Costco Gazebo 12x20
Prefab (i.e. Costco) gazebo, or go to the lumbar yard?
Any Yardistry Gazebo Complaints?
Yardistry Gazebo Recommendations
I put mine on slab and then had to pour a couple of little concrete areas for 2 of the feet. I used redhead concrete sleeves and screws to secure to the ground. I also bought a couple of the roll down shades that I installed inside the unit. And bought the Yardistry mosquito cover thing too. All in all, never had an issue with feeling hotter under the gazebo. If anything, we feel cooler under the shade. The roof never made us feel hotter. I just recently installed a fan/light combo in the middle. Fairly easy to install if you know what you’re doing.
More on reddit.comWhat are y'alls thoughts and experiences with those prefab gazebos like the ones from Costco? Some of the reviews suggest that there's a good bit of fine tuning to make it all fit just right. To me that just sounds like it would just as fun to build one myself without the kit. My question is whether that's reasonable, or a fool's errand. What say you, experts?
