I've got a 12x12 one and it's been about four years and it's still as beautiful as when I first assembled. I did stain it last year as it was fading. Covers my hottub perfectly. I went with 16" round cement forms/posts about 4' into the ground which are about 1" higher than the patio pavers so drainage is no issue. I used four bolts per leg into the concrete. Nothing mother nature can throw at this thing except a tornato, but the legs will probably still be attached because that concrete weighs more than the gazebo. We have a Sunsetter awning for the main patio 10'x25' which is attached to the house. We leave it up all summer because I've got the add-on rainaway arches and deflappers. It's very strong, all alluminum and the legs lock onto the patio. I've got the screen kit for the Gazebo, it is good quality and we like it but hardly use it. The only thing left, I'm going to add gutters to the gazebo because rain can pool between the two. Looks like they sell a gutter kit now as well.
Do you have any problems with leaking through the peak cap nut? Mine is leaking from the middle of the peak cap nut where it is hollow. I’m not sure how to fix it.
After so many years of replacing the canvas roof Gazebos and walking past the Costco display of their Grand Gazebo, every spring, I finally bought it. With help of my (structural engineer and newly minted PE) son and a handyman, we assembled it over a couple days. Finally! A permanent cedar gazebo with a sturdy and non pliable, metal roof! I bragged to my wife who looked over our project with what I interpreted as cautious approval. As I was looking up to admire the shiny, double sided, plastic preserved roof, I noticed some dark clouds building in the sky and was thankful that we finished the project before the storm came and most importantly, secured all four legs so that hurricane winds could not carry it away. It seemed that we had done our homework until, to my dismay and horror, it happened. At first, there was rain and then, wind. I looked out our patio windows to see how it was holding up. The Gazebo stood rock solid and completely unphased by the torrent violence of the winds. Finally, the winds let up and I heard a small click. Then, more clicks and dings. Oh no! Hail storm..haha. 1/4-1/2 inch hail rained down on our gazebo roof, bouncing into a neatly outlined, square pile on our deck. Later, I assessed the damage on our poor gazebo roof….noth’n!! I could hardly believe that there were no dents. Wow, I thought. That’s the power of Costco!
That's good to hear, the roof is fairly thin so maybe it flexed when I was getting pounded by hail and didn't dent. Who knows, could be engineered for that! 😃
@@MG77740 I called the company multiple times they said that they stain the unit but recommend stainng at after the first 3-6 mos. The stain I show in the video is durable and long-lasting, well at least in San Diego!
Do you think it'll hold up in strong winds? Anchored into concrete, of course.. I was thinking about replacing my current gazebo with one of these before hurricane season hits...
❤❤❤Love this Costco gazebo. This year we upgraded with a our old tv. The ZeboZAP tv Mount allows you to strap a tv to the Costco gazebo or any gazebo including metal without drilling. Love the tv in the gazebo 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
It is a great build time consuming because some of the details on instructions are totally backasswards but looks great when it's finished. We did ours and made a taller like bartop table on 1side w/hadock blocks and wrapped them with air stone and we did other side our outdoor kitchen grill & sink wrapped that in air stone and turned out great. We have ours for almost 5yrs now and we live in country wide open nothing blocking no trees & winds get up to 20- 60mph all the time. Has held up great.i just put clear coat of stain on all wood at beging of summer usually in May and we are in Texas so heat is extremely hot.
Nice video. I just purchased and installed one with my father-in-law. The instructions (as so many people have mentioned) are sub-par at best and it's imperative that one has A LOT of patience. My question(s) are: 1. Do you have a video showing how you ran your electricity from the gazebo to your main house? 2. Do you know if I can use an existing indoor ceiling fan (that I replaced with another ceiling fan) for use in this gazebo? 3. Do you have a video showing your staining process? Did you tape off the screw/bolt areas or were you just careful around those? Thank you.
