Purchased this pergola and was excited to get it assembled.  The delivery company wasn’t the best they dropped the boxes at the very end of the driveway in pouring rain.  Aside from that, very pleased with this product.  The assembly was grueling but the Bilt app really helped immensely.  The assembly took way longer than expected, part of that was on the assembler’s fault because he dove in without really reviewing the instructions.  The posts and brackets orientation to account for the slated roof could have been described better. They were initially installed backwards so there was additional time lost to un-assemble and re-assemble.  One the framework was built, the roof and latter steps were smooth and quick.  Overall, loving the purchase and the pergola is sturdy and beautiful.  It has held up perfectly with rain and severe thunderstorms (including hail).  I am pleased and I would recommend.
