other three sides do not have access. just a design flaw to work around.otherwise, it does what it is supposed to do. mine is attached to a wood deck. so it won;t blow during a storm. i would never put up one of these gazebos or any other lightweight gazebo on soil for that reason.

I purchased this Gazebo in mid-June and put it together myself. It was very easy and the instructions were simple. The canopy quality seems to be great. It’s only been 6 weeks in use but there are no signs of wear at all. The sun has been brutal all summer and the navy blue has not faded whatsoever. I used the stakes in the ground for high winds and it hasn’t moved at all. Very sturdy. The screen quality and zippers are made well too and it does its job keeping the bugs out. I highly recommend this product.

We ordered this tent as a way to sit outside without being chewed on by mosquitoes and it works great! It was easy to assemble—thanks hubby! It took him about an hour and 30 minutes to build. We’ve placed a tall fan nearby to keep us cool in this Texas heat. It’s constructed so well. The zippers are strong and durable and the netted fabric is woven well. We’re so excited to spend the 4th outside today! It looks great on the deck too.

I wouldn’t say “easy to assemble “ but the finished product is well worth the effort. It’s super cool!