Lightly sand and prime it before you paint it. Home depot sells paint and primer in one, but its a gimick. You need real primer, then paint. I am a professional painter by trade.
I stained mine with a dark brown semi, and was amazed how nice it looked after. I don't think there is any way to make this gorgeous gazebo look bad, the cedar is really nice.
just got the 12 X 14 foot, with delivery was 2,200. The boxes with posts each weighed 270 pounds, the flat box was close to that, but weight wasn't listed.
@@dmt66 They dropped them on my drive way and I needed to move them to my back yard; too heavy for my back, I bought a 2x4, a handle from HF with some 5" wheels $3.99 to make a dolly worked perfect; easy move.
I'm thinking about one of these for my yard. Does the metal roof radiate heat down into the seating area? Sure, it blocks the sun, but that dark metal roof must get super-hot
Hi, my question is, when it rains, does it sound very loud? I’m a little hesitant to install one in my back patio if it will be super loud 😬 or is it loud but not annoying loud? Idk if I’m explaining myself here. Custom made with wood and roofing are super expensive so a gazebo sounds more affordable. Any thoughts?
Hi David, thanks for the video, encouraged me to pull the trigger and get one, Costco should give you a commission. I am going to install mine this weekend, if you don’t mind sharing what size anchor bolts did you use to anchor it down?
Hi there, we are having our garden landscaped and I was hoping to get this gazebo. However, our garden will slope down so the water drains away from the house. The instructions on the gazebo say that this can only be installed on a flat surface so I thought that this would not be suitable for us. However, you mentioned that your garden slopes and that you added blocks to lift a couple of the corner pillars. How have you installed in a sloped garden please?
Quick question. I also am installing on a concrete patio and I didn’t see that you put any anchors into the gazebo legs. Is it necessary to install them ? We just got it done and would rather not drill into the patio if we don’t have to. Thanks for the info and great video!
Great video. The gazebo looks beautiful..... Did you have any long term issues with cutting holes in the pillars for the flush electrical boxes. Thanks for the video.
@DavidDemangos, hope all is well. Im considering purchasing the gazebo. How is it in the heat of summer. I want to place in an area that gets lots of son and is very hot. Does it get hot under the gazebo or does it lower the temperature? Thanks
Just got my Gazebo and am waiting for the permit for a patio to clear before I unbox. Is it recommended to stain and, if so, would it be better to stain it before assembly (as I will have a lot of time between the permit being issued and the construction of the patio taking place)?
Staining before assembly is always ideal. Once the roof and everything is on you can't really get to a lot of the roof areas. It will take more work before assembly but definitely a better outcome.
I live in Arizona ,the sun is eating the wood I am trying to decide...Stain or elastomeric Paint... Oh did you stain underside of the roof supports?? Mine look fine.
Yardistry recommends transparent stain. You can do whatever you want. The benefit of transparent is that it keeps the wood grain visible. Yes I did stain the under side even though it didn't look like it needed it. 👍
@@DavidDemangos Hey thanks for the quick response.... I will be addressing this issue after the summer!!!! I appreciate your help. Your gazebo looks great.
Absolutely anchored to the ground. A strong gust of wind easily move the unit even though it's heavy. And.. it's the easiest part of the installation! Haha 😆
Do you have any problems with leaking through the peak cap nut? Mine is leaking from the middle of the peak cap nut where it is hollow. I’m not sure how to fix it.
I am thinking about buying this. However I have pavers all through the my patio. In your opinion should it be anchored to pavers? That’s my only concern. My handyman says it will hold up to winds. Unless there hurricane strong winds. I’m in S. Cali and we get pretty strong gusts at times. Maybe 50-70 mph gusts.
David- Just got mine put together a couple weeks back. You started to talk about it, but lost your train of thought. When did you stain/seal it? Obviously Yardistry says 3 months, did you follow that?
