Really love this pergola not easy to assemble but once up it great roof easy to open and close fits over my table and six chairs we had a shower of rain and everyone was sheltered great buy
This was very easy to assemble, delivered quickly, and packaged well. It looks great in the garden and can be easily opened or closed for shade or sun, great value for money
Looks amazing and such a good price – highly recommended. Good instructions for putting together too – you just need to watch which way the holes point to make sure you have the right leg in the right place. BBQing will be so much more enjoyable going forward now. Really glad I chose this.
This was delayed, but after contacting them it was quickly resolved. It is now built and I’m very impressed. Very sturdy and looks great in our garden. Would definitely recommend.
Took 4 hours to build. Two person job. Looks lovely. But it does move around on the patio on a normal windy day. There’s nothing to secure it to the ground.
How do people secure it to prevent it from moving around – what are you all using? I don’t think this structure will last long.
Well built, straightforward to erect. Took me about an hour to assemble main units on my own and then just needed a hand to lift and insert bottom part of the legs. The way the fittings go together means you cant put them together wrong. Overall quality excellent. Quick delivery and good customer service.
Only negative is that rainwater can collect in the cover between the bars. I inserted spacers under the top bar to raise it and that has mainly solved this problem.
My mate, who’s a gardner, is also feeling under the weather so I’m using him as an excuse to not make a start on the back garden this year. Instead I’m spending most of my downtime lying around watching Sky Sports and listening to all the Lewis Hamilton fanboys getting super excited for his switch to Ferarri…
Good quality, strong and sturdy pergola. The canapy was tricky to fit as instructions were a bit sketchy. The only slight critism is the canopy doesn’t stay at the outer edge when it’s windy. It blows to the middle.
I’ve now been using this for a month. It provides good shade when positioned correctly. The fabric can be moved up and down each side – see pictures to track the sun.
It provides privacy from neighbours as well.
I’ve found I’m using my outdoor space so much more now I have this.
I highly recommend this product, although only similar ones are available now under a different company name.
My only criticism would be the fabric could have been a bit wider and go to the edges of the metal structure. I may yet add further fabric as time goes on. See how it lasts.
Considering similar things (not as good in my opinion) are available in B&Q etc for double the price, I think this is great value, for a good simple, functional design.
Has made my garden special & a more enjoyable outdoor space.
It is exactly what we wanted. It goes together very easily. Just make sure you measure correctly and measure twice. Otherwise it may not be square. It will still work, but it is going to be better if you measure properly. Love it. Highly recommend.
Great product, fantastic customer, easy to follow instructions and easy to erect. Would certainly recommend. Couldnt have been more helpful with a slight issue but sorted straight away.
Thank you
When opening the box and checking parts, some items are inside the legs so don’t think things are missing like I did.
My build was not straight forward, we have mounted it on our deck which is tiered, I had to shorten one leg and extend three (see photo).
Only one very minor point, the middle hooks (P2) needed a 90 degree twist so that they lined up with the canopy rods (H1 and H2).
Goods arrived4 days early

For fee
The metal structure is nice and strong, the metal plates at the pole going into the ground has holes for garden peg or ground screws. As long as all the bolts are fasten the structure will resists to wobble and will stand straight. The canopy is made of waterproof materials, rain will not get through etc. It block sun enough to create a cool shaded area in the summer.
When not in use the canopy can be split in two from the middle, Velcro strap to tie down to stop it from flapping around in the wind etc. The folds in between the poles will trap some water and in fully closed position it will squeeze most of the water out.
The canopy is not designed to be easily removed, each of the pole and middle section needs to be removed in order to take out the cloth which I am not happy about, I will have to make some changes to how the canopy is “hanged” as I like to take it off and put back on as and when needed.
Overall it is a nice low budget pergola, can be built quickly and can be taken down easily as long as the bolt threads are not damaged. Now I need some nice garden furnitures to finish the luxury look.
Update. Three years on, this product has far exceeded my expectations. Against the product advice it has stood out permanently through three summers and winters, surviving gales and snow. Aside from slinging cord over to tie it down in forecast exceptional storms (more to stop the cover blowing away across the fields than anything else), it has stood up to everything. The roof cover is now wearing thin, and small holes/rips are appearing at the six points where the canvas rubs on frame bolts, but the frame and paintwork is sound. A pity that it seems difficult to source a well-fitting replacement cover (I am contemplating making a solid roof from polycarbonate sheet or some other material.
