We purchased the 10'x20' Pergola and… We purchased the 10'x20' Pergola and installed it a week ago. It was immediately put to the test with two consecutive days of very strong winds - strong enough that many people were still without power after the winds subsided. My entire house sounded like it might blow over. I frequently checked the pergola, which had the louvers closed, and it didn't budge during the strongest of gusts. I installed this pergola myself, with the help of a couple people. We were able to get the frame up and mounted in about 3 hours, and my wife and I installed the louvers in about another 3 hours after our help had left. I spent a little extra time custom cutting my posts and re-drilling the pilot holes to accommodate my patio's 3 inch grade over 20 ft. I installed directly on pavers with concrete footers beneath so I had to buy 6 inch concrete anchors instead of using the supplied 3 inch anchors. The customer service at Luxury Pergola is just as awesome as their product. Patrick was very helpful in answering my many technical questions or getting me in touch with someone who could answer my questions. He would even email/text me outside of their work hours. One thing I wished, prior to installing myself, was that they had a written manual to quickly reference screw sizes, parts, steps, etc. Perhaps there is one that I didn't find or ask for. I also wished they would have performed some installations on less than ideal surfaces - sloped surfaces, over pavers, possibly show how to custom cut, etc. However, it turned out perfect so I didn't really need it! Overall, awesome company and awesome product. We can't wait to get the sun shade screens when we can recover financially from all the work we have done on our house recently!

Don't pay 2x more for labor if you don't have to!!!! Recently purchased a property with a pretty barren backyard that needed some loving. Going the traditional route of hiring a local builders, having a designer come out, mock everything up digitally, paying for laborers etc, we were getting quotes exceeding 20k. Instead, going with the kit from luxurypergola and spending an weekend putting it up with the help of some buddies, we saved thousands but still got that expensive look. Recommend for anyone who's handy and looking to save on ridiculous labor costs these days.

Worth The Money I was really impressed with the luxury pergola. We got the 12 x 16 build, and it looks impressive. It took us 3-4 days to finish, and the hardest part was getting the beams up, as it requires 3 people at least to set up. I really like how simple it was to install, and the video really tells you everything you need to know to set up efficiently. Patrick was our sales rep, and he was really helpful in answering any questions we had when we called. Overall, I would recommend this product to a friend, and although the price is high, I would say it’s more than worth if you’re looking for a quality product that will last for a long time.

Best Decision Ever!!!!! All aspects of our experience with Luxury Pergola has been exceptionally positive. The majority of our experience has been with Brendan, one of the co-founders of the company. Brendan was very patient and detail oriented as he guided us through the purchase and installation process. It has been two months since installation and we love our pergola even more each day. Kudos to Brendan and all of the The Luxury Pergola staff.

Very good I'm now 95% done and very… Very good I'm now 95% done and very impressed with the pergula. I'm old school and the you tube instructions do not impress me. Some paper instructions especially with the super setup would help alot.