I would have stained around 6 months I didn't know Yardistry recommended 3 mos. at at that point. If I remember I think I did it at the 2-year mark but our weather is really forgiving in San Diego.
@@DavidDemangos Hi David! Is there a reason why you did not seal it with, say "Thompson's WaterSeal Multi-Surface Waterproofer"? I am about to stain mines with the exact stain you used and wondering if you recommend sealing it when finished with the stain. I guess if you can go back would you still do the same or also seal it? I live in SoCal so not a lot of rain usually (this year was crazy weather lol) Thanks
We love our Yardistry gazebo as well, but we have a white chalky substance bleeding through the stain on some of the posts. I know Yardistry says not to sand before applying a maintenance coat of stain, but I can't apply stain over the white chalky substance. I'm in the process of trying to remove this, I'm thinking sanding, scraping, or maybe I can power wash it off before applying stain. Have you encountered this?
@DavidDemangos I love your TH-cam on your Yardistry gazebo. I just finished install of my 12x20 and want to stain it a different color as you did. My question is did you overstrain the original color that came from manufacturer? If so did you see any color change from the color you chose? Thank you.
Do you mind sharing the color code? I can not see the color code clearly in the video. If you have another video with the code, please provide the link or title name.
I am stuck on step 26 Attached Twist Brackets They don't align up with gaps on top and on some post gap is on the bottom. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
I purchased the yardistry gutters and noticed it has 2 downspouts but you only have 1 installed. I would like to have them both on the same side (furthest) away from the house but not seeing an option to do that. The measurements will be short if I add them to one side only. You were able to get away with one; assuming you may have cut short on that side but how were you able to have the right lengths on each side? Appreciate your assistance.
Any rain gutter expert will advise you. Two would be better, I'm lucky to get a quarter inch of rain out of these babies since San Diego is a semi or desert! Lol
@@DavidDemangos any chance we can chat live? I don't understand how the were able to complete the opposite side without using the downspout on it. The measurements are exact for each side and if you did not add the downspout how did you achieve connecting it? (The down spout is roughly 2-3 inches.
I used small pieces of wood in a specific size so it came out level. I stained them with three coats although there's hardly ever water here so they've been holding up for years.
@@DavidDemangos thanks man! We are gonna purchase this exact model and my patio I put in last year slopes for rain purposes. Not ideal but nice to know someone else encountered this too
Sorry I might have missed it, did you use the Yardistry gutters or buy from somewhere else? If bought somewhere else, can you please mention where? Thank you.
I think after 4 years that might be just your shavings working their way through ... believe it or not, its a better chance that those are shavings because your project is all cedar. I will keep my finger crossed for you.
No but it's funny you ask. We actually thought about making that a pool without the intention when we poured the concrete for kids. It was basically so our kids could have fun on their bikes in the backyard since our front yard is really small. 👍
We just purchased ours, was on sale. Video is super awesome and helpful David thank you! Question - really want to do the gutters do you have information on them please?
The seamless rain gutters the best thing we ever did. No water dripping from the roof. You should decide if you want one or two downspouts. Where do you live?
@@DavidDemangos right but the color was a nice brown/coffee that matched my patio and now its ugly AF. Lol. Wonder if they could be painted but they get so hot in the summer so i dunno

Me too!
Just bought one. Having installed this week. Can’t wait. Blinds are a great idea. Will be looking into that. Thanks for tips and video.
Remember, the blinds need to be custom-ordered if you do the wide one. Some people split them in half and put two per section.
Near Gillespie Field I presume from the sound of that Cessna. Beautiful btw. Appreciate the upload ❤
Near airport, actually Montgomery.
Nice gazebo and video. I did find your comment funny about you "doing a lot of yard work" since you have no grass and only a few potted plants.
A little yard work 😀

No video for electrical. Use an outdoor fan. Stained with foam brush and avoided bolts.
Very nice. Gave me some good ideas for the one I just put up. Thanks for posting!
