SORARA Mirador 111S Louvered Pergola 10' x 13' Aluminum Gazebo with Adjustable Roof for Outdoor Deck Garden Patio, Charcoal

I love the finished product so much!I assembled it all by myself in about four hours AFTER I spent about 8 hours over two nights attaching the stupid brackets to the louvers. Like other reviewers I am scratching my head as to why this wasn't done at the factory since all the other pieces are pre-assembled down to the nuts and bolts.Otherwise assembly was intuitive and easy to follow, if you have any diy or furniture experience of any kind. I didn't watch the video, just read the directions several times in advance of starting and then went through it step by step.Other than the brackets, it was easy for one person and I'm 5'4" 130lbs female. I have a great Dane so I'm strong but by no means a superhero. If you're on the fence, DO IT! It is not bad as long as you know in advance you have to attach 48 brackets to 24 louvers and it is a tedious process even with an impact driver (make sure you have one before you start!).I am in LOVE with the end result and, more importantly, so is my pup! It seems very sturdy. When the bugs started to get bad towards the middle of July I put up screens. I used the gutter system (which is genius and WORKS!) as other reviewers had suggested to put up curtains and the screens with hooks. It keeps the rain out and I know we'll love being able to open the louvers in winter and spring to get some sun. For now the shade is perfect and it has quickly become my favorite "room" in the house!I initially had a snaffu with the shipping carrier and they couldn't figure out when or if they were coming, but Sorara was more than amenable and used me a refund right away. I ended up ordering this from them on another site (they used a different carrier), but I love it so much I wanted to review it here also. Definitely worth it!

10x20 model - I did a lot of research before purchasing. This one is carried by the big C member big box store. Compared to others, this is better with hidden strut connections. It took me a full day to put together - I only needed help lifting up and moving the 2 20 ft sides into place but otherwise I was able to put it together by myself. It was shipped and delivered within days (to NY) of ordering. It came in 5 long boxes on a triple pallet. The delivery people called day before and morning of - no issues. They must leave the pallet though. I considered ordering the screens but it provides enough shade so I don’t think I’ll need them for the 20 ft model. Someone mentioned that you should consider how the louvre as positioned in relation the South/Sun during summer with the best angle to counter afternoon Sun - I’d second that. It provides a complete cover from rain when fully closed, too. Great purchase! I think it is very durable and have no concerns with wind and snow since we had a different brand before at our last home and this is better quality.

I could not be happier with this pergola. It looks really sleek , it has that simple modern look I was looking for my house.The assembly was not too hard but it does take a while to put it all together between 2 people. it’s nice that they included extra hardware just in case something goes wrong. The only thing I can recommend is to be really careful when you are attaching the side lids onto the louvers , we were using a very powerful drill and we broke 2 screws and it’s impossible to get the screw after it breaks.It seems to be very sturdy. I love that I can open it and close the roof, specially when it’s open because it lets all the light shine thru it.Overall I would definitely recommend buying it, I received it only about 10 days after ordering it. A similar pergola installed by a professional company would probably cost about 10 to 15k.

I recently purchased the Mirador 111s 10x20 pergola, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The delivery was smooth and efficient, arriving by freight truck. The packaging was impressive—very strong cardboard that ensured all components were well-protected during transit.Assembly requires two people at a minimum, though having three people would make the process even smoother. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, allowing the pergola to come together beautifully without any major hiccups.The finished product has significantly enhanced the quality of life in our backyard. It's not only visually appealing but also functional, providing a perfect space for relaxation and outdoor gatherings. This pergola has truly transformed our outdoor area into a haven. Highly recommend!