I have the same exact Gazebo from Costco, only difference is that I hired an electrician and had power run and fan installed.
Excellent, I'm sure they did a better job than me and my weekend warrior buddy!
Where did you get that ceiling fan? I love it!
It was either Costco or Home Depot. Make sure you get an outdoor.
It's a Hunter brand but they've seemed to gone down in quality over the last 10 years so beware.
Awesome. I think I might order one, but instead of staining, i might just paint it to match my house. Great job, and thanks for the video!

Electrical was run through the pillars and holes drilled in the studs.
Where can i find details on your guitar system?
I hired a gutter company.
The gazebo is aging slower than yourself - lol - just kidding. Thanks for the info.
Did you stain all the roof beams and framing or just the areas exposed to the elements?
I stained the roof beams. It only needs it about every other time I stain the entire structure.
Great video
Thank you 👍
Sorry I might have missed it, did you use the Yardistry gutters or buy from somewhere else? If bought somewhere else, can you please mention where? Thank you.
I just went on to Google and looked at rain gutter companies in my area.
@@DavidDemangos thanks!
@@DavidDemangos How much did the gutters installed set you back?
@@shanew7361 $550
@@DavidDemangos That's a decent price 👌
I think after 4 years that might be just your shavings working their way through ... believe it or not, its a better chance that those are shavings because your project is all cedar. I will keep my finger crossed for you.
Can you expound on "shavings"? Is my structure ready to fail?
@@DavidDemangos He meant to say savings and not shavings. Those savings are catching up to you now!
Hi. How hot does it get with the metal roof? Good job with the review.
It's tall enough so that I don't think anybody would ever experience radiant heat.
Was that a pool filled in with rocks?
No but it's funny you ask. We actually thought about making that a pool without the intention when we poured the concrete for kids. It was basically so our kids could have fun on their bikes in the backyard since our front yard is really small. 👍
Have you found a way to heat it in the cooler days and nights?
Good idea but I wouldn't consider it with the utility costs in San Diego!
Late spring they're only $1600.
$1,600 is a steal today.
Good video looking to buy one for my house 👍🏻
What part of the country are you in?
@@DavidDemangos im in point loma
They are on sale right now. 500 dollars off 1399.99 sales end on 4/9/23
Hi David, did you anchor the gazebo to concrete using bolts?
Yes, since I'm in San Diego and it's hardly ever windy I used one bolt per leg.
Anchor plates on the wide side instead of narrow side? I thought directions say to put it on the shorter side of the base?
Where did you get then fan.

what rain gutters did you use
Are you a seamless rain gutters in San Diego.
I’m from San Diego. Did you need a permit?
Yes, you pretty much need a permit to do anyting in San Diego now unfortunately. 😲
We just purchased ours, was on sale.
Video is super awesome and helpful David thank you!
Question - really want to do the gutters do you have information on them please?
The seamless rain gutters the best thing we ever did. No water dripping from the roof. You should decide if you want one or two downspouts. Where do you live?
Where are the curtains from?
I got them from Bali blinds, you could probably find a cheaper alternative that's pretty good.
@@DavidDemangos thanks for the info! :)
My roof discolored/tarnished. Terrible. I see it on other ones in the area too. I may have to replace the whole roof. Anyone else?
They seem to tarnish very quickly however they're metal so I don't see much need to do a replacement unless it's rusting.
@@DavidDemangos right but the color was a nice brown/coffee that matched my patio and now its ugly AF. Lol. Wonder if they could be painted but they get so hot in the summer so i dunno
What blinds are those?
Bali, custom made. Wait for them to go on sale they're very expensive.
Nice, what size is that one?
Want to get one for the 14' side of my gazebo but at least at Home depot the bali blind go up to almost 12 feet. I guess I can get 2
Emmanuel De Leon I had Bali make two custom 12 footers on sale and I got them for around $800 shipped.

I'm not sure what you're asking.
